This fundamental book on interfacial phenomena forms the basis of application of interface and
colloid science to various disperse systems. These include suspensions emulsions
nano-dispersions wetting spreading deposition and adhesion of particles to surfaces. These
systems occur in most industrial applications such as personal care and cosmetic formulations
pharmaceutical systems particularly for controlled and targeted delivery of drugs agrochemical
formulations and enhancement of their biological performance paints and coatings as well as
most food formulations. These applications are described in volume 2. The text is very valuable
for formulation chemists chemical engineers and technologies who are involved in such
applications. In addition this fundamental text is also valuable for research scientists and
Ph.D. students investigating various aspects of interface and colloid science.
