The application and utilization of sprays is not new, and in modern society, it is extensive enough that almost every industry and household uses some form of sprays. What is new is an increasing scientific interest in atomization - the need to understand the physical structure of liquids under conditions of higher shear rates and interaction with gaseous flow. This need is being met with the publication of Atomization and Sprays, an authoritative, international journal presenting high quality research, applications, and review papers.

噴霧劑的應用和利用并不新鮮，在現代社會，噴霧劑的應用非常廣泛，幾乎每個行業和家庭都使用某種形式的噴霧劑。新出現的是對原子化日益增長的科學興趣——需要了解在較高剪切速率和與氣體流動相互作用的條件下液體的物理結構。這一需求正通過出版《霧化與噴霧》得到滿足，這是一本權威的國際期刊，展示高質量的研究、應用和評論論文。
