The emphasis is on the basic facts and phenomena, which are systematically explained.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFICS\u003c\/b\u003e aims to make interface and colloid science accessible to a wide audience. Interface and colloid science is an important and fascinating field, but one that is often overlooked and undervalued. It has applications as diverse as agriculture, mineral dressing, oil recovery, industrial chemistry, medical science and biotechnology.\u003cbr\u003eA deductive approach is followed, with systems of growing complexity being treated as the book progresses. Volume I: Fundamentals (1st ed. 1991, 2nd ed. 1993) reviews the physical chemistry required to understand current literature on interfacial and colloid science. The volume starts from first principles and gradually increases the level. Volume II: Solid-Liquid Interfaces (1995) treats the subject systematically for the first time, including adsorption, double layers and electronkinetics. \u003cb\u003eVolume III: Interface Tension\u003c\/b\u003e covers interfacial tensions, monolayers and wetting.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccessible to a wide audience without a detailed knowledge of physics and chemistry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplex mathematical derivations are kept to a minimum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTreats interfacial and colloidal phenomena from first principles (advanced command of physics and chemistry not required)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTakes the reader from elementary to expert level\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eActs as a reference and a textbook\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContains extensive and detailed cumulative subject index\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Elsevier Science","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47148564381936,"sku":"9780080507132","price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780080507132_p0.jpg?v=1763638116","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780080507132","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
