Sets out the fundamental physical chemical concepts behind interface and colloid science. Starting from elementary principles, including those of classical thermodynamics and intermolecular interaction, this book gradually progresses to advanced topics such as partition functions and stochastic processes.

Interface and colloid science is an important branch of science. It has applications and ramifications in domains as disparate as agriculture, mineral dressing, and more. This book covers this field and also recognizes common principles behind a variety of phenomena, and helps the reader to understand them and to develop and improve processes.
