Colloid Science Principles, Methods and Applications

Аннотация

This book has grown out of the Spring School in Colloid Science, a one-week course which has been run in the School of Chemistry at Bristol University, during the Easter vacation, every year since 1972. Indeed, this is ‘the book of the course’, since its contents form the basis of the material that is delivered in the lectures. Like the course, this book is primarily intended as a basic introduction to colloid and interface science for those with a first degree in chemistry or physics, or some closely related discipline (e.g. pharmacy, biochemistry), who are working in an industrial R&D laboratory, or indeed a government or university laboratory, and who need to learn the basics of this subject for their research.
