Improving Nanosilica Fluidization by Premixing with Geldart A and B Particles: A Detailed Region-Wise Study [PDF]
NanomaterialsUltrafine nanosilica exhibits a strong tendency to form agglomerates, with sizes often several orders of magnitude larger than the primary particles. This agglomeration severely impairs its effectiveness in fluidization and other applications requiring ...

Regionalized tissue fluidization is required for epithelial gap closure during insect gastrulation
Nature Communications, 2020 Many animal embryos pull and close an epithelial sheet around the ellipsoidal egg surface during a gastrulation process known as epiboly. The ovoidal geometry dictates that the epithelial sheet first expands and subsequently compacts.
