Focusing on the solution physical chemistry and surface properties of cationic surfactants, three major sections examine the properties of cationic surfactants themselves both in solution and at interfaces, the interactions of cationic surfactants with other materials, and applications of cationic s
The Ion Exchange and Solvent Extraction series treats ion exchange and solvent extraction both as discrete topics and as a unified, multidisciplinary study - presenting new insights for researchers in many chemical and related fields.;Volume 12 contains coverage of: the nature of metal-ion interaction with oppositely charged sites of ion exchangers; high-pressure ion exchange separation of rare earth elements; the commercial recovery of valuable minerals from seawater and brines by ion exchange and sorption; the kinetics of ion exchange in heterogenous systems; the ion-exchange equilibria of amino acids; and more.;The work is intended for analytical, co-ordination, process, separation, surface, organic, inorganic, physical and environmental chemists, geochemists, electrochemists, radiochemists, biochemists, biophysicists, hydrometallurgists, membrane researchers and chemical engineers.
As a spectroscopic method, Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) has seen spectacular growth over the past two decades, both as a technique and in its applications. Today the applications of NMR span a wide range of scientific disciplines, from physics to biology to medicine. Each volume of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance comprises a combination of annual and biennial reports which together provide comprehensive of the literature on this topic. This Specialist Periodical Report reflects the growing volume of published work involving NMR techniques and applications, in particular NMR of natural macromolecules which is covered in two reports: "NMR of Proteins and Acids" and "NMR of Carbohydrates, Lipids...

Featuring contributions from more than 1,800 scientists from all over the world, the book discusses a vast array of subjects related to the: synthesis, properties, and applications of polymeric materials development of modern catalysts in preparing new or modified polymers modification of existing polymers by chemical and physical processes biologically oriented polymers This comprehensive, easy-to-use resource on modern polymeric materials serves as an invaluable addition to reference collections in the polymer field.
This volume chronicles the proceedings of the 8th International Symposium on Surfactants in Solution (SIS) held in Gainesville, FL, June 10-15, 1990. This series of symposia have been smoothly running since 1976, but the appellation "Surfactants in Solution" was used for the first time in 1982 in Lund. Since then our logo "SIS" has become very familiar to everyone involved in surfactants. In Lund the meeting was billed as the Fourth International Symposium on Surfactants in Solution. Earlier three events were held under different rubrics, but proceedings of all these symposia, except the 7th SIS held in Ottawa in 1988, have been properly documented. As a matter of fact so far 10 volumes have...
This authoritative review brings scientists up-to-date with the exciting recent developments in modern electric field applications and highlights their benefits compared with other methods. In Part 1 the book opens with a complete account of electrochromatography - a state-of-the-art technique that combines chromatography and electrophoresis. It reveals how you can achieve first-class separations in numerous analytical and biochemical applications. Part 2 focuses on the unique characteristics of electroprocesses in industry, and several examples, such as electroosmotic dewatering, new electro-rheological fluid technologies and demulsification processes in the car and oil industries, are given. The role of the electric field in chemical processes is discussed in Part 3. The chapters explore its use in concentration processes, immunoassay and molecular orientation methods, and important examples are presented in each case. This book is essential reading for analytical chemists, applied chemists and chemical engineers working in research and development wishing to keep up with this dynamic field.

Incorporates contributions from newcomers and established and experienced researchers Explores the planar lipid bilayer systems and spherical liposomes from both theoretical and experimental perspectives Serves as an indispensable source of information for new scientists
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.
This volume is dedicated to Doctor Shuji Saito to commemorate the 50th anniversary of his first paper on polymer-surfactant interaction published in the former Kolloid Zeitschrift, now called Colloid and Polymer Science. It is a collection of papers written by experts who contributed to the progress in this field. The papers introduce typical problems associated with systems of nonionic polymers and ionic surfactants, polymers and surfactants of opposite charge, charged polymers and nonionic surfactants, and of surfactant-responsive polymer gels. Papers on mixtures of natural polymers and surfactants, drugs, dyes and other cosolutes are also included. The book is an indispensable tool for physical, surface, polymer and colloid chemists; material scientists; chemical physicists; biochemists and biophysicists; and advanced undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines.
