STABILIZING LIQUID DROPS OF ARBITRARY SHAPE BY THE INTERFACIAL JAMMING OF NANOPARTICLES |
摘要 |
A stabilized assembly including a first liquid phase of non-spherical droplets in a second liquid phase, wherein the second liquid phase is immiscible with the first phase, and nanoparticle surfactants assembled at an interface of the non-spherical droplets and the second phase is disclosed. The nanoparticle surfactants include nanoparticles and end-functionalized polymers that can interact through ligand type interactions, and the first phase is stabilized by a disordered, jammed layer of nanoparticle surfactants. A method of preparing a stabilized assembly is also disclosed. |

1. A stabilized assembly comprising,
a first liquid phase comprising non-spherical droplets dispersed in a second liquid phase, wherein the second liquid phase is immiscible with the first phase; and nanoparticle surfactants assembled at an interface of the non-spherical droplets and the second phase; wherein the nanoparticle surfactants comprise nanoparticles and end-functionalized polymers that can interact through ligand type interactions; and wherein the first liquid phase is stabilized by a disordered, jammed layer of nanoparticle surfactants. |
