Creation of Faceted Polyhedral Microgels from Compressed Emulsions

Compressed monodisperse emulsions in confined space exhibit highly ordered structures. The influence of the volume fraction and the confinement geometry on the organized structures is investigated and the mechanism by which structural transition occurs is ...

The Molecular Mechanism of Nanodroplet Stability

Sylvie Roke, Yixing Chen, Halil Ibrahim Okur, David Mark Wilkins, Evangelia Zdrali

Mixtures of nano- and microscopic oil droplets in water have recently been rediscovered as miniature reaction vessels in microfluidic environments and are important constituents of many environmental systems, food, personal care, and medical products. The ...

Oxidative stability and microstructure of 5% fish-oil-enriched granola bars added natural antioxidants derived from brown alga Fucus vesiculosus

Louise Helene Soegaard Jensen

The aims of this study were to (i) investigate the ability of Icelandic brown algae Fucus vesiculosus extracts to inhibit lipid oxidation in granola bars fortified with fish oil-in-water emulsion; (ii) investigate whether addition of the seaweed extracts a ...

High-Throughput Step Emulsification for the Production of Functional Materials Using a Glass Microfluidic Device

Esther Amstad

High-volume production of monodisperse droplets is of importance for industrial applications due to increased emulsion stability, precise control over droplet volumes, and the formation of periodic arranged structures. So far, parallelized microfluidic dev ...

Influence of Fluorinated Surfactant Composition on the Stability of Emulsion Drops

Esther Amstad, Gianluca Nicolas Etienne, Michael David Kessler

Aqueous drops of a well-defined size are often used as small containers for conducting chemical and biochemical reactions, cell assays and as templates to produce microparticles. To prevent their coalescence, they must be stabilized, for example, using sur ...

Freezing effects of oil-in-water emulsions studied by sum-frequency scattering spectroscopy

Sylvie Roke, Nikolay Smolentsev

Temperature-dependent sum-frequency scattering spectroscopy is used to study the properties of hexadecane and dodecane oil droplets in water. The sum-frequency scattering spectra contain vibrational bands that correspond to the symmetric and antisymmetric ...

Computer modelling of the surface tension of the gas-liquid and liquid-liquid interface

Dominic John Tildesley

This review presents the state of the art in molecular simulations of interfacial systems and of the calculation of the surface tension from the underlying intermolecular potential. We provide a short account of different methodological factors (size-effec ...

Validating formulas for the prediction of ascent speed and mass transfer coefficient for liquid oil droplets and gas bubbles under pressure

Jeremy Samuel Arey, Jonas Gros

Several different formulas exist to predict the ascent speed of gas bubbles and oil droplets released in deep waters. Similarly, different formulas are also available to predict the mass transfer coefficient of compounds dissolving into water during ascent ...

Ultrathin Shell Double Emulsion Templated Giant Unilamellar Lipid Vesicles with Controlled Microdomain Formation

Esther Amstad

A microfluidic approach is reported for the high-throughput, continuous production of giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) using water-in-oil-in-water double emulsion drops as templates. Importantly, these emulsion drops have ultrathin shells; this minimizes ...
