Colloid Journal ( Kolloidnyi Zhurnal ) is the only journal in Russia that publishes the results of research in the area of chemical science dealing with the disperse state of matter and surface phenomena in disperse systems. The journal covers experimental and theoretical works on a great variety of colloid and surface phenomena: the structure and properties of interfaces; adsorption phenomena and structure of adsorption layers of surfactants; capillary phenomena; wetting films; wetting and spreading; and detergency. The formation of colloid systems their molecular-kinetic and optical properties surface forces interaction of colloidal particles stabilization and criteria of stability loss of different disperse systems (lyosols and aerosols suspensions emulsions foams and micellar systems) are also topics of the journal. Colloid Journal also includes the phenomena of electro- and diffusiophoresis electro- and thermoosmosis and capillary and reverse osmosis i.e. phenomena dealing with the existence of diffusion layers of molecules and ions in the vicinity of the interface.
