Bridging academic research and industrial applications, this is the first modern approach to relate fundamental research to the applied science of colloids. Edited by the 'l'eminence grise' on this topic and written by the top scientists in the field, this text examines the role of colloid and interface science in pharmacy, as well as pharmaceutical formulations and drug delivery. It then goes on to treat pharmaceutical suspensions and emulsions, including multiple emulsions, as well as liposomes and the role of nanotechnology in drug delivery. A final section is devoted to the hot topic of stem cell research.
For surface and pharmaceutical chemists, physicochemists, chemical engineers and those working in the pharmaceutical industry.

Highlighting recent developments as well as future challenges, this series of volumes covers such topics as emulsions, nano-emulsions, nano-dispersions and novel techniques for their investigation. It also considers the fundamental approach in areas such as controlled release, drug delivery and various applications of nanotechnology.

The first modern approach to relate fundamental research to the applied science of colloids, this series bridges academic research and practical applications, thus providing the information vital to both. Written by the very top scientists in their respective disciplines, this volume discusses the nature of various forces, as well as the influence of surface forces on the stability of dispersions, their measurement and role in adsorbed polymers and liquid films.
For surface, polymer and physicochemists, materials scientists, and chemical engineers.

The first modern approach to relate fundamental research to the applied science of colloids, these six volumes contain contributions from THE top scientists in their respective fields.

The first two volumes cover the role of surface forces, while the third looks at colloid stability and its application in pharmacy. Volume?Four deals with applications in personal care and cosmetics, while the last two volumes cover colloids in agrochemicals and in paints and coatings.

An invaluable reference for surface, physical and polymer chemists, materials scientists, and chemical engineers.
