Synopsis

European, North American, Canadian, and South Asian scientists joined forces to create the definitive handbook for the chemistry of surface and colloidal systems, incorporating the massive amount of data required by surface research chemists into a single volume. With this handbook, searching through journals for a piece of data becomes obsolete. Expertly compiled and reviewed, the Handbook of Surface and Colloid Chemistry not only provides you with an exhaustive resource for locating data, but it also summarizes recent developments in research. All the facts you need in the laboratory or in the classroom are at your fingertips in a unique style and form that provide an ideal guide for planning future research.

About this title

Review

"The second edition of the handbook brings the reader the most recent developments in surface and colloid chemistry. The theoretical basis of colloids and their stability is thoroughly described. [T]his handbook with extensive data in the form of tables and figures is very helpful ." - Colloid and Polymer Science, 2004 "Each chapter in this book is authored by an expert in a relevant branch of surface or colloid chemistry. The scope of the book includes interfacial film structures for this film formation and emulsion formation, contact angle and adsorption studies to characterize solid surfaces and the impact of scanning tunneling microscope and atomic force microscope on surface science should be useful as a first source of reference to those with an interest in these areas." - Basis Volume Limited, 2003 "represents a well-written and well-organized volume each chapter effectively presents the fundamental physical chemistry that underlies the topic at hand as well as the current status of research in the area no other compilation or general textbook contains the wide array of information presented here the writing is excellent throughout and the illustrations and graphs are in most cases very goodmany of the chapters are of extremely high quality and by themselves offer excellent reference material for the established researcher or the beginning graduate student." -L. Andrew Lyon, Georgia Institute of Technology, Journal of American Chemical Society, Vol. 125, No. 28, 2003
