Bibliography
This bibliography is collected from several internal compilations and so has a non-uniform style. However it contains useful information. Suggestions for other suitable referencees to include are welcomed.

1. Allcock and Lampe, Contemporary Polymer Chemistry. Prentice & Hall publisher,1981. For an introduction to the Zimm Plot method of determining molecular weights by Static Light Scattering read chapter 14 in reference 1 or chapter 5 in reference 2

2. Hiemenz, Principles of Colloid and Surface Chemistry. Marcel Dekker publisher, 1986. See note above

3. Kratochvil. Classical Light Scattering from Polymer Solutions, Elsevier publisher. 1987. An introductory textbook on classical light scattering from polymer solutions

4. Casassa and Berry, "Light Scattering from Solutions of Macromolecules", chapter 5 in Polymer Molecular Weights. Part I, P.E. Slade editor, Marcel Dekker publisher. 1975. A review chapter on SLS presented at the intermediate level.

5. M.B. Huglin, editor, Light Scattering from Polymer Solutions, Academic Press, 1972. The classic text on SLS written mostly before the widespread introduction of lasers, personal computers, and DLS. It is full of valuable data and insight but is long out of print.

6. W. Burchard, "Static and Dynamic Light Scattering from Branched Polymers and Biopolymers", in Light Scattering from Polymers, Advances in Polymer Science series, Number 48, Springer Verlag, 1983. An advanced treatise on light scattering on branched polymers. It contains, among other advanced information, tables of particle scattering factors for a variety of molecular shapes. It also summarizes different methods for plotting angular SLS and DLS data.

7. K.S. Schmitz, An Introduction to Dynamic Light Scattering by Macromolecules, Academic Press, 1990. A textbook on DLS. Despite its title, it is suitable for use in a graduate level course.

D.H. Everett, Basic Principles of Colloid Science. published by The Royal Society of Chemistry, 1988. This excellent, introductory, yet in-depth text can be purchased by writing to: The Royal Society of Chemistry, Distribution Center, Blackhorse Road, Letchworth, Herts. SG6 1HN, United Kingdom.

P.C. Hiemenz, Principles of Colloid and Surface Chemists, second edition, Marcel Dekker publisher, 1986. Attractive forces, double layer theory, and electrokinetic phenomena are discussed in Chapters 1 1, 12 and 13. Sample calculations are shown. If you can't get Everett's book, get this one.

A. Kitahara and A. Watanabe, editors, Electrical Phenomena at Interfaces. Fundamentals. Measurements and Applications. Marcel Dekker publisher, 1984. Part III of this book is devoted entirely to applications including chapters on detergency, flotation, fibers, paper, electrocapillary emulsification, pigments and paints, cosmetics, antirusting, electrokinetic phenomena in biological systems, and reproduction in copying and electrophoretic display. This English language book grew out of a famous 1972 textbook published in Japanese: Kaimen Deny Gensho-Riron. Sokutei, Oyo.

D.J. Shaw, Electrophoresis, Academic Press, 1969. Long out of print, if your local library has a copy, read the first 5 chapters, about 85 pages. These pages contain a concise review of double layer theory and how zeta potential is calculated from mobility. An excellent summary.

R.J. Hunter Zeta Potential in Colloid Science. Principles and Applications, Academic Press, 1981. The bible for anyone seriously interested in zeta potential. Each chapter contains a wealth of references to the original research. Written at the graduate student and research level.

H.G. Barth editor, Modern Methods of Particle Size Analysis. Wiley-Interscience 1984. Chapter 3 is an introduction to particle sizing using dynamic light scattering techniques.

SUGGESTED READING LIST

1. "Introduction to Colloid and Surface Chemistry", .3rd Edition, by D.J. Shaw publ. Butterworths (London) 1980. Very readable. Good introduction to the whole field of Colloid science. Chapter on electrophoresis and zeta potential.

2. "Electrophoresis". by D.J. Shaw, publ. Academic Press (New York), 1969. Again. very readable. Covers whole field of principles, methods and applications of various forms of electrophoresis.

3. "Control of Colloid Stability Through Zeta Potential". by Thomas M. Riddick. publ. Zeta-Meter. Inc. (New York) 1981. Outdated and somewhat overwhelming but lots of data on applications of zeta potential. particularly in the biomedical area. Heavily slanted, of course, to use of his Zeta-Meter.

4. "Zeta Potential in Colloid Science. Principles and Applications", ed. Robert J. Hunter, publ. Academic Press (hew York) 1981. Series of monographs: more for the purist. Written at the research level but fairly readable. Lots of references to original papers, etc. A good reference source.

5. "Colloid Dispersions". ed. J.W. Goodwin, publ. Royal Society of Chemistry London) 1982 (Special Publication #43). Review of most important topics in Colloid science. Based on review symposium. A bit specialized but good first introductory chapter. Again, lots of references.
