COLLOID AND INTERFACE SCIENCE PALLAB GHOSH Associate Professor Department of Chemical Engineering Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati New Delhi-110001 2009 About the cover illustration: The background depicts the waves created at the air–water interface induced by external forces (e.g. when a rain drop falls on a calm water surface); (top left) petroleum oil-spill on sea that can cause extensive environmental hazard; (middle) gas bubbles fascinate us with their shape and colour, and they also constitute an integral part of gas–liquid dispersions; (bottom right) water-drops on hydrophobic tree-leaves depicting the wetting phenomena; (top right) carbon-nanotube catalytic reactor depicting the production of ethanol [taken from the work of Pan, X., Fan, Z., Chen, W., Ding, Y., Luo, H. and Bao, X., “Enhanced Ethanol Production Inside Carbon-Nanotube Reactors Containing Catalytic Particles”, Nature Materials, 6, 507 (2007), reproduced by permission from Macmillan Publishers Ltd., © 2007] Rs. 425.00 COLLOID AND INTERFACE SCIENCE Pallab Ghosh © 2009 by PHI Learning Private Limited, New Delhi.
