An International Symposium on Micelles, Microemulsions and Monolayers: Quarter Century Progress and New Horizons; August 1995; Gainesville, Florida

小行星9503607 在过去的25年里（1970-1995），人们对胶束、微乳液和单分子膜进行了大量的研究。 这项工作不仅具有基本的科学意义，而且与广泛的技术有关，包括去污、微电子、纳米颗粒合成、食品、制药和生物技术。 胶束的动力学性质，如压力跃变、温度跃变、停流、超声吸收、冲击波等弛豫时间的测量，为胶束溶液的弛豫过程和胶束的寿命提供了非常有价值的信息。 在过去的25年中，微乳液已被证明与提高石油采收率，制备纳米磁性材料，银卤化物，电子材料和超导体有关。 许多反应如微乳液聚合也被证明是非常有希望的亚微米胶乳粒子的形成。 在单分子膜研究领域，许多新技术（如扫描隧道显微镜、原子力显微镜、布鲁斯特角显微镜、吸收光谱等）被设计出来用于研究单分子膜。 关于这一主题的国际专题讨论会将由佛罗里达大学、国家科学基金会、工业界和与会者以登记费的形式提供资金。 约30名来自美国大学的研究生和博士后研究员将被邀请参加这次研讨会。 将有三位全体发言人，二十位特邀发言人以及关于这三个主题的许多口头和海报介绍。 在研讨会结束时，将组织一个为期半天的讲习班。 这将由一个从受邀演讲者中选出的世界级研究人员小组参加。 研讨会将分为三组：胶束，微乳液，和单分子膜。 每个小组将总结在该领域取得的四分之一世纪的进展，并列出在研讨会上提出的新指标。 这些总结将由主要研究者（Shah博士）汇编，并将构成提交给国家科学基金会的最终报告的基础。 该报告还将说明专题讨论会上讨论的各项议题的科学和技术相关性。 研讨会将于1995年8月28日至31日在佛罗里达大学举行。 研讨会的头三天将包括所有三个领域的特邀演讲和一般性论文。 第四个半天将用于研讨会。 ***

9503607 Shah In the past twenty-five years (1970-1995), considerable work has been done on micelles, microemulsions and monolayers. This work is not only of basic scientific interest, but is also relevant to a broad range of technologies including detergency, microelectronics, nanoparticle synthesis, food, pharmaceutical and biotechnology. Dynamic properties of micelles such as relaxation time measurements by pressure-jump, temperature-jump, stopped-flow, ultrasonic absorption, shock wave, etc. have produced very valuable information about the relaxation processes in micellar solutions as well as for the life-time of micelles. During the past twenty-five years, microemulsions have been shown to be relevant to enhanced oil recovery, and preparation of nanoparticles of magnetic materials, silver halides, electronic materials and superconductops. Many reactions such as polymerization in microemulsions have also been shown to be very promising for the formation of submicron latex particles. In the area of monomolecular films, many novel techniques have been designed to study such systems (such as STM, AFM, Brewster Angle Microscopy, absorption spectroscopy, etc.) An International Symposium on this topic will be organized with funding from the University of Florida, National Science Foundation, industry and participants in the form of registration fees. About thirty graduate students and post doctoral associates from universities in the United States will be invited to participate in this symposium. There will be three plenary speakers, and twenty invited speakers as well as many oral and poster presentations on these three topics. At the end of the symposium, a half-day workshop will be organized. This will be attended by a panel of world class researchers chosen from among the invited speakers. The workshop will be organized into three groups: micelles, microemulsions, and monolayers. Each group will summarize the quarter century progress made in that area, and list the new ho rizons as presented in the symposium. These summaries will be compiled by the Principal Investigator (Dr. Shah) and will form the basis for the final report to be submitted to the National Science Foundation. This report will also include a description of the scientific and technological relevance of various topics discussed in the symposium. The symposium will be held August 28-31,1995, at the University of Florida. The first three days of the symposium will include the invited talks and general papers in all three areas. The fourth half day will be devoted to the workshop. ***
