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).

Preparation of Polymer/Poly(ionic liquid) Composite Particles by Seeded Dispersion Polymerization

TL;DR: Transmission electron microscopy studies of ultrathin cross sections of the PMMA/PIL particles revealed that the obtained particles had a sea-island structure consisting of PIL domains, consistent with the theoretical considerations based on the spreading coefficients calculated from the interfacial tensions.

Polyanhydride microsphere formulation by solvent extraction

TL;DR: A novel process based on solvent extraction was developed to produce drug-loaded polyanhydride microspheres for controlled-release applications that were capable of releasing various dyes for prolonged periods of time.

Inkjet printing and release of monodisperse liquid crystal droplets from solid surfaces.

TL;DR: This work presents a two-step method to generate monodisperse LC droplets in aqueous solutions for sensing applications, and exploits inkjet printing to dispense uniformLC droplets on a solid surface.

Preparation and Characterization of Silicone Liquid Core/Polymer Shell Microcapsules via Internal Phase Separation

TL;DR: In this paper, a silicone liquid core surrounded by a polymeric shell was synthesized through a controlled phase separation, and the morphology of the PMMA microcapsules was investigated by ATR-FTIR and by optical microscopy.

Reactive compatibilization of poly(lactic acid)/polystyrene blends and its application to preparation of hierarchically porous poly(lactic acid)

TL;DR: In this article, a hierarchical porous poly(lactic acid) (PLA) with bimodal pore size distribution was derived from reactively compatibilized ternary immiscible polymer blends.

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.
