Dynamics of the formation of a hydrogel by a pathogenic amyloid peptide: islet amyloid polypeptide [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Many chronic degenerative diseases result from aggregation of misfolded polypeptides to form amyloids. Many amyloidogenic polypeptides are surfactants and their assembly can be catalysed by hydrophobic-hydrophilic interfaces (an air-water interface in ...

Buffalo whey proteins performance at the oil/water interface: rheology characterization of the interfacial films

open access: yesRevista Científica, 2023
Whey proteins can form thin layers at the interface of non-miscible liquids like oil drops and water by emulsifying. The interfacial activity and the rheology of the interfacial films constitute a crucial aspect in assessing ingredients’ ability to form

The buckling instability of aggregating red blood cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Plasma proteins such as fibrinogen induce the aggregation of red blood cells (RBC) into rouleaux, which are responsible for the pronounced shear thinning behavior of blood, control the erythro- cyte sedimentation rate (ESR) a common hematological test ...

Particle and Particle-Surfactant Mixtures at Fluid Interfaces: Assembly, Morphology, and Rheological Description

open access: yesAdvances in Condensed Matter Physics, 2015
We report here a review of particle-laden interfaces. We discuss the importance of the particle’s wettability, accounted for by the definition of a contact angle, on the attachment of particles to the fluid interface and how the contact angle is strongly

Non-Amontons behavior of friction in single contacts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We report on the frictional properties of a single contact between a glassy polymer lens and a flat silica substrate covered either by a disordered or by a self-assembled alkylsilane monolayer.

Alginate-Chitosan Microgel Particles, Water–Oil Interfacial Layers, and Emulsion Stabilization

open access: yesColloids and Interfaces, 2023
In this work, alginate-chitosan microgel particles were formed at different pH levels with the aim of using them as viscoelastic interfacial layers, which confer emulsion stability to food systems.

Particles adsorbed at various non-aqueous liquid-liquid interfaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Particles adsorbed at liquid interfaces are commonly used to stabilise water-oil Pickering emulsions and water-air foams. The fundamental understanding of the physics of particles adsorbed at water-air and water-oil interfaces is improving significantly ...

Bridging Tribology and Microrheology of Thin Films

open access: yesApplied Rheology, 2010
An enhanced version of the flexure-based microgap rheometer (FMR) is described which enables rheological measurements in steady state shearing flows of bulk fluid samples of PDMS with an absolute gap separation between the shearing surfaces of 100 nm ...

Self-healing slip pulses and the friction of gelatin gels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
We present an extensive experimental study and scaling analysis of friction of gelatin gels on glass. At low driving velocities, sliding occurs via propagation of periodic self-healing slip pulses whose velocity is limited by collective diffusion of the ...

USING THE DILATATIONAL RHEOLOGY METHOD FOR ANALYSIS OF NANOSIZED SYSTEMS

open access: yesФизико-химические аспекты изучения кластеров, наноструктур и наноматериалов, 2019
The regularities of the formation of interfacial layers of nanosized natural polyelectrolytes based on humic substances and their complexes with cationic surfactants are investigated.
