内容简介：
This volume provides an overview of recent research on concentrated colloidal dispersions by an interdisciplinary group of physical chemists, physicists, chemical engineers, material scientists and polymer scientists. An account is given of recent experiments, recent theories and information from computer simulation. The dispersions discussed include aqueous polymer lattices, both monodisperse and binary mixtures, emulsions, suspoemulsions, liquid crystals and powders, both at equilibrium and in flow.
