Metastable liquids : concepts and principles / Pablo G. Debenedetti. - Princeton, N.J. : Princeton University Press, c1996. - 1 online resource (xiv, 411 p.). - Physical chemistry . - Physical chemistry (Princeton, N.J.) .
Includes bibliographical references and index.
Introduction: Metastable Liquids in Nature and Technology -- Thermodynamics -- Kinetics -- Supercooled Liquids -- Outlook -- Stability of Fluids: Thermodynamic and Mathematical Proofs -- Thermodynamics of Fluid Interfaces -- Definitions of Microscopic and Statistical Quantities. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. App. 1. App. 2. App. 3.
"Metastable Liquids provides a comprehensive treatment of the properties of liquids under conditions where the stable state is a vapor, a solid, or a liquid mixture of different composition. It examines the fundamental principles that govern the equilibrium properties, stability, relaxation mechanisms, and relaxation rates of metastable liquids. Building on the interplay of kinetics and thermodynamics that determines the thermophysical properties and structural relaxation of metastable liquids, it offers an in-depth treatment of thermodynamic stability theory, the statistical mechanics of metastability, nucleation, spinodal decomposition, supercooled liquids, and the glass transition. Both traditional topics - such as stability theory - and modern developments - including modern theories of nucleation and the properties of supercooled and glassy water - are treated in detail."--Jacket
