Mixing bubbles and drops to make foamed emulsions

A Salonen - Current Opinion in Colloid & Interface Science, 2020 - Elsevier
Foamed emulsions are mixtures of oil, water and gas. Bubbles are surrounded by a
continuous phase made of oil and water. The numerous interfaces can be stabilised using a …

Oil-coated bubbles in particle suspensions, capillary foams, and related opportunities in colloidal multiphase systems

SH Behrens - Current Opinion in Colloid & Interface Science, 2020 - Elsevier
The interaction of solid particles with fluid interfaces in colloidal multiphase systems can

Viscoelastic coarsening of quasi-2D foam

C Guidolin, J Mac Intyre, E Rio, A Puisto… - Nature …, 2023 - nature.com
Foams are unstable jammed materials. They evolve over timescales comparable to their
“time of use", which makes the study of their destabilisation mechanisms crucial for …

The role of continuous phase rheology on the stabilization of edible foams: A review

Z Briceño-Ahumada, A Mikhailovskaya, JA Staton - Physics of Fluids, 2022 - pubs.aip.org
Foams play an essential role in food. They contribute to the texture, aroma, and mouthfeel of
a product; potentially reduce calories; and visually inspire the consumer. Understanding …

Relation between oxidation kinetics and reactant transport in an aqueous foam

P Trinh, A Mikhailovskaya, G Lefèvre… - Journal of Colloid and …, 2023 - Elsevier
Hypothesis Aqueous foams are expected to constitute exquisite particularly suitable reactive
medium for the oxidation of metals, since the reactant H+ can be supplied through the …

Stiffening colloidal gels by solid inclusions

C Ferreiro-Córdova, G Foffi, O Pitois, C Guidolin… - Soft Matter, 2022 - pubs.rsc.org
The elastic properties of a soft matter material can be greatly altered by the presence of solid
inclusions whose microscopic properties, such as their size and interactions, can have a …

One-step generation and characterisation of aerated emulsions using laser diffraction

C Guidolin, N Jiang, D Langevin, A Salonen - Colloids and Surfaces A …, 2022 - Elsevier
Dispersions of bubbles and drops in water are widely encountered in many fields, from food
industry to cosmetics and oil recovery. Their generation typically requires two steps: either …

Motion of small bubbles and drops in viscoelastic fluids

D Langevin - Current Opinion in Colloid & Interface Science, 2022 - Elsevier
Viscoelastic materials containing bubbles or drops are encountered in numerous application
fields and are presently the object of much interest. The motion of bubbles and drops in …

Monitoring gypsum plaster setting in a foam through Raman spectroscopy

J Trosseille, G Panczer, C Martinet, M Le Merrer - Physical Review Applied, 2022 - APS
We use Raman spectroscopy to probe in situ the hydration reaction of a foamed mineral
binder, here gypsum plaster. We show the strong effect of the mixing process used for …
