UK Colloids 2011 - the first multi-day conference on the topic of
colloid science held in the UK for many years, jointly organized by
the RSC Colloid and Interface Science Group and the SCI Colloid and
Surface Science Group. The conference had over 250 delegates, from
all across the world - good representation from Japan, China,
Australia, USA, France, Germany, Holland, Sweden, Spain, Poland,
Georgia - as well as a substantial number of UK based researchers.
This Special Issue of "Progress in Colloid and Polymer Science"
collects together a selection of 20 papers, mostly presented during
the Conference. The papers included cover the wide variety of
topics from fundamentals in colloid and interface science to
industrial applications. The current Special Issue also reflects
the international character of the Conference.
This volume includes 35 contributions to the 24th Conference of the
European Colloid and Interface Society which took place in
September 2010 in Prague. The contributions from leading scientists
cover a broad spectrum of the following topics: * Self-assembling,
Stimuli-responsive and Hierarchically Organized Systems * Colloid,
Polymer and Polyelectrolyte Solutions; Concentrated Systems and
Gels * Thin Films, Interfaces and Surfaces; Wetting Phenomena *
Novel Nano-to-Mesostructured Functional Materials * Biologically
Important and Bioinspired Systems; Pharmaceutical and Medical
Applications
Colloidal systems and dispersions are of great importance in oil
recovery, waist water treatment, coating, food and beverage
industry, pharmaceutical industry, medicine, environmental
protection etc. Colloidal systems and dispersions are always
multi-component and multiphase systems. In these systems at least
one dimension is in a range of colloidal forces action: colloidal
dispersions/emulsions are examples of three dimensional colloidal
systems, while thin liquid films are examples of one dimensional
colloidal systems. The contribution presented in this issue deals
with flow, distribution and redistribution, coating and deposition
of surfactant and polymer molecules in colloidal systems. The book
presents reviews of recent advances and trends by well-know
scientists and engineers in this area.
