Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the engrossing world of colloids, a state of matter where substances exist suspended in a liquid. It begins by tracing the historical journey of this field, from Thomas Graham's pioneering work to the cutting-edge ultra-microscope. The author unveils the curious properties of colloids, from their size discrepancies to their viscosity variations, leading readers through the mechanisms that govern their stability. Through the lens of physicist Wolfgang Ostwald's foundational classification, we explore the two main types of colloids: suspensoids and emulsoids. The book provides a roadmap into the behavior of these particles in the presence of electrolytes, bringing forth the fascinating concepts of charge and coagulation. Ultimately, this book illuminates how the study of colloids extends beyond theory, finding practical applications in industries ranging from medicine to photography.
