The Preparation of Dispersions in Liquids (Surfactant Science)

This work details the preparation of dispersions in liquids. It sets out to bridge the gap in information for the chemist who is not applications oriented and the chemical engineer who needs to solve problems in the field based on theoretical methods of dispersions of solids, liquids and gases. Insights are provided into many topics, including the transportation and handling of finely divided soils or highly viscous liquids; the reactions between reactants dissolved in immiscible phases; the formation of porous materials; and filtration. "Providing a brief summary of colloid chemistry, this reference details the preparation of dispersions in liquids - bridging the gap in information between the chemist who is not applications oriented and the chemical engineer who needs to solve problems in the field based on theoretical models of dispersions of solids, liquids, and gases." "Furnishing more than 770 literature citations, tables, equations, drawings, and photographs, The Preparation of Dispersions in Liquids is an essential resource for physical, surface, and colloid chemists; chemical, biochemical, and mining engineers; pharmacists; and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in theses disciplines."--Jacket.
