The transition from a liquid to a glass in colloidal suspensions of particles interacting through a hard core plus an attractive square-well potential is studied within the rnode-coupling-theory framework. When the width of the attractive potential is much ...
Conductometry and potentiometry have been employed to examine the influence of macromol. parameters and chem. structure on the electrochem. behavior of flexible polyelectrolytes with finite chain length in the concn. range 10-6 < cp < 10-2 monomol.l-1. For ...
The capability of atomic-force microscopy (AFM) to localize both individual adsorbates and aggregates of adsorbed molecules was demonstrated a few years ago. More recently submonolayers of fullerene molecules deposited on a gold Substrate have been imaged ...
Previous theoretical simulation and experimental studies have indicated that particles with a short-ranged attraction exhibit a range of dynamical arrest phenomena. These include very pronounced reentrance in the dynamical arrest curve, a logarithmic singu ...
A general description of the electrolytic cond. behavior of highly charged strong polyelectrolytes in dil. and semidilute aq. solns. is presented. For the first time this model considers the effects of the molar mass, charge d. (for charge distances less t ...
Extensive molecular dynamics simulation studies of particles interacting via a short-ranged attractive square-well potential arc reported. The calculated loci of constant diffusion coefficient D in the temperature-packing fraction plane show a reentrant be ...
Within the framework of the mode-coupling theory of super-cooled liquids, we investigate new phenomena in colloidal systems on approach to their glass transitions. When the inter-particle potential contains an attractive part, besides the usual repulsive h ...
BACKGROUND: We present the synthesis, characterization and initial structure-function analysis of a new class of bioactive agent that allows the application of techniques from colloid science to biological surfaces. Stable colloidal suspensions can be gene ...
The exo- and endo-irontricarbonyl complexes of 5,6-dimethylidene-2-exo-norbornyl alcohols 10x, 10n, p-bromobenzenesulfonates 11x, 11n, acetate 12x and of the 2,3-dimethylidene-7-anti-norbornyl alcohols 17x, 17n, p-bromobenzenesulfonates 19x, 19n and acetat ...
