Impact of particle-size polydispersity on the quality of thin-film colloidal crystals
Mariam Arif, Andrew B. Schofield, Fraser H. J. Laidlaw +2
Size polydispersity in colloidal particles can disrupt order in their self-assembly, ultimately leading to a complete suppression of crystallization. In contrast to various computa…
Decoupling elasticity and electrical conductivity of carbon black gels filled with insulating non-Brownian grains
Thomas Larsen, John R. Royer, Fraser H. J. Laidlaw +4
A unique bistable transition has been identified in granular/colloidal gel-composites, resulting from shear-induced phase separation of the gel phase into dense blobs. In energy ap…
Controlling the rheo-electric properties of graphite/carbon black suspensions by 'flow-switching'
Thomas Larsen, John R. Royer, Fraser H. J. Laidlaw +4
The ability to manipulate rheological and electrical properties of colloidal carbon black gels makes them attractive in composites for energy applications such as batteries and fue…
Rheology of Polydisperse non-Spherical Graphite Particles Suspended in Mineral Oil
Th. Larsen, A. L. Søbye, J. R. Royer +5
We study the role of filler concentration and microphysics on the rheology of polydisperse flake-graphite particles suspended in Newtonian mineral oil. Under steady shear, our samp…
