Oil-in-oil emulsions stabilised solely by solid particles [PDF]
, 2015 A brief review of the stabilisation of emulsions of two immiscible oils is given. We then describe the use of fumed silica particles coated with either hydrocarbon or fluorocarbon groups in acting as sole stabilisers of emulsions of various vegetable ...

Adhesion of fluid infused silicone elastomer to glass [PDF]
Soft Matter, 2022,18, 7579-7592, 2022 Elastomers swollen with non-polar fluids show potential as anti-adhesive materials. We study the effect of oil fraction and contact time on the adhesion between swollen spherical probes of PDMS (polydimethylsiloxane) and flat glass surfaces. The PDMS probes are swollen with pre-determined amount of 10 cSt silicone oil to span the range where the PDMS ...

Capillary-driven indentation of a microparticle into a soft, oil-coated substrate [PDF]
Soft Matter, 2020, 16, 5812, 2020 Small scale contact between a soft, liquid-coated layer and a stiff surface is common in many situations, from synovial fluid on articular cartilage to adhesives in humid environments. Moreover, many model studies on soft adhesive contacts are conducted with soft silicone elastomers, which possess uncrosslinked liquid molecules (i.e. silicone oil) when

Migration of Silicone Oil into the Orbit and Eyelid as a Cyst
Case Reports in Ophthalmology, 2020 A 7-year-old female presented with left upper eyelid swelling following pars plana deep vitrectomy and silicone oil injection 1 year before admission. The left upper eyelid had mechanical ptosis and on palpation there was a lobulated mobile mass in the ...

Mass transfer coefficients of styrene into water/silicone oil mixtures: New interpretation using the "equivalent absorption capacity" concept. [PDF]
, 2014 International audienceThe physical absorption of styrene into water/silicone oil systems at a constant flow rate for mixtures of different compositions (silicone oil volume fraction ϕ = 0%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5%, 6%, 8%, and 10%) was investigated in ...

F4H5: A novel substance for the removal of silicone oil from intraocular lenses [PDF]
, 2010 Aim: Adherent silicone oil on intraocular lenses (IOLs) following retinal detachment surgery induces large and irregular refractive errors and multiple images, and gives rise to glare, distorted and often poor vision.
