Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

The first volume of "Foundations of Colloid Science" was essentially an advanced textbook of colloid science, suitable for students and researchers in the areas of colloid science, surface chemistry and polymer studies. Volume 2 contains material which has been extended to include some important new areas, and topics discussed in the first volume are developed to a much greater depth. An introductory chapter on the theory of liquids describes the concept of correlation functions and the use of Fourier transforms to analyze the scattering of light and neutrons by colloidal systems. Adsorption is given detailed coverage and a chapter on electrokinetics introduces a new approach to time dependent processes in the double layer. The principles of double layer theory are also used to review the behaviour of thin films and emulsions (both macro and micro). A final chapter on the rheology of colloidal suspensions calls on many of the concepts discussed earlier to bring some cohesion to this rapidly developing field.
