Surface-Mediated Molecular Transport of a Lipophilic Fluorescent Probe in Polydisperse Oil-in-Water Emulsions
Marius R. Bittermann, Tatiana I. Morozova, Santiago F. Velandia +4
Emulsions often act as carriers for water-insoluble solutes that are delivered to a specific target. The molecular transport of solutes in emulsions can be facilitated by surfactan…
Transition from viscoelastic to fracture-like peeling of pressure-sensitive adhesives
Marion Grzelka, Stefan Kooij, Sander Woutersen +2
We investigate the process of the slow unrolling of a roll of typical pressure-sensitive adhesive, Scotch tape, under its own weight. Probing the peeling velocities down to nm/s re…
Light-switchable deposits from evaporating drops containing motile microalgae
Marius R. Bittermann, Daniel Bonn, Sander Woutersen +1
Deposits from evaporating drops have shown to take a variety of shapes, depending on the physicochemical properties of both solute and solvent. Classically, the evaporation of drop…
Phase Separation by Entanglement of Active Polymerlike Worms
A. Deblais, A. C. Maggs, D. Bonn +1
We investigate the aggregation and phase separation of thin, living T. tubifex worms that behave as active polymers. Randomly dispersed active worms spontaneously aggregate to form…
