We describe the creation of hollow tubular hydrogels in which different zones along the length of the tube are composed of different gels. Our method to create these gels is adapted from a technique developed previously in our lab for creating solid

Polymer hydrogels synthesized by chemical cross-linking of acrylate or acrylamide monomers can absorb more than 100 times their weight in water. However, such gels are usually fragile and rupture when stretched to moderate strains (∼50%). Many stra

We present a simple method to improve the transparency and rheological properties of polystyrene/organoclay nanocomposites. Such composites are typically prepared using organophilic derivatives of commercial montmorillonite (MMT) clays that contain a

Previous work has shown that the formation of a network structure of nanoparticles within a polymer matrix can significantly reduce nanocomposite flammability and that viscoelastic properties could be utilized to predict their flammability reduction.

A systematic electrical and rheological characterization of percolation in commercial polydisperse polystyrene (PS) nanocomposites containing multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) is presented. The MWCNTs confer appreciable electrical conductivities (u

Wormlike micellar solutions based on ionic surfactants typically show an exponential decrease in viscosity upon heating. Here, we report the unusual observation of an increasing viscosity with temperature in certain cationic wormlike micellar solutio

Chromonic liquid crystals are formed by the addition of aromatic molecules such as disodium chromoglycate (cromolyn) to water. In this study, we investigate the addition of salts to the lyotropic nematic phase of cromolyn aqueous solutions. The addit

The surface tension of 1,2-dimethyl-3-N-hexadecyl imidazolium tetrafluoroborate (Im BF 4) as a function of concentration has been measured. Between 10 −5 and 4 × 10 −4 mol/L, the surface tension decreases with increasing imidazolium concentratio

The thermal and flammability properties of polyamide 6/clay (2 and 5% by mass fraction) nanocomposites were measured to determine their flame retardant (FR) performance. The gasification process of the nanocomposite samples at an external radiant flu

When aqueous solutions containing wormlike micelles (worms) are sheared, the micellar chains tend to align with the flow, which in turn leads to flow-birefringence. When shear is stopped, the worms rapidly revert to an isotropic state in typical samp
