He covers the organic chemistry if surfactants, fluid surfaces and interfaces, surfactants in solution in monolayers and micelles, higher-level surfactants structures (such as liquid crystals, continuous biphases and microemulsions), solubilization and micellar and phase transfer catalysts, polymeric surfactants and interactions, foams and liquid aerosols, emulsions, solid surfaces and dispersions.
Considering it is difficult for the hydrophilic sodium derivative of polyethylene glycol formed in the reaction of polyethylene glycol with sodium hydroxide to diffuse into the hydrophobic PS-Cl polymeric matrix, phase transfer catalyst TBAB is introduced into the reaction system.
