Interfacial Shear Rheology of Mixed Polyelectrolyte−Surfactant Layers

open access: closedLangmuir, 2009
We have studied the shear rheology of mixed surface layers containing polyelectrolytes and surfactants of opposite charges. The layers containing rigid polyelectrolytes are solidlike and can even exhibit brittle behavior. More flexible polyelectrolytes lead to more viscoelastic layers and very flexible ones to purely viscous layers.

Interfacial shear rheology of highly confined glassy polymers

open access: closedSoft Matter, 2011
We present results on interfacial shear rheology measurements on Langmuir monolayers of two different polymers, poly(vinyl acetate) and poly(methyl methacrylate) as a function of surface concentration and temperature. While for the high glass transition poly(methyl methacrylate) polymer we find a systematic transition from a viscous dominated regime to

Shear Effects in Interfacial Rheology and Their Implications on Oscillating Pendant Drop Experiments

open access: closedLangmuir, 2005
Adsorbed molecules that associate or entangle with one another at the fluid interface will give rise to shearing resistance (i.e., resistance to shape change at constant area) on the continuum scale. Where these shear effects occur, familiar theoretical constructs, such as the Young-Laplace equation or the complex dilational modulus, are rendered ...

Nonlinear shear and dilatational rheology of viscoelastic interfacial layers of cellulose nanocrystals

open access: closedPhysics of Fluids, 2018
We present a nonlinear rheological investigation of model rod-like particles at the air/water interface in dilatation and shear. Cellulose nanocrystals were modified to vary their surface hydrophobicity, creating a range of surface-active particles with varying contact angle.

Interfacial shear rheology of DPPC under physiologically relevant conditions

open access: closedSoft Matter, 2013
Lipids, and phosphatidylcholines in particular, are major components in cell membranes and in human lung surfactant. Their ability to encapsulate or form stable layers suggests a significant role of the interfacial rheological properties. In the present work we focus on the surface rheological properties of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC ...

Interaction of human whole saliva and astringent dietary compounds investigated by interfacial shear rheology

open access: closedFood Hydrocolloids, 2007
Human whole saliva (HWS) is a complex physiological secretion that performs a number of essential functions such as protection of oral health, lubrication of mouth tissues, as well as predigestion of food. In addition, saliva forms the perireceptor environment of the oral cavity and, by its interactions with food and beverages, influences the ...

Combined interfacial shear rheology and microstructure visualization of asphaltenes at air-water and oil-water interfaces

open access: closedJournal of Rheology, 2017
Asphaltenes are surface-active polyaromatic molecules in crude oil that are known to deposit in pipelines or stabilize water droplets by flocculating at interfaces resulting highly viscous emulsions, leading to significant flow assurance problems. Commercial dispersants have been developed to disturb asphaltene aggregation to mitigate deposition, but ...

Limitations and Applicability of the Interfacial Shear Rheology in the Study of Monolayer Films at the Air-Water Interface

open access: closedJournal of Dispersion Science and Technology, 2013
This article studies the applicability of a new technique in determining the interfacial shear rheology properties of surface active compounds relevant to the petroleum industry. It presents the theory behind the determination of the rheological parameters and the results of tests performed on a set of petroleum related compounds (asphaltenes, tetra ...

Combined Surface Pressure−Interfacial Shear Rheology Study of the Effect of pH on the Adsorption of Proteins at the Air−Water Interface

open access: closedLangmuir, 2005
The effect of pH on the adsorption of catalase and lysozyme at the air-water interface has been studied using a combined surface pressure-interfacial shear rheology technique. The results presented show that the rate of development of interfacial phenomena increases as the pH of the subphase approaches the isoelectric point of the protein under ...

Shear and dilatational linear and nonlinear subphase controlled interfacial rheology of β-lactoglobulin fibrils and their derivatives

Journal of Rheology, 2013
This work presents a linear and nonlinear interfacial rheological characterization of viscoelastic protein adsorption layers formed by β-lactoglobulin fibrils, β-lactoglobulin peptides, and native β-lactoglobulin (called monomers) at the water–oil interface at pH 2.
