Although first described by Winsor in 1954, the chemistry and technology of microemulsions attracts considerable research interest. Until relatively recently, microemulsions were not used in large scale applications as their phase behaviour and microstructure were not well understood and large amounts of surfactant were needed for their formulation. With increased understanding of their behaviour and significantly improved methods for formulating and tuning their properties, microemulsions are becoming increasingly useful in a range of industrial and research applications.

Reviews for Microemulsions: Background, New Concepts, Applications, Perspectives
"A good overview of the area is presented. This book would be of interest to postgraduates and industry researchers in areas including healthcare, detergents, and fine-chemical production, and points the way to future research directions for this topic." (Angewandte Chemie, June 2009)
