Description
This 2-day intensive course is designed to bring you up-to date on the classification of surfactants, the physical chemistry of their solutions and the principles of colloid stability. Both electrostatic stabilization produced as a result of formation of electrical double layers as well as that produced by adsorbed non-ionic surfactants and polymers are described. Applications of these principles in emulsion formation and stability as well as the use of surfactants as dispersant are discussed at a fundamental level. A special topic on the formation of microemulsions, their thermodynamic stability as well as their characterization is described in a separate lecture. The course provides the fundamental principles as well as their applications in various formulations such as paints, pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, cosmetics and paper coatings. You are encouraged to bring your problems and needs for public or private discussion with the course director.
