"Fundamentals of Interfacial Engineering" provides chemical, electronic, mechanical, and biomedical engineers with a coherent, integrated introduction to the fundamental concepts that relate to interfacial phenomena with applications to different processes and product situations. This book emphasizes the importance of intermolecular forces in holding materials together within a bulk phase or across an interface. It outlines the fundamental intermolecular interactions that occur in all interfacial systems. The work also describes the properties, processing, and behavior of fluid interfacial systems and treats solid surfaces and interfaces.In addition to being of direct industrial relevance, this book will provide engineering instructors with an excellent starting point for planning curriculum development in this important area.

An authoritative account of theory, methods and applications of colloid science, extensively updated with new developments and results. The Colloidal Domain delivers a comprehensive and up-to date treatment of colloid science theory, methods and applications emphasizing the molecular interactions that determine properties on the colloidal length-scale. The book gives an authoritative account of the science describing the colloidal domain. Concept maps preceding each chapter put subject matter into perspective. Numerous worked examples illustrate key concepts, and more than 250 illustrations help to clarify processes described. Exercises are provided at the end of each chapter. In this new edition all chapters have been revised with inclusion of novel developments and original results. Special emphasis on Chemical potential as a central concept in the description of colloidal systems Experimental methods for studying surfaces and interfacesThe molecular aspect of electrostatic interactionsA comprehensive overview of scattering methodsA classification of interparticle forces based on molecular mechanismsFunction of bilayer systems in a biological contextAssociation behaviour of biopolymersAmyloid formation as a colloidal instabilitySynthesis of colloidal particlesLiquid-liquid phase separation as a general phenomenonEmphasizing role of monolayer spontaneous curvature in emulsions and foamsThe Colloidal Domain is an indispensable resource for students, scientists and professionals in molecular bioscience, chemistry and chemical engineering. Applications span a wide range from cellular phenomena, formulation problems, pharmaceutical science, food technology, coating processes, cosmetics development, ceramics and paper products.
