책소개
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.

Rosen (emeritus, chemistry, City U. of New York-Brooklyn College) and chemistry educator and consultant Kunjappu wrote the first edition during the 1970s to bridge the gap between fundamental knowledge and commercial applications in the science that had only recently separated from colloid science. New here are chapters on surfactants in biology, nanotechnology, and molecular modeling; most of the other chapters have also been revised to keep up with the field. The topics include characteristic features of surfactants, wetting and its modification by surfactants, emulsification by surfactants, and molecular interactions and synergism in mixtures of two surfactants.
