This book makes colloid sciences stimulating by connecting theories to scientific knowledge from our ancestors. It covers theoretical approaches and applications spanning from polymer sciences and nanotechnologies to bio-medicine and food sciences, which all rely on this field.
When facing scientific arguments exotic to their habits, people feel unease until the stimulating possibilities offered by the arguments in question become evident to their insatiable minds. When they realize that the still unknown items have a lot to offer them, they feel stimulated. This fact is particularly true when scientific concepts are decorated by historical or artistic information. This fact becomes evident when students approach physics, quantum mechanics and colloid sciences.
This book is organized in such a way to ensure that theories are well formulated and that their origins are based on former scientific knowledge from our ancestors. This is because some aspects of colloid
sciences have been known by humans since early times. In the text, pertinent aspects are dealt with, together with theoretical approaches and possible applications. The latter span from polymer sciences to nanotechnologies and bio-medicine and, finally, to food sciences. All such fields rely on colloid sciences and on the scientific instruments finding use in that field. That is the reason why many aspects of colloid sciences need to have at their disposal the fundamentals of electrochemistry, surface chemistry, rheology and optics.
Most chemists have little understanding of crystallography. This book provides a basic, non-mathematical education on crystallographic methods, written in language chemists use. It is designed for students and any chemist who has had no instruction in the subject.
When the spherical molecule C60 was discovered in 1985, a science journalist did more than just report the news. He linked the glamorous discovery to the world of soot science, contriving a spectacular argument between scientists to promote the discoverers’ claim to fame.
This entry-level textbook prepares college students for advanced science courses by bridging the gap from high school chemistry. It emphasizes the history of the discipline to create a storyline, showing how modern chemical vocabulary makes sense only in the light of history.
This multidisciplinary volume presents new research in archaeological chemistry, applying chemical techniques to study the material remains of past cultures. It shows how the field combines analytical chemistry, history, and materials science to better understand our past.
This book describes fundamental mechanisms and catalytic pathways of key enzymes like cytochromes P450 and kinases. Learn to solve kinetic and mechanistic problems and confidently present your results in high-impact journals, even without significant previous experience.
This textbook presents the foundations of electrochemistry, necessary to understand chemical power sources like batteries, hydrogen production, and corrosion protection. It is a systematic presentation from theory to practice, outlining concepts, formulas, and research methods.
Organic synthesis rarely goes to plan. To fight meagre yields and side reactions, you need to master reaction mechanisms. This book moves you from knowing the simple steps of an undergraduate degree to envisioning the convoluted mechanisms needed in professional practice.
Heterogeneous catalysis is founded on solid state chemistry, but the relationship is often elusive. This book provides insights into solid state chemistry to widen the vision of catalysis, covering structure, bonding, and defects and their implications.
This book sums up over half a century of research in derivative spectroscopy. For the first time, it offers the big picture of all spectroscopic and non-spectroscopic derivative methods, with reproducible calculations, serving as a practical guide for researchers and students.
This is the first book to form the big picture of all data analytics methods in spectroscopy. Its rigorous mathematical basis, in-depth descriptions, numerous examples, and reproducible calculations make it a valuable guide for practitioners, students, and lecturers.
