Biophysics of Skin and Its Treatments: Structural Nanotribological and Nanomechanical Studies

This book provides a comprehensive overview of the structural, nanotribological and nanomechanical properties of skin with and without cream treatment as a function of operating environment. The biophysics of skin as the outer layer covering human or animal body is discussed as a complex biological structure. Skin cream is used to improve skin health and create a smooth, soft, and flexible surface with moist perception by altering the surface roughness, friction, adhesion, elastic modulus, and surface charge of the skin surface.Biophysics of Skin and Its Treatments: Structural, Nanotribological, and Nanomechanical Studies is written by Bharat Bhushan and published by Springer.
