The encapsulation of aqueous and organic solvents with particles used to form liquid marbles implies there are attractive interactions between the particles and those different liquids. This is often masked, however, by the impact of the droplet kinetic energy on marble formation. We investigated droplet wetting and e…

The potential of organic–inorganic liposomal cerasomes to store and release doxorubicin (DOX) is investigated. Specifically, cerasomes display sustained DOX release in serum-enriched cell culture medium but minimal drug leakage in deionized water. As revealed by a physics-based model, the medium-sensitive DOX release/…

Glass samples with the composition 2SrO·TiO2·2.75 SiO2 were polished, subsequently covered with graphite or alumina powder and finally annealed at 970 °C for 20 h in order to induce surface crystallisation. The effect of the surface treatment on the preferred crystal orientations during growth into the bulk is analyze…

This paper describes the first application of ultrafast scanning calorimetry to the process of gelation in concentrated (40 wt%) aqueous gelatin solutions. It demonstrates that the regular gelation that occurs on cooling can be outrun at sufficiently fast cooling rates (≥500 K s−1) so that the solution reaches a metas…

We study the self-assembly of symmetric star-like block copolymers (A(x))(y)(B(x))(y)C in dilute solution by using Brownian dynamics simulations. In the star-like block copolymer, incompatible A and B components are both solvophobic, and connected to the center bead C of the polymer. Therefore, this star-like block co…
