Magnetic Soft Matter: Fundamentals and Applications

Magnetically responsive soft matter is a colloidal model system where interparticle interactions can be tuned through external magnetic fields. Covering the most recent literature in the field, with special emphasis on the physical mechanisms behind their rheological behaviour, this book aims to demonstrate the controllability of soft matter through an external (magnetic) stimulus.

With chapters written by leading experts, fundamental topics are complemented by cutting edge research, in par...
