Volume 1 of Formulation Science and Technology is a survey of the theory of formulations in a variety of fields, as well as their rheological characterization. It offers in-depth explanations for research scientists, universities, and industry practitioners looking for a complete understanding of how different formulations behave and how to influence their performance.
