Effective interactions, structure, and pressure in charge-stabilized colloidal suspensions: Critical assessment of charge renormalization methods

Mariano E. Brito, Gerhard Nägele, Alan R. Denton

Charge-stabilized colloidal suspensions display a rich variety of microstructural and thermodynamic properties, which are determined by electro-steric interactions between all ioni…

Osmotic Swelling Behavior of Surface-Charged Ionic Microgels

Mohammed O. Alziyadi, Alan R. Denton

In recent years, ionic microgels have garnered much attention due to their unique properties, especially their stimulus-sensitive swelling behavior. The tunable response of these s…

Osmotic Pressure and Swelling Behavior of Ionic Microcapsules

Mohammed O. Alziyadi, Alan R. Denton

Ionic microcapsules are hollow shells of hydrogel, typically 10-1000 nm in radius, composed of cross-linked polymer networks that become charged and swollen in a good solvent. The…

Structural correlations in highly asymmetric binary charged colloidal mixtures

Elshad Allahyarov, Hartmut Löwen, Alan Denton

We explore structural correlations of strongly asymmetric mixtures of binary charged colloids within the primitive model of electrolytes considering large charge and size ratios of…

Influence of Solvent Quality on Depletion Potentials in Colloid-Polymer Mixtures

Alan R. Denton, Wyatt J. Davis

As first explained by the classic Asakura-Oosawa (AO) model, effective attractive forces between colloidal particles induced by depletion of nonadsorbing polymers can drive demixin…

Do cavities matter? Hollow microgels resist crystallization

Andrea Scotti, Alan. R. Denton, Monia Brugnoni +2

Solutions of microgels have been widely used as model systems to gain insight into atomic condensed matter and complex fluids. We explore the thermodynamic phase behavior of hollow…
