They have recently been attracting increased attention from scientists and engineers due to the fact that they are nowadays present in many industrial products such as paints, oil additives, electronic ink displays and drugs. Colloids also serve as versatile model systems for phenomena and structures from solid-state physics, surface science and statistical mechanics, and can easily be studied using tabletop experiments to provide insight into processes not readily accessible in atomic systems.This book prese 410 0$aInternational School of Physics ?Enrico Fermi? 606 $aColloids 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aColloids. 676 $a541.345 701 $aBechinger$b C$0880364 701 $aSciortino$b F$0880365 701 $aZiherl$b P$0880366 712 12$aInternational School of Physics "Enrico Fermi" 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910453119103321 996 $aPhysics of complex colloids$91965773 997 $aUNINA
