Trends in Colloid and Interface Science XII [Paperback]

The 11th Conference of the European Colloid and Interface Society (ECIS) was held in September 1997 in Lunteren, The Netherlands. The scientific program covered theoretical, experimental, and technical aspects of modern colloid and interface science. This volume contains a selection of contributions in the following fields: New topics in colloid science Polymer colloids Rheology Surfactant colloids Polymers and surfactants at interfacesThe 11th Conference of the European Colloid and Interface Society (ECIS) was held in September 1997 in Lunteren, The Netherlands.
