Multiphase Systems

Type of study -
Language of instruction Czech
Code 619-0015/01
Abbreviation VS
Course title Multiphase Systems
Coordinating department Department of Physical Chemistry and Theory of Technological Processes
Course coordinator Fiktivní Uživatel

Course aims

- to use thermodynamic quantities for description of colloidal and coarsely
dispersion systems
- to describe properties of colloidal systems (kinetic, mechanical, electrical and
optical properties)
- to observe the stability of colloidal systems and to learn how to influence it
- to explain the influence of phase interface on properties of heterogeneous
dispersion systems - interfacial tension, contact angle, Laplace-Young equation
and Kelvin equation, Gibbs adsorption isotherm, adsorption equilibrium
- to apply gained theoretical knowledge in routine
