In this sense, this is a unique book, as entirely different from ordinary textbooks.Since the functions and dynamic behaviours of particles strongly depend on their size, well-defined monodispersed particles are ideal particulate materials for advanced devices as well as models for fundamental studies of colloid science. This may be the sheer reason for the persistent demands for the advent of a comprehensive book focussed on this subject.
For researchers of all industries dealing with particulate materials, including photographic materials, functional ceramics, magnetic materials, catalysts, pigments, fluorescent materials, cosmetics, medicines, medical devices, etc.
