Internal structure and swelling behaviour of in silico microgel particles
Lorenzo Rovigatti, Nicoletta Gnan, Emanuela Zaccarelli
Microgels are soft colloids that, in virtue of their polymeric nature, can react to external stimuli such as temperature or pH by changing their size. The resulting swelling/deswel…
"In silico" synthesis of microgel particles
Nicoletta Gnan, Lorenzo Rovigatti, Maxime Bergman +1
Microgels are colloidal-scale particles individually made of crosslinked polymer networks that can swell and deswell in response to external stimuli, such as changes to temperature…
Limiting the valence: advancements and new perspectives on patchy colloids, soft functionalized nanoparticles and biomolecules
Emanuela Bianchi, Barbara Capone, Ivan Coluzza +2
Limited bonding valence, usually accompanied by well-defined directional interactions and selective bonding mechanisms, is nowadays considered among the key ingredients to create c…
