Zeta Potential: Fundamentals, Methods, and Applications provides an up-to-date exploration of the principles and practice of zeta potential measurements. Tailored for an interdisciplinary audience, the book is invaluable for researchers, engineers, and students in fields like materials science, chemistry, and nanotechnology. It delves into the role of zeta potential in complex heterogeneous liquids such as dispersions and emulsions, and its significance in biomedical and industrial applications. By offering comprehensive yet accessible coverage, this book aims to bridge the educational gap and enhance understanding of this essential electric double layer characteristic.

In addition to covering fundamental principles, the book emphasizes modern measurement methods, including electrophoresis, electroacoustics, and streaming current. It highlights the switch towards using zeta potential in formulation and quality control, providing a thorough review of published research. This allows readers to find data relevant to their projects. The book is a crucial resource for those who wish to navigate the complexities of zeta potential applications, ensuring precise and reliable results in their work.

Andrei S. Dukhin is CEO and Co-Founder of Dispersion Technology, Inc., USA. He has been a leader in the development of a new technology for characterizing complex liquids that employs ultrasound for characterizing interfacial chemistry, particle size, and rheological properties of said systems. He has authored three books published by Elsevier, most recently Characterization of Liquids, Nano- and Microparticulates, and Porous Bodies using Ultrasound with Philip J. Goetz back in 2010. He holds 7 USA patents on electroacoustic methods of measuring zeta potential and has published more than 120 scientific papers. He established Dispersion Technology Inc, which installs more than 850 instruments for measuring zeta potential in 30 countries. Dr. Renliang Xu worked for three major particle characterization instrumentation companies in USA and UK, i.e., Malvern Instruments, Beckman-Coulter, and Micromeritics Instrument Corporation, in leading roles associated with zeta potential instrumentation. He has authored 3 professional books: one by Springer and two by Chemical Industry Press in Chinese, as well as five non-fiction books. He holds 3 USA patents on particle characterization and has published 70+ scientific papers.
