This book is the premier text on the properties and applications of
surfactants. The third edition is completely updated and revised,
including new information on gemini surfactants (a new type of
powerful surfactant), superspreading (or superwetting) by aqueous
surfactant solutions of highly hydrophobic surfaces (important in
agricultural applications), and dynamic surface tension (an
important interfacial property not covered in the first two
editions).
* Clearly explains the mechanisms by which surfactants operate in
interfacial processes
* Uses a minimum of mathematics in explanation of topics, making it
easy-to-understand and very user-friendly
* Problems are included at the end of each chapter
* Includes many tables of data as reference that are not compiled
elsewhere
* Milton J Rosen is an expert in the field of Surfactant research
