Ionomers are hydrophobic polymers that contain a small fraction of ionic groups. The ionic groups form multiplets or polar micro-domains in bulk, which confers the unique properties of crack and ...

The study of colloidal systems encompasses a wide range of phenomena associated with particles dispersed in a continuous medium. These systems, which include suspensions, emulsions and foams, exhibit ...

A research team simulated phase separation in colloidal suspensions. By treating colloid particles as undeformable highly viscous liquid droplets suspended in a solvent, they predicted the kinetics of ...

Plastic deformation of crystalline materials with isotropic particle attractions proceeds by the creation and migration of dislocations under the influence of external forces. If dislocations are ...

The versatile nano-printing platform that assembles solution-phase colloidal nanocrystals (NCs) and modifies their properties ...

The dual specific Src/Abl kinase inhibitor AZD0530 inhibits the formation and activity of human osteoclasts No significant financial relationships to disclose. This is an ASCO Meeting Abstract from ...

Researchers show that the dynamics of spontaneous phase separations forming network structures can be controlled by the slow dynamics in the networks formed. This work may lead to cheaper and more ...

Tokyo, Japan - Liquids, with their flowing dynamics, are often far from equilibrium. This makes it particularly hard to model processes in soft matter or living tissue, which contain liquids. New ...
