Solvent relaxation nuclear magnetic resonance has been widely used to study the
interactions of polymers and surfactants with nanoparticles, an important area of research for …

Label-free methods to obtain hydrodynamic size from diffusion measurements are desirable
in environments that contain multiple macromolecular species at a high total concentration …

We combine mechanical rheometry, diffusing wave spectroscopy (DWS), and small angle
neutron scattering (SANS) with a simulation model, the “pointer algorithm”, to obtain …

The thermodynamic properties of micellization for dodecylphosphocholine (DPC), sodium
dodecyl sulfate (SDS), and their mixtures were studied using isothermal titration calorimetry …

We review a selection of models for wormlike micelles undergoing reptation and chain
sequence rearrangement (eg reversible scission) and show that many different assumptions …

Viscoelastic surfactants (VES) were introduced to apply in hydraulic fracturing fluids as a
proppant carrier in order to replace polymers which possess high potential for formation …

Micellar incorporation of hydrophobic molecular receptors is a promising strategy to obtain
efficient nanodevices that work in water. In order to fully evaluate the potential of this …

Hypothesis Shear-banding of branched wormlike solutions is a topic of active investigation
which has not been fully elucidated. Here, we surmise that flow-induced microstructuring in …

This report reviews the progress in the field of NMR relaxation in fluids. The emphasis is on
comparatively simple liquids and solutions of physico-chemical and chemical interest, in …

Viscoelastic surfactants (VES) have been successfully applied in well stimulation treatments,
including acid-diversion and hydraulic fracturing. However, high temperature, interactions of …
