S.; Ono, Syu; Kondo, Sohei; Buff, Frank P.\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003e135 We first describe the thermodynamic theory of surface tension and adsorption, by the method of the dividing surface of GIBBS. The use of a dividing surface or its equivalent is indispensable for the treatment of a curved interface, as otherwise the concepts of the area and curvature of the interface, cannot be pre­ cisely defined. In the case of a plane interface, however, the concept of the dividing surface is not necessary and a valid alternative exposition has been proposed by GUGGEN­ HEIM [3J, [4J in treating the interface zone as a separate entity of some definite thickness bounded by two mathematical planes. We make, however, little mention of this method, since it seems to be of only minor importance in connec­ tion with the statistical treatment of an interface. To avoid any ambiguity, the treatment of a spherical interface given in this article is based not on the original method of GIBBS but on the method modified by HILL [8J and KONDO [9]. This method, however, is not applicable to non­ spherical interfaces, which will not be dealt with in this article. Although all the relations for a plane interface can be deduced from the cor­ responding ones for a spherical interface by putting the curvature equal to zero, the planar and the spherical cases are considered separately because of the prac­ tical importance and easy physical visualization of a plane interface.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-02-25\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783642459498\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-642-45947-4\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 244.0cm x170.0cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 320.0\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Berlin Heidelberg","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44480463503500,"sku":"9783642459498","price":49.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783642459498.jpg?v=1757612288","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9783642459498","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
