Suspensions are widespread in industry and everyday life. By a suspension, materials scientists mean a liquid in which tiny, ...

However, PCM nanoemulsions often exhibit instabilities during thermal cycling and shear flow that limit their use. To investigate their combined effects, rheological nuclear magnetic resonance ...

Ulo’s Thickening Shampoo and Conditioner are naturally formulated to be gentle for regular use, even daily washing. Unlike harsher alternatives, these formulas incorporate ingredients like ...

The rheological tests were conducted using an RSX SST rheometer (Brookfield Engineering, United States of America), which operates in controlled shear rate (RPM) and controlled shear stress (torque) ...

The advantages of using high shear mixing equipment in their processes have enabled the DCS group to reduce mixing times, eliminate aeration, create stable suspensions and emulsions, achieve high ...

The friction factor rises above the Hagen–Poiseuille line, however, and Giles and Pettit attribute this to a shear-thickening of the fluid, and suggest that the viscosity of the additive ...

(Pawel Kajak/Canva) Squishy materials can also exhibit shear thickening – they become more rigid the harder you try to deform them. This is how Oobleck, a simple mixture of cornstarch and water, works ...

Through this approach, her group has developed novel functional materials such as shear-thickening materials, transparent polymeric films, implantable polymer microneedles and electrospun core-shell ...
