The Importance of Boundary Conditions for Fluctuation Induced Forces between Colloids at Interfaces
, 2006 We calculate the effective fluctuation induced force between spherical or disk-like colloids trapped at a flat, fluid interface mediated by thermally excited capillary waves.

Effects of colloid polydispersity on the phase behaviour of colloid-polymer mixtures [PDF]
, 2004 We study theoretically the equilibrium phase behaviour of a mixture of polydisperse hard-sphere colloids and monodisperse polymers, modelled using the Asakura-Oosawa model within the free volume approximation of Lekkerkerker et al. We compute full phase diagrams in the plane of colloid and polymer volume fractions, using the moment free energy method ...

Effect of fluid-colloid interactions on the mobility of a thermophoretic microswimmer in non-ideal fluids [PDF]
Soft Matter 11, 6703-6715 (2015), 2015 Janus colloids propelled by light, e.g., thermophoretic particles, offer promising prospects as artificial microswimmers. However, their swimming behavior and its dependence on fluid properties and fluid-colloid interactions remain poorly understood.

Nematic Liquid-Crystal Colloids
Materials, 2017 This article provides a concise review of a new state of colloidal matter called nematic liquid-crystal colloids. These colloids are obtained by dispersing microparticles of different shapes in a nematic liquid crystal that acts as a solvent for the ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This article critically reviews the recent advances in the development of nanomaterial‐based inks derived from 2D nanomaterials and how the addition of 2D nanomaterials alters the rheology of different polymers for 3D printing. The review further explores the application of 3D‐printed structures in the electronics, sensor, and energy sectors.

Research Progress on Functional Properties of Polysaccharide-Based Food Colloids and Their Application in Food Processing [PDF]
Shipin KexueFood colloids refer to the common multicomponent heterogeneous dispersion systems found in foods, which can be divided into protein-based and polysaccharide-based colloids according to their components.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Characterizations of the expanse of processes parameter combinations that can be used to minimize cracking and porosity while optimizing crystallization and hardness are used to assess laser processing of four glass‐forming alloys. The set of viable alloys for laser additive manufacturing is not the same as for suction casting; some alloys are common ...

Statistical mechanics of a colloidal suspension in contact with a fluctuating membrane
, 2004 Surface effects are generally prevailing in confined colloidal systems. Here we report on dispersed nanoparticles close to a fluid membrane. Exact results regarding the static organization are derived for a dilute solution of non-adhesive colloids. It is

Colloids and polymers in random colloidal matrices: demixing under good-solvent conditions [PDF]
, 2012 We consider a simplified coarse-grained model for colloid-polymer mixtures, in which polymers are represented as monoatomic molecules interacting by means of pair potentials. We use it to study polymer-colloid segregation in the presence of a quenched matrix of colloidal hard spheres.
