Journal ArticleDOI
Drop deformation, breakup, and coalescence with compatibilizer
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of copolymers on the breakup and coalescence of polybutadiene (PB) drops in polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) was studied using a four-roll mill flow cell.
Journal ArticleDOI
Shear thickening in low-concentration solutions of wormlike micelles. I. Direct visualization of transient behavior and phase transitions
TL;DR: In this paper, shear-induced structures (SISs) are directly visualized in transparent Couette cells using a laser light scattering technique similar to dark-field microscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Kinetics and mechanism of shear banding in an entangled micellar solution
Yuntao Hu,Alex Lips +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used particle tracking velocimetry (PTV), small angle light scattering, microscopic visualization, and flow birefringence to study the kinetics of shear banding in Couette flow.
Journal ArticleDOI
Observation of bulk phase separation and coexistence in a sheared micellar solution
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors observed a shear-flow-induced phase transition in wormlike micelle solutions which depends on whether the applied stress or the applied shear rate is held constant.
Journal ArticleDOI
Shear thickening in low-concentration solutions of wormlike micelles. II. Slip, fracture, and stability of the shear-induced phase
TL;DR: The rheology of the shear-thickened state of low-concentration solutions of wormlike micellar solutions using mechanical, optical, and velocity profile measurements is investigated in this paper.
