Clay Swelling and Colloid Stability (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Clay Swelling and Colloid Stability offers a clear view of a revolutionary process that has been taking place in clay and colloid science over the past twenty years. Explaining and documenting the Coulombic Attraction Theory (Sogami Theory), the book makes a compelling case for two major paradigm shifts in colloid science. With no prior knowledge of clay chemistry of mineral structure necessary, it presents the whole picture of the colloid revolution, taking readers from a general understanding of physical chemistry and colloid science to a deeper understanding of the physicochemical principles underlying colloid behavior. The book is of interest to materials, chemical, geotechnical, and soil scientists and engineers.

Autorenporträt

Martin Smalley worked as a professional research scientist from 1980 to 2000, with the exception of two years when he trained and worked as a physics teacher. In the late 1980s, after spells in theoretical physics at the Universities of Erlangen- Nürnberg and Oxford, he started investigating clays at the Physical Chemistry Laboratory, Oxford University, and the Department of Polymer Chemistry, Kyoto University. He became interested in polymers on an ERATO (Exploratory Research for Advanced Technology) project in Japan in the mid-1990s, and pursued his studies of colloids and polymers as a lecturer in the Department of Physics and Astronomy, University College London. This book summarizes the 36 papers (21 experimental, 15 theoretical) he has written on clays and colloids.
