Hydrophilic polymers are a major class of polymers in polymer science. They are found in
broad range of applications from superabsorbers to drug-delivery. In recent years, a plethora …

Structured liquids are emerging functional soft materials that combine liquid flowability with
solid-like structural stability and spatial organization. Here, we delve into the chemistry and …

Phase separation is a universal physical transition process whereby a homogeneous
mixture splits into two distinct compartments that are driven by the component activity …

Non‐equilibrium multiphase systems are formed by mixing two immiscible nanoparticle
dispersions, leading to bicontinuous emulsions that template cryogels with interconnected …

The oil fraction will affect the aggregation behavior and structural strength of emulsion gels.
In this study, the effect of the camellia oil (CO) fraction on the properties of emulsion gels …

The growth of aerobic microbes at air–water interfaces typically leads to biofilm formation.
Herein, a fermentative alternative that relies on oil–water interfaces to support bacterial …

Nanocellulose is not only a renewable material but also brings functions that are opening
new technological opportunities. Here we discuss a special subset of this material, in its …

We report the first numerical prediction of a “spin microemulsion”—a phase with undulating
spin domains resembling classical bicontinuous oil-water-surfactant emulsions—in two …

The integration of responsive materials with 3D printing can lead to fabrication of functional
smart 4D structures for use in health, biofabrication, and biosensing. Here, we utilized an all …

Conspectus Cellulose is widely distributed in nature and imparts structural integrity and
mechanical support to the cell walls of plants, algae, and some bacteria. It has gained …
