  2. 1. Self-assembly of magnetic particles

    Author : Hauke Carstensen; Max Wolff; Vassilios Kapaklis; Björgvin Hjörvarsson; Benjamin Yellen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; self-assembly; tunable interactions; phase transition; ferrofluid; Fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : Self-assembly is the spontaneous formation of larger structures from small building blocks. This process is driven and determined by the interactions between the constituents. READ MORE

  4. 2. Magnetically governed self-assembly of soft matter : A look into interfacial layering, crystallization and percolation

    Author : Apurve Saini; Max Wolff; Vassilios Kapaklis; Pietro Tierno; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Self-assembly; Soft matter; Colloids; Magnetic nanoparticles; Ferrofluid; Solid-liquid interface; Neutron reflectometry; Electrical sensing; Microcontact; Materiefysik; Physics of Matter;

    Abstract : Self-organisation is the key route for assembling colloidal particles into well-defined structures. Decisive for this are the interactions between the constituents, which are amongst others steric, electrostatic or magnetic. READ MORE

  5. 3. Self-assembly in Melts of Block copolymer-based Systems Featuring Supramolecular Interactions

    Author : Mehran Asad Ayoubi; Fysikalisk kemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; hierarchical self-assembly; melt; block copolymer; cationic surfactant; non-ionic surfactant; supramolecular interactions; microphase separation; Linear-b-AmphComb;

    Abstract : The subject of this thesis is experimental investigation of self-assembly in solvent-free (ionic) macromolecular systems that contain block copolymer chains as the basic constituent component in combination with low molecular weight amphiphiles. In particular, especial attention is paid to study thoroughly a new class of block copolymer-based ionic supramolecules, named as Linear-b-AmphComb, that feature novel hierarchical self-assembly characteristics.

  6. 4. Study of the flow-induced structure and anisotropy in lyotropic liquid crystals for hierarchical composites

    Author : Adrian Rodriguez Palomo; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Self-assembly; Lyotropic liquid crystals; SAXS; Hierarchical materials.; 3D printing; Rheology; Microfluidics; Birefringence microscopy;

    Abstract : Controlling the micro and nanostructure of materials is highly beneficial in order to tailor their physical properties. Extrusion-based 3D printing is a promising tool to produce hierarchical structures with controlled architecture. READ MORE

  7. 5. Hierarchical Assembly Investigations and Multiscale Characterization of Protein-based Materials : Insights from Whey Protein Nanofibrils and Recombinant Spider Silk Microspheres

    Author : Eirini Ornithopoulou; My Hedhammar; Thomas Crouzier; Christina Divne; Tim Melander Bowden; KTH; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Hierarchical Assembly; Protein-based materials; Whey Protein Nanofibrils; β-Lactoglobulin; Recombinant Spider Silk; Microspheres; Biomedical Applications; Surface Biofunctionalization; Hierarkisk montering; Proteinbaserade material; Vassleprotein nanofibriller; β-Laktoglobulin; Rekombinant spindelsilke Mikrosfärer; Biomedicinska tillämpningar; Ytbiokonjugering; Biotechnology; Bioteknologi;

    Abstract : Protein-based materials, with their unique properties of combining high strength, while maintaining elasticity, and their inherent biocompatibility, hold immense potential for various applications. In order to harness these properties, we need to understand and control how protein building blocks come together to form hierarchically structured materials. READ MORE
