We investigated how different solvents' affinity with polyacrylonitrile affects the formation of a
jet that leads to stable fiber spinning. The study focused on two concentrations, one near …

Capillary-driven thinning of a liquid bridge is commonly used to measure the extensional
rheology of macromolecular solutions for assessment of material sprayability, printability …

Solution blow spinning (SBS) is a promising alternative to produce fibrous matrices for a
wide range of applications, such as packaging and biomedical devices. Polycaprolactone …

Polymer solution processability in extensional-flow-dominated operations is strongly
influenced by polymer conformation and solution phase behavior. Cosolvent addition can be …

Despite national and international regulations, plastic microbeads are still widely used in
personal care and consumer products (PCCPs). These exfoliants and rheological modifiers …

In many commercial applications, polymer–dye interactions are frequently encountered from
food to wastewater treatment, and while shear rheology has been well characterized, the …

Processing of electrode slurry, which is highly non-Newtonian fluid, is a critical step in the
mass production of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). While extensional flow plays an important …

A two-dimensional direct numerical simulation has been carried out to investigate
extensional characteristic impacts on the viscoelastic thread deformation and satellite …

In this work we study the pure elongation flow behavior of an electrorheological (ER) fluid as
a model soft-jammed system, wherein the extent of jamming is controlled by an externally …

Despite national and international regulations, plastic microbeads are still widely used in
personal care and consumer products (PCCPs) as exfoliants and rheological modifiers …
