Beschreibung
The 13th Conference of the European Colloid and Interface Society (ECIS 99) was held in September 1999 in Dublin, Ireland. It brought together scientists from academic research and industry within the field of physics and chemistry of colloids and interfaces. The Conference focused on the following topics: - Surfactant colloids; Polymer colloids and solid particles; Food colloids; Soft matter interfaces; Biosystems; Rheology; Experimental methods in colloid and interface science.
