Soft colloids for complex interfacial assemblies
Fabrizio Camerin, Emanuela Zaccarelli
The design of complex materials and the formation of specific patterns often arise from the properties of the individual building blocks. In this respect, colloidal systems offer a…
Dynamical properties of different models of elastic polymer rings: confirming the link between deformation and fragility
Nicoletta Gnan, Fabrizio Camerin, Giovanni Del Monte +2
We report extensive numerical simulations of different models of 2D polymer rings with internal elasticity. We monitor the dynamical behavior of the rings as a function of the pack…
The effect of internal architecture on the assembly of soft particles at fluid interfaces
Jacopo Vialetto, Fabrizio Camerin, Fabio Grillo +3
Monolayers of soft colloidal particles confined at fluid interfaces have been attracting increasing interest for fundamental studies and applications alike. However, establishing t…
Charge affinity and solvent effects in numerical simulations of ionic microgels
G. Del Monte, F. Camerin, A. Ninarello +3
Ionic microgel particles are intriguing systems in which the properties of thermo-responsive polymeric colloids are enriched by the presence of charged groups. In order to rational…
Tuning the rheological behavior of colloidal gels through competing interactions
José Ruiz-Franco, Fabrizio Camerin, Nicoletta Gnan +1
We study colloidal gels formed by competing electrostatic repulsion and short-range attraction by means of extensive numerical simulations under external shear. We show that, upon…
Microgels at interfaces behave as 2D elastic particles featuring reentrant dynamics
Fabrizio Camerin, Nicoletta Gnan, José Ruiz-Franco +3
Soft colloids are increasingly used as model systems to address fundamental issues such as crystallisation and the glass and jamming transitions. Among the available classes of sof…
