Interfacial Physical Chemistry of High-Temperature Melts

<p>This English translation of a well-known Japanese book covers interfacial physicochemistry in materials science especially for iron- and steelmaking processes. <b><i>Interfacial Physical Chemistry of High-Temperature Melts </i></b>bridges the gap between the basics and applications of physicochemistry. </p><p>The book begins with an overview of the fundamentals of interfacial physical chemistry and discusses surface tension describing the derivation of important equations to guide readers to a deep understanding of the phenomenon. The book then goes on to introduce interfacial properties of high-temperature melts especially the Marangoni effect and discusses applications to materials processing at high temperature focusing on recent research results by the author and the co-workers.</p><p>This book is aimed at researchers graduate students and professionals in materials processing. </p><p>Video clips of in-situ observation including experiments under microgravity condition and x-ray observation are available for download on the publisher's website to allow for a deeper understanding.</p>
