Boris Derjaguin was a prominent Soviet physicist and one of the founders of the field of surface science. He is best known for his work on the theories of intermolecular interactions, particularly in the context of colloid chemistry and surface forces. His research significantly advanced the understanding of how molecules interact with surfaces and with each other, especially at small scales.
