Foundations of Colloid Science, Volume 1Liquid suspension systems are the basic ingredients of paints, detergents, biological cells, and countless other systems of scientific and technological importance. This book presents the fundamental physical and chemical concepts necessary to the understanding of these systems and of colloid science in general. New ideas are introduced carefully and formulae are developed in full, with exercises to help the reader throughout. The frequent references to the many applications of colloid science will be especially helpful to beginning research scientists and people in industry, medicine and agriculture who often find their training in this area inadequate. Integrating developments from the time of colloid science's infancy 40 years ago to its present state as a rigorous discipline, this intelligently assembled work elucidates a remarkable range of concepts, techniques, and behaviors. |

/"°b\1/2' Since the dominant frequency is usually that of an outer orbital electronic
transition, a better approximation results by taking NA to be the number of
electrons in the outer orbital only. Since NA enters to the half power in eqn (4.3.

4.6 The Deryaguin approximation When dealing with interactions between
macrobodies, it is often the case that the range of the interaction is such that the
two bodies do not interact significantly until the distance of closest approach is
small ...

If E(D) is the energy per unit area of half-space 1 interacting with the half-space 2,
then, in this approximation, dV = E(D)dS1 (4.6.1) is the interaction energy of the
area element dSj of body 1 with body 2. The distance D increases as the area ...
