Surfactants and interfacial phenomena

Now in its fourth edition, iSurfactants and Interfacial Phenomena/i explains why and how surfactants operate in interfacial processes (such as foaming, wetting, emulsion formation and detergency), and shows the correlations between a surfactant's chemical structure and its action. Updated and revised to include more modern information, along with additional three chapters on Surfactants in Biology and Biotechnology, Nanotechnology and Surfactants, and Molecular Modeling with Surfactant Systems, this is the premier text on the properties and applications of surfactants. This book provides an easy-to-read, user-friendly resource for industrial chemists and a text for classroom use, and is an unparalleled tool for understanding and applying the latest information on surfactants. Problems are included at the end of each chapter to enhance the reader's understanding, along with many tables of data that are not compiled elsewhere. Only the minimum mathematics is used in the explanation of topics to make it easy-to-understand and very user friendly.

  • "The premier text on the properties and applications of surfactants-now fully revised and updatedThe past decade has seen significant developments in surfactant chemistry: the emergence of gemini surfactants, superwetting agents, and green surfactants. Coverage of their structure and applications makes this new Third Edition of Surfactants and Interfacial Phenomena, already the best available text on the subject, especially timely.Using a minimum of mathematics, this book clearly describes the properties and applications of surfactants. It explains the mechanisms by which these materials operate in interfacial processes such as foaming, wetting, emulsion formation, and detergency, and shows the correlations between a surfactant's chemical structure and its action.The new Third Edition features updates and revisions including: *Coverage of relevant new literature appearing after the Second Edition*An entire chapter on gemini surfactants*Guidelines for selection of surfactant pairs to optimize surfactant properties*A section on biodegradable surfactants in the context of renewable resources (green surfactants)*Estimations of marine organism toxicity and bioconcentration from the physicochemical properties of surfactants*Dynamic surface tension reduction*Synergy in wetting and superwetting by surfactant mixtures*Foaming of aqueous dispersions of finely divided solids*Demulsification by surfactants*Expanded tables of data not compiled in any other text*Additional problems at the end of each chapterWritten by Milton Rosen, a widely known expert in the field, Surfactants and Interfacial Phenomena, Third Edition provides an easy-to-read, user-friendly resource for industrial chemists and a text for classroom use, and is an unparalleled tool for understanding and applying the latest information on surfactants"
