Introduction to Colloid and Surface Chemistry – hinnat ja saatavuus

Duncan Shaw’s classic Introduction to Colloid and Surface Chemistry has been a concise and accessible entry into the field. With significant advancements since the 1992 fourth edition, this thoroughly updated fifth edition maintains its role as a clear introduction to the field of colloid and surface chemistry, intermediate between the brief accounts in physical chemistry textbooks and more in-depth coverage in specialized treatises. It retains the core spirit of Shaw’s previous editions but with a completely fresh, multi-author team bringing a new perspective. New information is included on the composition and structure of solid and liquid interfaces, scattering methods, and colloid stability control. The book provides a sound and easy to follow theoretical framework. It outlines relevant research techniques and considers technological applications that also include the life sciences. A basic knowledge of the principles of physical chemistry is assumed. Introduction to Colloid and Surface Chemistry appeals to a broad audience, including undergraduate and postgraduate students in chemistry, physics, chemical engineering, materials science, nanoscience, and biology. It serves as ideal course literature for late undergraduate and graduate courses requiring foundational knowledge in colloid and surface chemistry. New to This Edition: Completely updated and revised chapter order to better reflect modern colloidal systems Includes a new chapter on applications that includes life science and more emphasis on polymers Follows an enhanced pedagogic approach with modernized layout and features more exercises with solutions Updated chapters on emulsions, scattering methods, new ways to stabilize colloids, worked problems/examples and discussion of surface forces
