Powder Technology Series EDITED BY BRIAN SCARLETI

Delft University of Technology The Netherlands

Many materials exist in the form of a disperse system, for example powders, pastes, slurries, emulsions and aerosols. The study of such systems necessarily arises in many technologies but may alternatively be regarded as a separate subject which is concerned with the manufacture, characterization and manipulation of such systems. Chapman and Hall were one of the first publishers to recognize the basic importance of the subject, going on to instigate this series of books. The series does not aspire to define and confine the subject without duplication, but rather to provide a good home for any book which has a contribution to make to the record of both the theory and the application of the subject. We hope that all engineers and scientists who concern themselves with disperse systems will use these books and that those who become expert will contribute further to the series.
