Drying of agarose gels monitored by in-situ interferometry
Bosi Mao, Thibaut Divoux, Patrick Snabre
Hydrogels behave as viscoelastic soft solids and display a porous microstructure filled with water with typical amounts of 90\%~w/w or more. As such, these materials are highly sen…

Normal force controlled rheology applied to agar gelation
Bosi Mao, Thibaut Divoux, Patrick Snabre
A wide range of thermoreversible gels are prepared by cooling down to ambient temperature hot aqueous polymer solutions. During the sol-gel transition, such materials may experienc…

Syneresis and delayed detachment in agar plates
Thibaut Divoux, Bosi Mao, Patrick Snabre
Biogels made of crosslinked polymers such as proteins or polysaccharides behave as porous soft solids and store large amount of solvent. These gels undergo spontaneous aging, calle…
