Publisher's Note
This volume in the Cosmetic Science and Technology series covers the important rheological aspects of cosmetic and toiletry formulations, including theoretical physical chemistry, instrumentation and measuring techniques, raw materials and stability predictions. The work discusses the specific rheological requirements of nail polish, antipersirants and deodorants, dentifrices, hair care products, creams and lotions.
Industry Reviews One underlying theme of this comprehensive review of flow characteristics is demystification of rheology so that people in the cosmetics and toiletries industries can understand their product's behavior and not think that only a rheology specialist is qualified to do so. Coverage includes a general introduction and discussion of instrumentation and additives, followed by product chapters on nails, antiperspirants, teeth, hair, and creams and lotions. Concluding chapters cover stability in rheologically modified systems and rheological profiles. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or. Greer
