Drying of Soft Colloidal Films

Keumkyung Kuk, Julian Ringling, Kevin Gräff +7

Thin films made of deformable micro- and nano-units, such as biological membranes, polymer interfaces, and particle-laden liquid surfaces, exhibit a complex behavior during drying,…

Interfacial assembly of anisotropic core-shell and hollow microgels

Anne C. Nickel, Andrey A. Rudov, Igor I. Potemkin +2

Microgels, cross-linked polymers with submicrometer size, are ideal soft model systems. While spherical microgels have been studied extensively, anisotropic microgels have been har…

Anisotropic Microgels show their Soft Side

Anne C. Nickel, Timon Kratzenberg, Steffen Bochenek +6

Anisotropic, submicrometer sized particles are versatile systems providing interesting features in creating ordering in 2-dimensional systems. Combining hard ellipsoids with a soft…

Influence of charges on the behavior of polyelectrolyte microgels confined to oil-water interfaces

Maximilian M. Schmidt, Steffen Bochenek, Alexey A. Gavrilov +2

The role of electrostatics on the interfacial properties of polyelectrolyte microgels has been discussed controversially in the literature. It is not yet clear if, or how, Coulomb…

Phase Behavior of Melts of Diblock-Copolymers with One Charged Block

Alexey A. Gavrilov, Alexander V. Chertovich, Igor I. Potemkin

In this work we investigated the phase behavior of melts of block-copolymers with one charged block by means of dissipative particle dynamics with explicit electrostatic interactio…
