Soft ULC Microgels at the Interface Interact and Flow as Hertzian-Like Colloids

José Ruiz-Franco, Tom Höfken, Maximilian M. Schmidt +3

Soft pair potentials predict a reentrant liquid phase for high concentrations, a behavior not observed experimentally. Here, very soft microgels confined at an oil-water interface…

Softness Matters: Effects of Compression on the Behavior of Adsorbed Microgels at Interfaces

Yuri Gerelli, Fabrizio Camerin, Steffen Bochenek +5

Deformable colloids and macromolecules adsorb at interfaces, as they decrease the interfacial energy between the two media. The deformability, or softness, of these particles plays…

Interfacial fluid rheology of soft particles

Maximilian M. Schmidt, José Ruiz-Franco, Steffen Bochenek +3

In situ interfacial rheology and numerical simulations are used to investigate microgel monolayers in a wide range of packing fractions, . The heterogeneous particle compre…

In-situ study of the impact of temperature and architecture on the interfacial structure of microgels

Steffen Bochenek, Fabrizio Camerin, Emanuela Zaccarelli +4

The structural characterization of microgels at interfaces is fundamental to understand both their 2D phase behavior and their role as stabilizers that enable emulsions to be broke…

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…
