Anisotropic viscoelastic phase separation in polydisperse hard rods: non-sticky gelation

Claudia Ferreiro-Córdova, C. Patrick Royall, Jeroen S. van Duijneveldt

Spinodal demixing of systems into two phases having very different viscosities leads to viscoelastic networks, i.e. gels. Here we consider demixing in a colloidal system where one…
