INTERFACE CHEMISTRY
• An interface is the boundary between 2
phases where properties differ from those
exhibited in the bulk phases.
• Surface Chemistry or Interface Chemistry
occurs in the interfacial zone.
• For the phases solid, liquid, gas there are
  5 Interfaces :     g-l,    g-s,    l-l,    l-s,    s-s
• 8 Disperse systems: dis. Phase- dis. Medium
colloid s-l, emulsion l-l, foam g-l,
liquid aerosol l-g, solid aerosol s-g,
s. foam g-s, s. emulsion l-s, s. suspension s-s
