The Joint Colloids Group organises a range of technical meetings each year for the benefit of members. Details of future events can be found by following

Colloid and Interface Science is central to our understanding and control of an incredible array of materials, products and processes. Colloidal materials are essentially finely divided dispersions of one material in another. They include a variety of complex materials, eg liquids in liquids (emulsions), solids in liquids (dispersions), liquids in gases (aerosols or foams), solid dispersions and biosystems. The key defining feature is the large interfacial surface area.
Recently, the basic science of this area has been critical in our understanding and exploitation of many aspects of nanotechnology.Please note that membership of this forum does not equate to membership of the Royal Society of Chemistry Colloids and Interface Science Group.
Membership of the RSC Interest Group is open to all members of the Royal Society of Chemistry - please email membership@rsc.org for further information.
