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   Technologies   Covers industrial and domestic uses - from life   science-related applications right through to industrial processes.   Part Two: Surfactants    Thoroughly 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 Surfaces    Provides full information on four important colloidal   systems such as:   — Solid dispersions (suspensions)   — Foams   — Vesicles and liposomes   — Microemulsions    Part Four: Phenomena in Surface Chemistry    Extensively 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 Chemistry    To assist the researcher focussing on a particular   problem the section is organised by surface   parameter rather than by method or technique.
