The influence of hyperbranched polymer grafted polypropylene (PP-HBP) on the morphology of polypropylene (PP)/polyamide 6 (PA6) blends has been investigated. The final morphology was strongly influenced by the PP-HBP compatibilizer concentration. At low co ...
The dynamics of large fractal colloid aggregates, which were described by a combination of translational and rotational diffusion and internal elastic fluctuations, were investigated. Light scattering was used to measure dynamics of colloidal aggregates fo ...
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 ...
We investigate the phase behavior of surface-functionalized silica colloids at both the molecular and macroscopic levels. This investigation allows us to relate collective properties such as aggregation, gelation, and aging directly to molecular interfacia ...
A model showing the importance of the parameters characterizing ion transport through geometrically defined nanoslits filled with electrolyte is presented. A conductance plateau sin log-log scaled at low salt concentrations in the nanometer-sized apertures ...
The aging dynamics in a model for dense simple liquids, in which particles interact through a hard-core repulsion complemented by a short-ranged attractive potential, of the kind found in colloidal suspensions, was studied. Kinetically arrested disordered ...
Calcium phosphate transfection is a widely used method to produce recombinant proteins in mammalian cells. However, the mechanisms involved in plasmid DNA transfer to the nucleus of the transfected cells remain poorly understood and result in great variati ...
We discuss the ideal glass transition for two types of potential model of attractive colloidal systems, i.e. the square-well system and the Yukawa hard-sphere fluid. We use the framework of the ideal mode-coupling theory and we mostly focus our attention o ...
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 ...
We studied systematically aqueous suspensions of amorphous well-characterized silica particles by potentiometric titration, electrophoretic mobility, and time-resolved light scattering. Their charging behavior and aggregation rate constants were measured a ...
