Foundations of colloid science, Volume 2While Volume I stands as an essentially complete advanced textbook of colloidal science, Volume II extends the material to include important new areas, and develops some of the topics in much greater depth. An introductory chapter on the theory of liquids describes the concept of correlation functions and the use of Fourier transforms to analyse the scattering of light and neutrons by colloidal systems. Absorption is given detailed coverage and a chapter on electrokinetics introduces a new approach to time-dependent processes in the double layer. The principles of double layer theory are also used to review the behavior of thin films and emulsions. A final chapter on the rheology of colloidal suspensions calls on many of the concepts developed earlier to bring some cohesion to this important and rapidly developing field. |

To proceed it is often assumed that the total potential energy of the system can be
simply written as a sum of interactions between every pair of molecules in the
system, that is It is important, however, to recognize the existence of three-, four-,

In a monatomic liquid the lifetime over which any given pair of molecules can be
regarded as nearest neighbours is of the order of a few picoseconds. (See
Section 11.5.) Some examples of g(r) are given in Figs 11.3.1-11.3.3. The result

For liquid water, the coordination number is about four and is almost independent
of temperature in the range 0-200 °C (Narton and Levy 1972). Another familiar
example of pair correlation functions is that between ions in a bulk electrolyte.
