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).

Revisiting the morphology development of solvent-swollen composite polymer particles at thermodynamic equilibrium.

TL;DR: Predicted morphology obtained from calculation of minimum total interfacial free energy of the droplets using the interfacial tensions agreed well with the experimental observation.

Morphological study of polymethyl methacrylate microcapsules filled with self-healing agents

TL;DR: In this paper, the surface morphology of healing agent microcapsules was investigated using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and the theoretical equilibrium morphology of PMMA microcapsule was predicted according to spreading coefficient values of phases in emulsion systems.

Synthesis of Narrowly Size-Distributed Thermosensitive Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) Nanocapsules in Inverse Miniemulsion

TL;DR: In this article, narrowly size-distributed thermosensitive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) nanocapsules with a hydrophilic core composed of an aqueous solution of cobalt tetrafluoroborate (CoTFB) were synthesized via a one-pot polymerization of NIPAM and the cross-linking agent N,N′-methylene bis(acryamide) in inverse miniemulsion CoTFB not only worked as template and lipophobe,

Synthesis of Monodisperse Bi-Compartmentalized Amphiphilic Janus Microparticles for Tailored Assembly at the Oil–Water Interface

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that selectively patching the silica nanoparticles onto one of the bulb surfaces gives amphiphilicity to the particles that can assemble at the oil-water interface with a designated level of adhesion, thus leading to development of a highly stable Pickering emulsion system.

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.
