Inter-Species Interactions in Dual, Fibrous Gel Enable Control of Gel Structure and Rheology
Mauro L Mugnai, Rose Tchuenkam Batoum, Emanuela Del Gado
Natural and synthetic multi-component gels display emergent properties, which implies that they are more than just the sum of their components. This warrants the investigation of t…
