Surface techniques for a successful transformation to the natural space

This presentation is aimed at giving the basic principles behind the surface techniques ellipsometry, QCM-D, and AFM. The focus will be put on how these techniques can be used to better understand how ingredients, products, and formulations work at and with various substrates, and how those learnings can be used for making better decisions in your development efforts. Results from several projects will be used to exemplify how adsorption and deposition (of surfactants, polymers, and biomolecules), as well as removal and cleaning (of fouled surfaces), can be traced and understood through the usage of techniques.
