This volume presents recent advances in drug and nucleic-acid delivery, rheological control to facilitate oil thickening, stability of emulsions, formation of hydrogels, stability of latex dispersions, topical creams, food emulsifiers, chemical separations and catalysis, and responsive functional materials.

Molecular assemblies in bulk and at oil-water and air-water interfaces are key phenomena widely employed for many applications. This volume presents recent advances in this field relevant to diverse applications such as drug and nucleic-acid delivery, rheological control to facilitate oil thickening, stability of emulsions, formation of hydrogels, stability of latex dispersions, topical creams, food emulsifiers, chemical separations and catalysis, and responsive
functional materials. Readers will benefit from an overview of the research frontier, gain a fundamental understanding of self-assembly at the molecular scale, and appreciate connections to the diversity of industrial applications.

Ramanathan Nagarajan is Senior Research Scientist (Soldier nanomaterials) for the U.S. Army Futures Command-Combat Capabilities Development Command Soldier Center in Natick, MA. He is also an emeritus professor of chemical engineering at Pennsylvania State University. He serves as the Army’s senior research scientist in nanomaterials-based technologies, especially to address Soldier domain problem areas affecting individual warfighter and small units. His applied research program focuses on the development and incorporation of polymeric, biological, inorganic, and carbon nanomaterials into protective clothing and equipment for chemical, biological, flame, ballistic, and environmental protection. He has authored approximately 125 articles. Nagarajan has been the program chair of the ACS Division of Colloid and Surface Chemistry (1999-2007, 2010-present) and has served as the guest editor of many publications.
