Beginning with Nobel laureate I. Prigogine's lecture
"Entropy Revisited", this book gives a well-balanced survey
on capillarity properties at liquid and solid interfaces. It
approaches the subject from both the microscopic
(statistical mechanics) and the macroscopic (mechanics and
thermodynamics) points of view. Experimental aspects and
technological applications are also presented. The book
addresses researchers and graduate students of physics and
physical chemistry.
Starting with a lecture by Nobel laureate I. Prigogine this book gives a survey of macroscopic and microscopic aspects of capillarity. Experiments, theory, and technological applications are treated.
