The conference had over 250 delegates, from all across the world good representation from Japan, China, Australia, USA, France, Germany, Holland, Sweden, Spain, Poland, Georgia as well as a substantial number of UK based researchers. This Special Issue of ǣProgress in Colloid and Polymer Scienceǥ collects together a selection of 20 papers, mostly presented during the Conference. The papers included cover the wide variety of topics from fundamentals in colloid and interface science to industrial applications.The current Special Issue alsoreflects the international character of the Conference UR - http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-28974-3 ER -
