Sommario/riassunto

This fundamental book on interfacial phenomena forms the basis of application of interface and colloid science to various disperse systems.  These include suspensions, emulsions, nano-dispersions, wetting, spreading, deposition and adhesion of particles to surfaces.  These



systems occur in most industrial applications, such as personal care and cosmetic formulations, pharmaceutical systems particularly for controlled and targeted delivery of drugs, agrochemical formulations and enhancement of their biological performance, paints and coatings as well as most food formulations. These applications are described in volume 2.  The text is very valuable for formulation chemists, chemical engineers and technologies who are involved in such applications.  In addition this fundamental text is also valuable for research scientists and Ph.D. students investigating various aspects of interface and colloid science.

Sommario/riassunto

How do you approach answering queries when your data is stored in multiple databases that were designed independently by different people? This is first comprehensive book on data integration and is written by three of the most respected experts in the field.    This book



provides an extensive introduction to the theory and concepts underlying today's data integration techniques, with detailed, instruction for their application using concrete examples throughout to explain the concepts. Data integration is the problem of answering queries that span multiple data sources (e.g., database
