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).

Polymer-based nanocapsules for drug delivery

TL;DR: A comparative analysis is given of the size, zeta-potential, dispersion pH, shell thickness, encapsulation efficiency, active substance release, stability and in vivo and in vitro pharmacological performances, which allows establishing criteria for selecting a method for preparation of nanocapsules according to its advantages, limitations and behaviours as a drug carrier.

Preparation of polymeric nanocapsules by miniemulsion polymerization.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of different monomers and monomer mixtures, of the type and amount of surfactant, and of the hydrophobe on the morphological characteristics of the polymer/oil composite particle, using dynamic light scattering, scanning and transmission electron microscopies, and atomic force microscopy.

The mechanism of partial coalescence of liquid drops at liquid/liquid interfaces☆

TL;DR: The mechanism of formation of a secondary drop from the coalescence of a liquid drop (phase 1) at a liquid/liquid interface was investigated by means of high-speed photographs as discussed by the authors.

Particle motions in sheared suspensions

TL;DR: The effects of diffusion out of and into drops undergoing equatorial collision in laminar shear flow were studied in this paper, where diffusion into undeformed drops enhanced coalescence while diffusion from the drops inhibited it.
Journal ArticleDOI

Particle motions in sheared suspensions. XIV. Coalescence of liquid drops in electric and shear fields

TL;DR: The effects of electric fields and electric charges on the coalescence of collision doublets of fluid spheres suspended in a liquid undergoing laminar shear flow were studied using a technique which made it possible to create reproducible doublets as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Particle motions in sheared suspensions: VIII. Singlets and doublets of fluid spheres

TL;DR: The spin of single liquid spheres of carbon tetrachloride and of cyclohexanol phthalate suspended in corn syrup was measured over a range of laminar shear rates and was found to be practically identical with the value for rigid spheres.
