Precise, tunable emulsions and foams produced in microfluidic geometries have found wide
application in biochemical analysis and materials synthesis and characterization. Superb …

Complex fluid-fluid interfaces play an important role in a variety of application domains, from
emulsion and foam stability, to thin films in biomedical applications, to coating flow …

Surfactants–molecules and particles that preferentially adsorb to fluid interfaces–play a
ubiquitous role in the fluids of industry, of nature and of life. Since most surfactants cannot be …

Complex fluid-fluid interfaces are common to living systems, foods, personal products, and
the environment. They occur wherever surface-active molecules and particles collect at fluid …

Surfactants are employed in microfluidic systems not just for drop stabilisation, but also to
study local phenomena in industrial processes. On the scale of a single drop, these include …

A study is presented of emulsification by silica nanoparticles with poly (2-(dimethylamino)
ethyl methacrylate) brushes grafted from their surfaces (SiO2− PDMAEMA) by atom-transfer …

Fluid–fluid interfaces, laden with polymers, particles or other surface-active moieties, often
show a rheologically complex response to deformations, in particular when strong lateral …

Surfactant mass transport towards an interface plays a critical role during formation of
emulsions, foams and in industrial processes where two immiscible phases coexist. The …

Liquid–liquid emulsion systems are usually stabilized by additives, known as surfactants,
which can be observed in various environments and applications such as oily bilgewater …

Jet formation and break-up in inkjet printing has been studied and understood mainly for
pure liquids. Questions remain as to the role of surfactants on the inkjet printing process at …
