Natural colloids are defined as macromolecules and nanoparticles with sizes ranging between 1 nm and 1 µm. Colloidal pool is complex "ill-defined" mixture of humic substances, exopolymeric substances (EPS), inorganic oxides, clays, etc. Aquatic colloids ha ...
We investigate the structural, dynamical, and rheological properties of colloid-polymer mixtures in a volume fraction range of φ=0.15-0.35. Our systems are density-matched, residual charges are screened, and the polymer-colloid size ratio is ∼0.37. For the ...
With an annual worldwide production well in excess of 100 million metric tons, synthetic polymers constitute a significant part of the modern chemical process industry. Polymer reactors - operated in continuous, batch, or semibatch mode - are therefore imp ...
We investigated the condensation of calf thymus DNA by amphiphilic polystyrenem-b-poly(l-lysine)n block copolymers ( PS m -b- PLys n , m, n = degree of polymerization), using small-angle X-ray scattering, polarized optical microscopy and laser scanning con ...
The interactions and structural formation of polyelectrolytes in solution and environmental stimuli-responsive water-soluble polymers are subjects of intense academic research, development, and application. An increasing number of novel materials are being ...
A series of acrylamide/dimethylaminoethylacrylate methyl chloride copolymers (AM-co-DMAEA) was evaluated as flocculants for model Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (FCC) in distilled water. These cationic polyelectrolytes (PEL) differed by their AM/DMAEA rati ...
In this study, the application of reaction calorimetry, an efficient tool to obtain kinetic and safety data, is presented on the free radical dispersion polymn. of MMA in scCO2. The effect of three major parameters with respect to the reaction evolution ar ...
The invention relates to superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles for use in sutureless thermal mediated tissue fusion. The nanoparticles are dispersed in a biocompatible solder material and heated by application of an alternating electromagnetic field. ...
Extracellular polymeric substances (EPSs) excreted by the bacterium Sinorhizobium meliloti and associated Ca, Cd and Pb were characterised by asymmetrical flow field-flow fractionation coupled with UV spectrophotometry and inductively coupled plasma mass s ...
We study the jamming of bead assemblies placed in a cylindrical container whose bottom is pierced with a circular hole. Their jamming behavior is quantified here by the mean critical diameter, that is the diameter of the hole for which the jamming probabil ...
