Sažetak
The 12th Conference of the European Colloid and Interface Society (ECIS98) was held in Dubrovnik and Cavtat, Croatia, September 20-25, 1998, in the congress’ hotel Croatia. The members of the Scientific Committee for the meeting were: Mats Almgren, Robert Aveyard, Jean Candau, Mario Corti, Rudolf Klein, Peter Laggner, Henk Lekkerkerker, Greta Pifat-Mrzljak and Conxita Solans. In the Organizing Committee Đurđica Težak acted as Chairman with Mladen Martinis as Co-Chairman. Our thanks to people who helped with the day to day organisation of the meeting: Nada Filipović-Vinceković, Zlatko Mihalić, Suzana Šegota, Nenad Jalšenjak and especially to Mrs Irenka Fischer-Palković who acted as Secretary for the Conference. Generous donations, which helped to finance the Conference were made by Ministry of Science and Technology, and Ministry of Development and Reconstruction of the Republic of Croatia, Institute Rugjer Bošković Zagreb, Croatian National Tourist Board, INA Oil Industry Zagreb ; the financial support from the European Colloid and Interface Society is gratefully acknowledged. The conference was attended by 142 scientists from 22 different countries including, from outside Europe, participants from USA and Israel. The scientific program contained 60 oral presentations including 14 invited lectures, and 88 posters that were displayed during the 5 days of the conference. The contributions covered theoretical, experimental and technical aspects of modern colloid and interface science. It is, therefore, our great pleasure to offer you this Proceedings that contains a selection of 45 contributions presented at the conference and reflecting the work of 147 scientists. The contributions included in this volume have been rather arbitrarily sub-divided into six principle sections: Amphiphiles, Monolayers and Micelles ; Solutions and Suspensions, Emulsions and Microemulsions, Polymers, Interfaces, and Experimental techniques. The interdisciplinary nature of these sections bordering between physics and chemistry is evident. We would like to express our gratitude to the members of the Scientific Committee ; they helped us in the difficult task of selecting the contributions for oral or poster presentations. Indeed, their work continued after the conference was finished, by participation in the refereeing procedure for the papers submitted for publication in this volume of Progress in Colloid & Polymer Science. Our warmest thanks to the other Referees too. On behalf of the ECIS special thanks go to all participants and contributors who worked hard to create new scientific approaches. We hope that participants enjoyed all the good aspects of the conference: the presented results, lively trustful discussions in the conference room as well as in front of posters, and the “beach talks.” We are glad to have been able to grant a very low conference fee to young scientists.
