Description
Summary:The book presents the quantitative aspects of controlled release systems. The factors or parameters governing the performance of these systems are reviewed and discussed, along with the principles for their design. The major mathematical models applicable to the systems are classified and analyzed. A stochastic approach to modelling the diffusion process pertinent to some of the systems is also introduced. The book provides an introduction to students and scientists in this area with a comprehensive coverage of the principles (both qualitative and quantitative) behind the major classes of controlled release systems. The book can be a ready reference for researchers and practitioners in analyzing and interpreting their experimental results.
