This is the first book on interfacial rheology. It aims to describe
both its history as well as the current, most frequently used
experimental techniques for studying dilational and shear rheology
of layers at liquid/gas and liquid/liquid interfaces. The book
opens with a chapter on the fundamentals of interfacial rheology.
All (16) contributions include the theoretical basis for the
presented methodologies, and experimental examples are given.
This book describes in detail the scientific philosophy of the
formation and stabilization-destabilization of foams. It presents
all hierarchical steps of a foam, starting from the properties of
adsorption layers formed by foaming agents, discussing the
properties of foam films as the building blocks of a foam, and then
describing details of real foams, including many fields of
application. The information presented in the book is useful to
people working on the formulation of foams or attempting to avoid
or destruct foams in unwanted situations.
This book describes the most important experimental methods for
characterizing liquid interfaces, such as drop profile analysis,
bubble pressure and drop volume tensiometry, capillary pressure
technique, and oscillating drops and bubbles. It presents practical
experimental details as well as the underlying theoretical bases.
In addition, the book covers a number of applications based on
drops and bubbles, such as rising bubbles and the complex process
of flotation. It also offers a discussion on wetting, characterized
by the dynamics of advancing contact angles.
The third volume in a series dedicated to colloids and interfaces,
Drops and Bubbles in Contact with Solid Surfaces presents an
up-to-date overview of the fundamentals and applications of drops
and bubbles and their interaction with solid surfaces. The chapters
cover the theoretical and experimental aspects of wetting and
wettability, liquid-solid interfacial properties, and spreading
dynamics on different surfaces, including a special section on
polymers. The book examines issues related to interpretation of
contact angle from nano to macro systems. Expert contributors
discuss interesting peculiarities, such as the phenomena of
super-spreading and super-hydrophobicity. They discuss specific
solid surfaces-for example, reactions and wetting of liquid metals
at high temperatures-and the interaction between nano-bubbles at
solid surface and nano-particles at liquid interfaces. The book
also includes a chapter on electro-wetting. Given the range of
topics covered in this volume, the state-of-art content is useful
to readers looking for an introductory overview as well as those
looking for in-depth exploration of material related to the
interaction of fluids with solid surfaces. It is a valuable
contribution to the field of characterization of solid surfaces and
can be used as a working tool or to stimulate further study for
researchers and students.
The book aims at describing the most important experimental methods
for characterizing liquid interfaces, such as drop profile
analysis, bubble pressure and drop volume tensiometry, capillary
pressure technique, and oscillating drops and bubbles. Besides the
details of experimental set ups, also the underlying theoretical
basis is presented in detail. In addition, a number of applications
based on drops and bubbles is discussed, such as rising bubbles and
the very complex process of flotation. Also wetting, characterized
by the dynamics of advancing contact angles is discussed
critically. Special application like a double capillary arrangement
for single drop manipulations, and the so-called fibre drop
analyzer are presented as excellent examples for the use of drops
in interfacial science.
