Depletion gels from dense soft colloids: Rheology and thermoreversible melting
Truzzolillo, Domenico; Vlassopoulos, Dimitris; Munam, Abdul; Gauthier, Mario (American Institute of Physics, 2014-08-01)Upon addition of small nonadsorbing linear polymers, colloidal glasses composed of large hard spheres melt and eventually revitrify into the so-called attractive glass regime. We show that, when replacing the hard spheres ... -
Glassy States in Asymmetric Mixtures of Soft and Hard Colloids
Truzzolillo, Domenico; Marzi, Daniela; Marakis, John; Capone, Barbara; Camargo, Manuel; Munam, Abdul; Moingeon, Firmin; Gauthier, Mario; Likos, Christos N.; Vlassopoulos, Dimitris (APS Physics, 2013-11-14)By employing rheological experiments, mode coupling theory, and computer simulations based on realistic coarse-grained models, we investigate the effects of small, hard colloids on the glassy states formed by large, soft ...
