Dynamics and Structure of the Liquid-Liquid Interface: Faraday Discussions No 129 Paperback - 2005

This volume addresses the distinct approaches that have been taken to study liquid-liquid interfaces. The underlying theme is the convergence of the diverse experimental and computational approaches that have been pursued to understand structure, dynamics and transport phenomena associated with liquid-liquid interfaces. Work is presented in the following areas: theory and simulation of liquid-liquid interfaces; spectroscopic and structural studies of the liquid-liquid interface; kinetic and thermodynamics of transfer across interfacial boundaries; charge transfer processes; bio-mimetic systems; fundamental aspects and applications of emulsions; and applications of liquid-liquid processes including metal deposition, solvent extraction, drug delivery and two-phase synthesis. Faraday Discussions document a long-established series of Faraday Discussion meetings which provide a unique international forum for the exchange of views and newly acquired results in developing areas of physical chemistry, biophysical chemistry and chemical physics. The papers presented are published in the Faraday Discussion volume together with a record of the discussion contributions made at the meeting. Faraday Discussions therefore provide an important record of current international knowledge and views in the field concerned.
