9780824719784: Modern Characterization Methods of Surfactant Systems: 83

Sinossi

Describes recent techniques applied to characterize surfactant systems, such as surfactant-stabilized colloids, micelles, microemulsions, emulsions and foams in both aqueous and nonaqueous fluids. The text probes adsorption and wetting phenomena at interfaces, including solid-liquid, liquid-vapour and liquid-liquid. It provides helpful examples and case studies illustrating how these techniques may be used in complementary ways.

Contenuti

Modern techniques employed for characterizing surfactant systems. Techniques involving microscopy: scanning tunneling microscopy at solid-liquid interfaces; atomic force microscopy; Brewster angle microscopy and ellipsometry; cryogenic temperature transmission electron microscopy in the study of surfactant systems. Optical techniques: optical techniques for the characterization of monolayers and thin liquid films; fluorescence and ESR spectroscopy; studies of interactions between interfaces across surfactant solutions employing various surface force techniques; non-linear optical techniques. Non-optical techniques: amphiphiles at interfaces studied by surface sensitive X-ray scattering; neutron reflectivity at liquid-vapour, liquid-liquid, and solid-liquid interfaces; quartz crystal microbalance; electroacoustic studies of surfactant adsorption; ultrasonic characterization of surfactant-containing systems.
