Nowadays surface science is a multidisciplinary area devoted to understand fundamental phenomena in nature which are essential for the development of many advanced materials and technological applications. It has been subject of interest in many fields of science and technology. The recent advances on the understanding of surfaces and interfaces properties such as surface energy, wettability, adhesion, super hydrophobicity and super hydrophilicity, monolayers and the development of theoretical models, by the use of modern and powerful techniques and methods, have opened new horizons in this fascinating area for scientist from academia and industry. The aim of this symposium is to discuss the recent advances in the fundamentals and theoretical models in surface science and to promote the exchange of ideas and knowledge among scientist working in this area, bringing together physicists, chemists, material scientists and engineers.
