Colloids in Paints

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 best scientists in their respective disciplines, this volume describes the role of colloids in paints, highlighting the importance of fundamental research in industrial applications. For surface, polymer and physicochemists, materials scientists, and chemical engineers.

Endlich ein modernes Werk, das die Grundlagenforschung auf dem Gebiet der Kolloide wechselseitig mit Anwendungen und industriellen Einsatzgebieten verknüpft! Tadros, ein unangefochtener Experte seines Fachs, konnte für die einzelnen Beiträge der Bände dieser Reihe ausgezeichnete Spezialisten gewinnen und garantiert für höchste Qualität.
