TLDR
In this article, the authors show that when two immiscible liquid drops, designated as phase-1 and -3, suspended in a third immiscibility liquid, phase-2, are brought into contact, the resulting equilibrium configuration is readily predicted from the interfacial tensions σij and spreading coefficients Si = σjk − (σij + σik).

Microencapsulation by in situ Polymerization of Amino Resins

TL;DR: By surrounding small droplets with a coating, one can obtain micrometer-size capsules (microcapsules), and combine multiple properties into a single system as discussed by the authors, which has allowed the design o...

POE/PLGA composite microspheres: formation and in vitro behavior of double walled microspheres.

TL;DR: It was found that compared to the neat POE or PLGA microspheres, distinct degradation mechanism was achieved in the double walled POE/PLGA micro Spheres system and kept more than 32% of its initial molecular weight over a period of 7 weeks.

Anisotropic microparticles created by phase separation of polymer blends confined in monodisperse emulsion drops

TL;DR: This microfluidic approach to create uniform anisotropic microparticles using phase separation of polymer blends confined in emulsion drops can be further extended to any combination of polymers and colloids to provide a variety of structural and chemical anisotropy.

Particle motions in sheared suspensions XII. Deformation and burst of fluid drops in shear and hyperbolic flow

TL;DR: In this paper, the deformation, orientation, and burst of fluid drops suspended in a liquid subjected to both hyperbolic and shear flow have been measured for a large number of fluid pairs covering a wide range of viscosity ratio p. At low deformation excellent agreement, with theoretical equations due to Taylor and Cerf was found.

Semipermeable aqueous microcapsules. I. Preparation and properties.

TL;DR: Methods have been developed for depositing thin stable semipermeable polymer membranes around aqueous microdroplets (mean diameter down to 5 μ or less) by either interfacial polymerization or interfacial coacervation.

Oil Lenses on Water and the Nature of Monomolecular Expanded Films

TL;DR: In this article, the condition for the formation of such stable lenses is that the spreading coefficient FS = γ1 − γ2 γ12 shall be negative and the magnitude of the linear tension at the lens boundary is also calculated.

Particle motions in sheared suspensions

TL;DR: In this article, the rotations executed by rigid rods, fused doublets of equal-sized spheres, and the transitory doublets formed by collision of equal sized spheres suspended in a liquid subjected to laminar shear, have been studied by making observations along the planes of shear.
