We are starting the year deepening and expanding our information retrieval services on surfactants, emulsions, foams and other topics related with our R&D activities. A new bibliographical material will be available this month in the “treasure of technical documentation” section, in particular selected publications, not only free access papers, but also graduate thesis and dissertations, communications to congress and new FIRP booklets, which will be accessible for downloading from our web page. During 2010 first semester an i-library will be put in service in our web page with a restricted access limited to our professors and students, as well as to the researchers of our industrial partners. This i-library will offer a selection of well known textbooks, handbooks and encyclopedias to complement a package of about 2,000 of the most significant articles in surfactant science and technology as well as in an assortment of applications. You will find in what follows a serie of publications of interest in our area of research and development. Just do a CLICK on any reference to get a pdf copy.

Ciencia e Ingeniería is a scientific and technical journal covering all areas of engineering. It is published by the College of Engineering at University of The Andes, with contributions in Spanish and English, particularly from our university faculty members. It is an open access journal in Revincyt repository with a “A” ranking by FONACIT and ONCTI. Prof. Ana Forgiarini and María Teresa Celis who were appointed as Co-editor-in-Chief in 2009, leaderize a dozen of associate editors in various areas of knowledge. |
The Journal of Surfactants and Detergents is one of the publications of the American Oil Chemists’ Society published by Springer Verlag Germany. JSD publishes scientific and technological articles dealing with surfactants coming from petroleum or natural oil origin, their properties and applications, particularly in detergents, and their production and use in the formulation of a variety of products. Prof. Jean-Louis Salager, who was appointed as Editor-in-Chief by the AOCS in 2008, is conducting a team of 20 associate editors |
