Fuel-Mediated Transient Clustering of Colloidal Building Blocks
Bas G. P. van Ravensteijn,Wouter E. Hendriksen,Rienk Eelkema,Jan H. van Esch,Willem K. Kegel +4 more
TL;DR: The fuel-mediated assembly of colloidal building blocks presented here opens new avenues to the complex landscape of nonequilibrium colloidal structures, guided by biological design principles.
Journal ArticleDOI
General Route toward Chemically Anisotropic Colloids
TL;DR: In this paper, a versatile emulsion-based synthesis for the preparation of nanometer-sized dumbbell-shaped particles that contain two chemically different patches was reported, one consisting of solely polystyrene and is therefore chemically inert toward most chemical reactions and the other patch contains reactive surface chlorine groups.
Journal ArticleDOI
Out-of-Equilibrium Colloidal Assembly Driven by Chemical Reaction Networks.
TL;DR: Recent studies are discussed demonstrating that dissipative assembly is not limited to the molecular world but can also be translated to building blocks of colloidal dimensions, and how marrying nonequilibrium self-assembly with the functional properties associated with colloidal building blocks presents a promising route for the development of next-generation materials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tuning particle geometry of chemically anisotropic dumbbell-shaped colloids.
TL;DR: The geometry of the resulting chemically anisotropic dumbbells can be systematically tuned by a number of experimental parameters including the volume of styrene by which the seeds are swollen, the cross-link density of the chlorinated seeds and chemical composition/thickness of thechlorinated coating deposited on the seed particles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Triple Function Lubricant Additives Based on Organic–Inorganic Hybrid Star Polymers: Friction Reduction, Wear Protection, and Viscosity Modification
Bas G. P. van Ravensteijn,Raghida Bou Zerdan,Dongjin Seo,Nicholas Cadirov,Takumi Watanabe,Jeffrey A. Gerbec,Craig J. Hawker,Jacob N. Israelachvili,Matthew E. Helgeson +8 more
TL;DR: Although outperformed by linear polymers for bulk viscosity improvement, the (hybrid) star polymers successfully combine the three distinct lubricant additive functions: friction reduction, wear protection, and bulk visCosity improvement-in a single polymeric structure.
