Bicontinuous soft solids with a gradient in channel size designed for energy storage applications
David J. French, Andrew B. Schofield, Job H. J. Thijssen
We present examples of bicontinuous interfacially jammed emulsion gels ("bijels") with a designed gradient in the channel size along the sample. These samples are created by quench…
Complex High Internal-Phase Emulsions that can Form Interfacial Films with Tuneable Morphologies
Tao Li, Ruipei Xie, Wei Chen +2
High internal phase emulsions (HIPEs) are considered as an important functional material and have been the focus of intense development effort, but it has not been possible to alte…
Contactless Interfacial Rheology: Probing Shear at Liquid-Liquid Interfaces without an Interfacial Geometry via Fluorescence Microscopy
Iain Muntz, James A. Richards, Sam Brown +3
Interfacial rheology is important for understanding properties such as Pickering emulsion or foam stability. Currently, the response is measured using a probe directly attached to…
Particle-Size Effects in the Formation of Bicontinuous Pickering Emulsions
M. Reeves, A. T. Brown, A. B. Schofield +2
We demonstrate that the formation of bicontinuous emulsions stabilized by interfacial particles (bijels) is more robust when nanoparticles rather than microparticles are used. Emul…
Eliminating cracking during drying
Qiu Jin, Peng Tan, Andrew B. Schofield +1
When colloidal suspensions dry, stresses build up and cracks often occur - a phenomenon undesirable for important industries such as paint and ceramics. We demonstrate an effective…
Understanding the Low-Frequency Modes in Disordered Systems at Single-Particle Level
Peng Tan, Ning Xu, A. B. Schofield +1
Normal modes provide a fundamental basis for understanding crucial properties of solids, such as the thermal conductivity, the heat capacity and the sound propagation. While the no…
