POLYMERS,LIQUIDS
AND COLLOIDS IN
ELECTRIC FIELDS
This unique book aims to expose the reader to a wide range of
phenomena occurring when soft matter systems are put under the
influence of an external electric field. The book shows how an electric
field can be used to affect objects at the submicron scale, and how it
controls the phase behavior of liquids and polymers. The main focus is
on the basic underlying mechanisms. Some technological applications
are dealt with as well.
Book chapters are arranged in a logical order, from "simple" systems to
more complicated ones. In addition, each topic is covered by the mixed
bag of theory, experiment and simulation; and this will give the reader a
