Softness plays a key role in determining the macroscopic properties of colloidal systems,
from synthetic nanogels to biological macromolecules, from viruses to star polymers …

Nanogels and microgels are soft, deformable, and penetrable objects with an internal gel-
like structure that is swollen by the dispersing solvent. Their softness and the potential to …

Colloidal crystals have brought the promise of revolution to modern engineering, yet
commonly used fabrication technologies are still limited by the small preparation area, time …

Self-assembly of quasi-spherical colloidal particles in two-dimensional (2D) arrangements is
essential for a wide range of applications from optoelectronics to surface engineering, from …

Conspectus The confinement of colloidal particles at liquid interfaces offers many
opportunities for materials design. Adsorption is driven by a reduction of the total free energy …

This review discusses the current knowledge of interfacial and bulk interactions of
biopolymeric microgels in relation to the well-established properties of synthetic microgels …

Particles adsorbed to fluid interfaces are ubiquitous in industry, nature or life. The wide
range of properties arising from the assembly of particles at fluid interface has stimulated an …

The structural characterization of microgels at interfaces is fundamental to understand both
their 2D phase behavior and their role as stabilizers that enable emulsions to be broken on …

In this review, we cover the topic of p (NIPAM) based microgels at interfaces, revisiting
classical studies in light of the newest ones. In particular, we focus on their use as …

Abstract Architecture of a crosslinked polymeric system is a critical point with respect to their
applications. Core-shell is a modern and the most useful morphology of any system. In this …
