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…
