This book describes the roles of various intermolecular and interparticle forces in determining the properties of simple systems such as gases, liquids, and solids, of more complex colloidal, polymeric, and biological systems. The book provides a thorough grounding in theories and concepts of intermolecular forces, allowing students and researchers to recognize which forces are important in any particular system and
how to control these forces.Key Features* Surface-force measurements* Solvation and
structural forces* Hydration and hydophobic forces* Ion-correlation forces* Thermal fluctuation (steric and undulation) forces* Particle and surface interactions in polymer melts and polymer…
Engineering and Science are different on the point that people are trying to understand the phenomena with little knowledge of the physical background. Especially recently the interdisciplinary… The above "reviewer" needs to learn the English language! What the hell is that guy trying to tell us? I'm glad the book is useful to the
outdoors. I have not read too far into the book, but it seems…
