Contents:

Introduction -- Van der Waals forces -- Experimental methods -- Electrostatic double-layer forces -- Capillary forces -- Hydrodynamic forces -- Interfacial forces between fluid interfaces and across thin films -- Contact mechanics and adhesion -- Friction -- Solvation forces and non-DLVO forces in water -- Surface forces in polymer solutions and melts -- Solutions to exercises.

Summary: This systematic introduction to the topic includes theoretical concepts to help readers understand and predict surface forces, while also integrating experimental techniques and practical applications with up-to-date examples plus motivating exercises. Starting with intermolecular forces, the authors discuss different surfaces forces, with a major part devoted to surface forces between solid surfaces in liquid media. In addition, they cover surface forces between liquid-vapor interfaces and between liquid-liquid interfaces.
