Toward a unified description of the electrostatic assembly of microgels and nanoparticles

Francesco Brasili, Giovanni Del Monte, Angela Capocefalo +6

The combination of soft responsive particles, such as microgels, with nanoparticles (NPs) yields highly versatile complexes of great potential for applications, from ad-hoc plasmon…

Impact of polyelectrolyte adsorption on the rheology of concentrated Poly(N-Isopropylacrylamide) microgel suspensions

Rajam Elancheliyan, Edouard Chauveau, Domenico Truzzolillo

We explore the impact of three water-soluble polyelectrolytes (PEs) on the flow of concentrated suspensions of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAm) microgels with thermoresponsive…

Gelation and Re-entrance in Mixtures of Soft Colloids and Linear Polymers of Equal Size

D. Parisi, D. Truzzolillo, A. H. Slim +6

Liquid mixtures composed of colloidal particles and much smaller non-adsorbing linear homopolymers can undergo a gelation transition due to polymer-mediated depletion forces. We no…

The role of charge content in the two-step deswelling of Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)-based microgels

Rajam Elancheliyan, Giovanni Del Monte, Edouard Chauveau +3

Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)-based microgels are soft colloids undergoing a Volume Phase Transition (VPT) close to ambient temperature. Although widely employed for fundamental rese…

Controlling the volume fraction of glass-forming colloidal suspensions using thermosensitive host `mesogels'

J. S. Behra, A. Thiriez, D. Truzzolillo +2

The key parameter controlling the glass transition of colloidal suspensions is , the fraction of the sample volume occupied by the particles. Unfortunately, changing by vary…
