Hierarchical Dynamics and Time-Length Scale Superposition in Glassy Suspensions of Ultra-Low Crosslinked Microgels
A. Martinelli, R. Elancheliyan, A. Scotti +3
We employ small-angle X-ray and dynamic light scattering to investigate the microscopic structure and dynamics of dense suspensions of ultra-low crosslinked (ULC) poly(N-isopropyla…
Smart copolymer microgels with high volume phase transition temperature: Composition, swelling, and morphology
Aditi Gujare, Stefanie Uredat, Jonas Runge +4
The thermosensitivity and microstructure of microgels made by copolymerizing standard microgel-forming monomers with more hydrophilic comonomers is investigated, with the aim of in…
Water-in-water PEG/DEX/protein microgel emulsions: effect of microgel particle size on the rate of emulsion phase separation
Andrzej Balis, Georgi Gochev, Domenico Truzzolillo +3
Protein nanoparticles have been proven to be highly effective stabilizers of water-in-water emulsions obtained from a number of different types of aqueous two-phase systems (ATPS).…
Emergent scales and spatial correlations at the yielding transition of glassy materials
Stefano Aime, Domenico Truzzolillo
Glassy materials yield under large external mechanical solicitations. Under oscillatory shear, yielding shows a well-known rheological fingerprint, common to samples with widely di…
