Product Description
Focusing on qualitative science and experimental techniques, this book provides a comprehensive, practical introduction to the field of soft matter, which merges tools from physics, materials science, chemistry, biology, and computer science. The text first presents an overview of the field and a summary of physical principles of self-assembly in soft materials. It then covers liquid crystals, colloids, polymers, gels, and soft biomaterials, including what defines this class of materials, key properties, and common characterization methods. The author emphasizes imaging techniques and other methods used to characterize soft materials in the lab.
