The ability of surfactants to form micelles and solubilise hydrophobic substances in aqueous environments has been widely exploited in formulation science. In spite of extensive studies over the past few decades by both experimental and theoretical methods, however, it remains d…

The subject of this volume is limited in that it addresses amphiphiles at liquid/air, liquid/liquid, and liquid/solid interfaces, with litte attention paid to vapor/solid interfaces. This volume will serve to summarize our current understanding of interfacial structure at the mo…
Addresses amphiphiles at liquid/air, liquid/liquid, and liquid/solid interfaces, colloidal systems such as micellar solutions, microemulsions, emulsions, dispersions, slurries, etc., as well as flows at and wetting of macroscopic interfaces. Aids understanding of interfacial str…
Stimuli-responsive polymers and their use in biomedical applications have been widely investigated in recent years. These polymers change their physical properties such as water-solubility, when subjected to certain stimuli, for example change in temperature or pH. The main purp…
