The 'Handbook of Applied Surface and Colloid Chemistry' is a unique reference work that addresses the most important applications, phenomena and analytical techniques of wet surface chemistry. Including an enormous wealth of mainly practically orientated information it is written by an international team of renowned scientists and delivers with authority and experience content that thoroughly covers all the major applications.Helpfully organised into five parts the two volumes incorporate a double column format and numerous diagrams. The user-friendly structure allows readers to rapidly locate topics of particular interest and the clearly defined sections present the topic in a thorough and comprehensive manner.Part One: Surface Chemistry in Important TechnologiesCovers industrial and domestic uses - from life science-related applications right through to industrial processes.Part Two: SurfactantsThoroughly addresses the key properties and applications of the most important surfactants - the main tool in surface and colloid chemistry.Part Three: Colloidal Systems and Layer Structures at SurfacesProvides full information on four important colloidal systems such as:-- Solid dispersions (suspensions)-- Foams-- Vesicles and liposomes-- MicroemulsionsPart Four: Phenomena in Surface ChemistryExtensively reviews the important phenomena of foam breaking, solubilization, rheological effects of surfactants, as well as wetting, spreading and penetration.Part Five: Analysis and Characterization in Surface ChemistryTo assist the researcher focussing on a particular problem the section is organised by surface parameter rather than by method or technique.

Many industrial formulations such as detergents, paints, foodstuff and cosmetics contain both surfactants and polymers and their interaction govern many of the properties. This book is unique in that it discusses the solution chemistry of both surfactants and polymers and also the interactions between the two. The book, which is based on successful courses given by the authors since 1992, is a revised and extended version of the first edition that became a market success with six reprints since 1998. Surfactants and Polymers in Aqueous Solution is broad in scope, providing both theoretical insights and practical help for those active in the area.This book contains a thorough discussion of surfactant types and gives information of main routes of preparation. A chapter on novel surfactants has been included in the new edition. Physicochemical phenomena such as self-assembly in solution, adsorption, gel formation and foaming are discussed in detail. Particular attention is paid to the solution behaviour of surfactants and polymers containing polyoxyethylene chains. Surface active polymers are presented and their interaction with surfactants is a core topic of the book. Protein-surfactant interaction is also important and a new chapter deals with this issue. Microemulsions are treated in depth and several important application such as detergency and their use as media for chemical reactions are presented. Emulsions and the choice of emulsifier is discussed in some detail. The new edition also contains chapters on rheology and wetting.Surfactants and Polymers in Aqueous Solution is aimed at those dealing with surface chemistry research at universities and with surfactant formulation in industry.

Extensively revised and expanded, this timely reference discusses the synthesis, properties, and potential applications of popular and emerging surfactant compounds and systems. This reference reflects current research trends in green surfactants, the production of surfactants using biotechnological methods, and surfactants based on natural building blocks. Offering nearly 2000 valuable references, the Second Edition contains five new chapters analyzing aspects of natural surfactants, and examines surfactants produced by microorganisms, surfactant types based on sugar as hydrophilic building block, and surfactant classes based on fatty acids as hydrophobic building block.

This book gives the reader an introduction to the field of surfactants in solution as well as polymers in solution. Starting with an introduction to surfactants the book then discusses their environmental and health aspects. Chapter 3 looks at fundamental forces in surface and colloid chemistry. Chapter 4 covers self-assembly and 5 phase diagrams. Chapter 6 reviews advanced self-assembly while chapter 7 looks at complex behaviour. Chapters 8 to 10 cover polymer adsorption at solid surfaces, polymers in solution and surface active polymers, respectively. Chapters 11 and 12 discuss adsorption and surface and interfacial tension, while Chapters 13- 16 deal with mixed surfactant systems. Chapter 17, 18 and 19 address microemulsions, colloidal stability and the rheology of polymer and surfactant solutions. Wetting and wetting agents, hydrophobization and hydrophobizing agents, solid dispersions, surfactant assemblies, foaming, emulsions and emulsifiers and microemulsions for soil and oil removal complete the coverage in chapters 20-25.

Comprehensive guide to the fundamentals and growing range of commercial applications of natural surfactants Natural Surfactants: Science, Technology, and Industrial Aspects discusses the origin, production, physico-chemical properties, major producers, status, and opportunities of natural surfactants from macro- and microorganisms. The book presents the latest research in the field of natural surfactants, reviewing their advantages, current and future applications based on structure-performance relationships, and commercial uses in diverse industries including vaccines, food emulsifiers, feed additives, personal care formulations, pharmaceuticals, crop protection formulations, soil remediation and microbial enhanced oil recovery. The book contains introductory sections on each of the major classes of natural surfactants with each section broken down into subchapters discussing their biochemical and commercial features. It has a chapter on the analytical techniques used for the characterisation of natural surfactants and their producing microorganisms. It closes with a chapter on future perspectives, discussing hurdles and opportunities for natural surfactants. Authored by experts in the field of surfactant science with experience in both academic research and industrial practices, Natural Surfactants includes information on: The chemical structure and the physicochemical propertiesThe biological activityThe production process, including, as appropriate, extraction or fermentation strategies and conditions, microorganism strains, medium composition, and purification techniquesThe economics of production for the major classesA comprehensive review of the existing industrial uses and of the potential new applications as it can be inferred from the match of physicochemical properties and market demands.Natural Surfactants contains essential knowledge on the subject for academic researchers and industry practitioners working in the field of surfactant science. The text is also valuable for universities, research institutes, and regional and multinational companies active in surfactants production and/or in their formulation.
