06-801 Colloids, Polymers & Surfaces Laboratory I

6 units, Carnegie Mellon University

Classical characterization techniques for colloidal dispersions and interfaces are covered in this graduate level laboratory course. They include measurement of liquid surface tension, aqueous micelle formation and the critical micelle concentration, advancing contact angle of solids, colloidal flocculation and stability, particle sizing and adsorptive bubble separation. A course or background in physical chemistry of colloids and surfaces is highly recommended.
