Introduction to dynamics of colloids, Vol. 2

By: Contributor(s): Series: Studies in Interface SciencePublication details: Amsterdam: Elsevier, 2003.Description: xvii, 642p.: ill.; hbk.: 24cmISBN:
  • 9780444820099
Subject(s): DDC classification:
  • 530.42 DHO
Summary: One of the few textbooks in the field, this volume deals with several aspects of the dynamics of colloids. A self-contained treatise, it fills the gap between research literature and existing books for graduate students and researchers. For readers with a background in chemistry, the first chapter contains a section on frequently used mathematical techniques, as well as statistical mechanics. Some of the topics covered include: • diffusion of free particles on the basis of the Langevin equation •the separation of time, length and angular scales; • the fundamental Fokker-Planck and Smoluchowski equations derived for interacting particles • friction of spheres and rods, and hydrodynamic interaction of spheres (including three body interactions) • diffusion, sedimentation, critical phenomena and phase separation kinetics • experimental light scattering results. For universities and research departments in industry, this textbook makes vital reading. https://shop.elsevier.com/books/an-introduction-to-dynamics-of-colloids/dhont/978-0-444-82009-9
