This outstanding resource presents the latest knowledge on a wide range of topics in polymer science, including the dynamics, preparation, application, and physicochemical properties of polymer solutions and colloids; the adsorption characteristics at polymer surfaces; and the adhesion properties (including acid-base) of polymer surfaces. Written by over 25 experts from Asia, Europe, and North and South America, Polymer Interfaces and Emulsions discusses structural ordering in polymer solutions and the influence of surface structure on polymer surfaces examines the physicochemical behavior of polymer colloids at surfaces and interfaces demonstrates the importance of intermolecular interactions in the adhesion of polymer surfaces analyzes the mechanism of adsorption at polymer surfaces and polymer-bridging of colloids reviews the preparation and application of polymer colloids and more!

Complete with over 1000 references, tables, equations, drawings, photographs, and micrographs, Polymer Interfaces and Emulsions is essential reading for polymer, physical, surface, colloid, and pharmaceutical chemists; plastics, polymer, process, and chemical engineers; materials scientists; physicists; and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines.
