Nano-Surface Chemistry

Containing more than 2600 references and over 550 equations, drawings, tables, photographs, and micrographs, This book describes hierarchical assemblies in biology and biological processes that occur at the nanoscale across membranes and at interfaces. It covers recurrent themes in nanocolloid science, including self-assembly, construction of supramolecular architecture, nanoconfinement and compartmentalization, measurement and control of interfacial forces, novel synthetic materials, and computer simulation. The authors reviews surface forces apparatus measurements of two-dimensional organized ensembles at solid-liquid interfaces.

Self-assembly, the construction of supramolecular architecture, nanoconfinement and compartmentalization, measuring and controlling interfacial forces, novel synthetic materials, and computer simulation are among the areas of nano-colloid science reviewed by scientists from Europe, the US, Israel, and Japan. They also demonstrate the intersection and interaction of physics, chemistry, biology, and materials science; survey industrial and technological applications; and explore how new experimental techniques and findings are generating developments in fundamental science. c.
