Industrial Applications of Individual and Mixed Surfactant Systems - Volume 1

Malik Abdul Rub did Ph.D. in Physical Chemistry from Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh, India, in 2011. Dr. Abdul Rub Malik currently employed as an associate professor in King Abdulaziz University at Centre of Excellence for Advanced Materials and Research (CEAMR) has been actively involved in research focusing on solution and colloidal behavior of surfactants/amphiphiles, mixed micellization study of amphiphilic drugs with different additives, and thermodynamics of amphiphilic systems. Dr. Malik Abdul Rub has secured more than 300 research articles publications, 2 books, and also communicated the US patent. Dr. Malik also continuously secured position in Top 2% Scientists Worldwide published by Stanford University
Dr. Naved Azum is currently an associate professor at Center of Excellence for Advanced Materials Research, King Abdulaziz University, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. He has focused on experimental and computational chemistry, particularly on the studies of drug-excipients interactions. Drug-excipient interactions aim to identify, quantify, and predict potential interactions, whether physical or chemical, and assess their impact on the manufacturing, quality, and performance of the final drug product. These studies generally rely on existing knowledge of the physico-chemical properties and degradation mechanisms of drugs and excipients. The studies also explore the influence of several physical factors, in addition to evaluating the direct interactions between the drug and the excipients. These things are known to make drug-excipient interactions more likely and stronger by changing the physico-chemical properties or the rate at which the drugs and/or excipients break down.
