Structure and Functional Properties of Colloidal SystemsAuthor(s): Roque Hidalgo-Alvarez\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd, United Kingdom\nImprint: CRC Press\nISBN-13: 9781138116467, 978-1138116467\nSynopsis\nIntegrating fundamental research with the technical applications of this rapidly evolving field, Structure and Functional Properties of Colloidal Systems clearly presents the connections between structure and functional aspects in colloid and interface science. It explores the physical fundamentals of colloid science, new developments of synthesis and conditioning, and many possible applications. \n\nTheory\nDivided into three parts, the book begins with a discussion of the theoretical side of colloid dynamics. It then transitions to dynamically arrested states and capillary forces in colloidal systems at fluid interfaces.\n\nStructure\nCovering the structural aspects of different colloidal systems, the second section examines electric double layers and ef.
