Colloids in Paints

This first modern approach to relate fundamental research to the applied science of colloids bridges academic research and industrial applications, thus providing the information vital to both.
Written by the very top scientists in their respective disciplines, the volumes in this series are edited by an internationally recognized expert on this topic.
This final volume describes the role of colloids and interface science in paints, making it indispensable reading for those working in the dyes and pigments and paints and coatings industries, pigment, surface and physical chemists, as well as materials scientists and chemical engineers.

Nota biograficzna:
After finishing his PhD at Alexandria University, Tharwat Tadros was appointed lecturer in Physical Chemistry (1962–1966) at the same University. Between 1966 and 1969, he spent a sabbatical at the Agricultural University of Wageningen and T.N.O in Delft, the Netherlands. Thereafter he worked at I.C.I. and ZENECA until 1994, where he researched various fields of surfactants, emulsions, suspensions, microemulsions, wetting spreading and adhesion, and rheology. During that period he was also appointed visiting professor at Imperial College London, Bristol University and Reading University. In 1992, he was elected President of the International Association of Colloid and Interface Science. Since leaving ZENECA, Dr Tadros has worked as a consultant for various industries and also given several courses in his specialized field. He is the recipient of two medals from the Royal Society of Chemi stry in the UK, and has more than 250 scientific papers to his name.
