"Ordinary foams such as the head of a glass of beer, and more exotic ones such as solid metallic foams, raise many questions for the physicist. A substantial research community has grown up in recent years to study these substances. This book describes the results of extensive e…
"A variety of foaming techniques and equipment are available to produce very diverse range of products. Several monographic sources are available to learn about these methods of production but very little is known and discussed about the composition of materials to be processed …
This book provides an integrated introduction to the nature, formation and occurrence, stability, propagation, and uses of the most common types of colloidal dispersion in the process-related industries. The primary focus is on the applications of the principles, paying attentio…
In this work, beginners, engineers, and researchers entering the field can easily find clear, up-to-date answers to their questions regarding the physical and physico-chemical properties of aqueous foams, as well as their numerous industrial applications, explained using current…
Foams are ubiquitous in our daily lives. Their presence is highly desirable in certain foods, drinks and cosmetics, and they are essential in oil recovery and mineral extraction. In some industrial processes (such as the manufacture of glass, paper and wine) foams are an unwelco…
