Surface and interface science examines the projr-erties of materials and products at the surfece and at the locations where two or more materials meet. The discipline typically focuses on surfece analysis, surfece modification, and interface science. Surface modification changes the properties of a surface, such as the hy-drophobicity, lubricity, chemistry, or topography, and surface analysis tells what those properties are for the material being studied. Interface science can include studying interactions between materials and how well the materials adhere to one another, as well as how to achieve desired interactions. The interface between a material and a solution or air can also be studied. 

Surface and interface science encompasses several disciplines, including surface analysis, interface analysis, and surface modification.
