Propulsion, deformation, and confinement response of hollow nanocellulose millimotors

Maryam Hosseini, Firoozeh Babayekhorasani, Ziyi Guo +3

Micromotor and nanomotor particles are typically made using dense solid particles that can sediment or be trapped in confined flow environments. Creation of much larger motors shou…

Molecular and colloidal transport in bacterial cellulose hydrogels

Firoozeh Babayekhorasani, Maryam Hosseini, Patrick T. Spicer

Bacterial cellulose biofilms are complex networks of strong interwoven nanofibers that control transport and protect bacterial colonies in the film. Design of diverse applications…

Geometry and kinetics determine the microstructure in arrested coalescence of Pickering emulsion droplets

Zhaoyu Xie, Christopher J. Burke, Badel Mbanga +2

An important strategy to stabilize emulsions is to arrest coalescence of the constituent droplets with an opposing rheological force. Colloidal particles adsorbed on the surface of…

Arrested coalescence of viscoelastic droplets: Ellipsoid shape effects and restructuring

Chen Hao, Zhaoyu Xie, Timothy J. Atherton +1

The stable configurations formed by two viscoelastic, ellipsoid-shaped droplets during their arrested coalescence has been investigated using micromanipulation experiments. Ellipso…

Arrested coalescence of viscoelastic droplets: Triplet shape and restructuring

Prerna Dahiya, Andrew DeBenedictis, Timothy J. Atherton +4

The stability of shapes formed by three viscoelastic droplets during their arrested coalescence has been investigated using micromanipulation experiments. Addition of a third dropl…

The role of curvature anisotropy in the ordering of spheres on an ellipsoid

Christopher J. Burke, Badel L. Mbanga, Zengyi Wei +2

Non-spherical emulsion droplets can be stabilized by densely packed colloidal particles adsorbed at their surface. In order to understand the microstructure of these surface packin…
