A comprehensive review is presented of the physical behavior of yield stress materials in
soft condensed matter, which encompasses a broad range of materials from colloidal …

As one increases the concentration of a colloidal suspension, the system exhibits a dramatic
increase in viscosity. Beyond a certain concentration, the system is said to be a colloidal …

We attempt a classification of different colloidal gels based on colloid–colloid interactions.
We discriminate primarily between non-equilibrium and equilibrium routes to gelation, the …

β-Hairpin peptide-based hydrogels are a class of injectable hydrogel solids with significant
potential use in injectable therapies. β-hairpin peptide hydrogels can be injected as …

Steady and oscillatory rheology was utilized to study the mechanical response of colloidal
glasses and gels with particular emphasis in their yielding behaviour. We used a …

Jamming is a ubiquitous phenomenon that appears in many soft matter systems, including
granular materials, foams, colloidal suspensions, emulsions, polymers, and cells—when …

Cellulosic sources, such as lignocellulose-rich biomass, can be mechanically or acid
degraded to produce inclusions called cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs). They have several …

We report a number of experiments, mainly rheological measurements, examining the
yielding behavior of colloidal glasses with hard-sphere interaction plus a short-range …

The effects of particle softness and the role of the outer shell mechanics on the linear
viscoelasticity and yielding behaviour of colloidal glasses are critically assessed using three …

Abstract The network of Cellulose Nanocrystal (CNC) suspension is explored below and
above the critical micelle concentration (CMC), in the presence of cetyltrimethylammonium …
