Evaporation of water-in-oil microemulsion droplet Open
Emulsion fuels have the potential to reduce both particulate matter and NOx emissions and can potentially improve the efficiency of combustion engines. However, their limited stability remains a critical barrier to practical use as an alte…

Drying Drops of Colloidal Dispersions Open
Drying drops of colloidal dispersions have attracted attention from researchers since the nineteenth century. The multiscale nature of the problem involving physics at different scales, namely colloidal and interfacial phenomena as well as…

Storage and Temperature Stability of Emulsified Biodiesel–Diesel Blends Open
The scarcity of fossil fuel has led to the recent worldwide commercialization of biodiesel-blended diesel. The benefits associated with emulsion fuels have encouraged researchers to study the blended emulsified fuels in diesel engines. Rec…

Synergy between the crack pattern and substrate elasticity in colloidal deposits Open
Desiccation cracks in colloidal deposits occur to release the excess strain energy arising from the competition between the drying induced shrinkage of the deposit and its adhesion to the substrate. Here we report remarkably different morp…

Beyond Coffee Rings: Drying Drops of Colloidal Dispersions on Inclined Substrates Open
The patterns resulting from drying particle-laden sessile drops (for example, coffee rings, where the particles are concentrated more at the edge, and their complete suppression, where the particles are uniformly distributed throughout the…

Tailoring pore distribution in polymer films <i>via</i> evaporation induced phase separation Open
The work contributes to a fundamental understanding of how to regulate the microstructure of porous polymer films fabricated via evaporation induced phase separation (EIPS).

Pickering emulsions stabilized by oppositely charged colloids: Stability and pattern formation Open
A binary mixture of oppositely charged colloids can be used to stabilize water-in-oil or oil-in-water emulsions. A Monte Carlo simulation study to address the effect of charge ratio of colloids on the stability of Pickering emulsions is pr…

Stabilization of Pickering Emulsions with Oppositely Charged Latex Particles: Influence of Various Parameters and Particle Arrangement around Droplets Open
In this study we explore the fundamental aspects of Pickering emulsions stabilized by oppositely charged particles. Using oppositely charged latex particles as a model system, Pickering emulsions with good long-term stability can be obtain…
