Surface chemistry has numerous applications in analytical work, medicine, the paint industry, and so on. It is the investigation of chemical reactions that occur at the interface of two surfaces, which can be solid-liquid, solid-gas, solid-vacuum, liquid-gas, and so on. Surface engineering refers to some surface chemistry applications. There are a variety of phenomena that occur on the surface of substances, including –
- Adsorption
- Heterogeneous Catalysis
- Corrosion
- Crystallization
