Linking the effect of macromolecules at the interface with the applications, this book clearly portrays how and why macromolecules and colloids adsorb at the interface. It includes details on the basic mechanisms and forces involved, what systems of macromolecules there are at the interface, how polymer conformations vary with changes in their environment and how control of macromolecules at the interface is used in traditional and emerging fields.


Written for advanced level students and researchers in academia and industry, this book provides the latest information on the concepts, theories and applications of the topic. Each chapter will follow a descriptive template with a roadmap clearly setting the scene with the mathematics kept to a minimum and presented with reasoned arguments. Applications are linked to fundamental understanding and examples are provided which make this book a coherent and up to date addition to the literature in this area.
