Egon Matijević, 94, died on July 20 in Potsdam, N.Y.

Egon was a demanding professor who held his students to the highest standards, but who was always fair and encouraged them to learn. Egon was a brilliant scholar whose prolific and inspired research helped shape the modern field of colloid and surface science. He published 600 papers/patents and received several awards for his work. He delivered many plenary/keynote lectures worldwide.
