Surfactants and Interfacial Phenomena
Surfactants and Interfacial Phenomena by Milton J. Rosen, published by John Wiley & Sons on March 6, 2012, is now in its fourth edition and spans 616 pages. This edition provides a comprehensive explanation of how surfactants function in various interfacial processes, including foaming, wetting, emulsion formation, and detergency. It also explores the relationship between a surfactant’s chemical structure and its operational mechanisms, making it a valuable resource for both industrial chemists and students.
Readers will find updated content, including three new chapters focusing on surfactants in biology and biotechnology, nanotechnology, and molecular modeling with surfactant systems. The book is designed to be user-friendly, featuring problems at the end of each chapter to reinforce understanding, along with numerous data tables that are unique to this text. With its accessible approach and minimal use of mathematics, this edition serves as an effective tool for grasping the latest developments in surfactant science.
Official synopsis Publisher
Now in its fourth edition, Surfactants and Interfacial Phenomena 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.
