Nichts geht ohne Chemie! Wenn Sie Georg Schwedt noch nicht kennen sollten: freuen Sie sich, dass ihn gerade entdeckt haben. Alle, die ihn kennen und schatzen wissen, was Sie erwartet: ein vergnuglich zu lesendes «Chemiebuch». Aber eines im besten Sinne – fundiert, praxisnah und mit vielen «Ausflugen» in die Wissenschafts- und Kulturgeschichte. Ob bei uns Menschen oder den Tieren und Pflanzen: wir funktionieren alle optimal, wenn die Chemie stimm ...
A coherent overview of the current status of injection molded optics, describing in detail all aspects of plastic optics, from design issues to production technology and quality control. This updated second edition is supplemented by a chapter on the equipment and process of injection wells as well as a look at recent applications. The contributors, each one a leading expert in their discipline, have either a background in or strong ties to the ...
Electromagnetic surface modes are present at all surfaces and interfaces between material of different dielectric properties. These modes have very important effects on numerous physical quantities: adhesion, capillary force, step formation and crystal growth, the Casimir effect etc. They cause surface tension and wetting and they give rise to forces which are important e.g. for the stability of colloids. This book is a useful and elegant approa ...
