Recent applications of neutron reflectometry to the study of wet interfaces are described. An outline is given of the basic principles that allow the techniques to determine composition and structure in a variety of situations. These are the adsorption of surfactant molecules at air/liquid and solid/liquid interfaces, the shape of the segment-density profiles of different types of polymer, including block copolymers and polyelectrolytes, adsorption in mixed surfactant and polymer/surfactant systems, and interfacial systems of biophysical interest.
