Synthesis of dimpled polymer particles and polymer particles with protrusions–Past, present, and future

M Lattuada - Advances in Colloid and Interface Science, 2023 - Elsevier
Since the development of emulsion polymerization techniques, polymer particles have
become the epitome of standard colloids due to the exceptional control over size, size …

Collective behavior of active molecules: Dynamic clusters, holes, and active fractalytes

S Fehlinger, B Liebchen - Physical Review Research, 2023 - APS
Recent experiments have led to active colloidal molecules, which aggregate from nonmotile
building blocks and acquire self-propulsion through their nonreciprocal interactions. Here …

Barrier-mediated predator-prey dynamics

FJ Schwarzendahl, H Löwen - Europhysics Letters, 2021 - iopscience.iop.org
The survival chance of a prey chased by a predator depends not only on their relative
speeds but importantly also on the local environment they have to face. Here, we propose a …

Impact of non-reciprocal interactions on colloidal self-assembly with tunable anisotropy

SF Navas, SHL Klapp - arXiv preprint arXiv:2404.12108, 2024 - arxiv.org
Non-reciprocal (NR) effective interactions violating Newton's third law occur in many
biological systems, but can also be engineered in synthetic, colloidal systems. Recent …

Rototaxis: localization of active motion under rotation

Y Zheng, H Löwen - Physical Review Research, 2020 - APS
The ability to navigate in complex, inhomogeneous environments is fundamental to survival
at all length scales, giving rise to the rapid development of various subfields in …

Formation of self-propelling clusters starting from randomly dispersed Brownian particles

P Chuphal, I Venugopal, S Thakur - Bulletin of Materials Science, 2020 - Springer
We present a simple chemical strategy for the formation of a self-propelling cluster via the
process of capture and assembly of passive colloids on the surface of a chemically active …

[PDF][PDF] Analysis of Caffeine-Etoricoxib Pi-Electron Stacked Complexes: a Basis for Future Parenteral Preparations

GQ de Guzman, AL Castillo, KJA Miranda… - Philippine Journal of …, 2022 - academia.edu
Etoricoxib, although exhibiting superior and selective anti-inflammatory properties, exhibits
poor aqueous solubility which precludes its formulation into parenteral preparations. This …
