This book consists of a number of papers regarding the thermodynamics and structure of multicomponent systems that we have published during the last decade. Even though they involve different topics and different systems, they have something in common which can be considered as the signature of the present book. First, these papers are concerned with difficult or very nonideal systems, i. e. systems with very strong interactions (e. g., hyd- gen bonding) between components or systems with large differences in the partial molar v- umes of the components (e. g., the aqueous solutions of...

Nanomaterial science has received increasing attention over the last twenty years. As more and more applications are discovered in medical sciences, physics, chemistry, polymer science, material science and engineering, there is a growing need for a basic understanding of nanoparticle interactions and their role in the thermodynamic and kinetic stability of nanodispersions.
"Nanodispersions: Interactions, Stability and Dynamics" collects research in nanodispersion interactions and stability by the distinguished Eli Ruckenstein and his research group at SUNY-Buffalo. This book...

Explore a Kinetic Approach to the Description of Nucleation An Alternative to the Classical Nucleation Theory
Kinetic Theory of Nucleation presents an alternative to the classical theory of nucleation in gases and liquids the kinetic nucleation theory of Ruckenstein Narsimhan Nowakowski (RNNT). RNNT uses the kinetic theory of fluids to calculate the rate of evaporation of molecules from clusters, and unlike the classical nucleation theory (CNT), does not require macroscopic thermodynamics or the detailed balance principle. The book compares...
