Complex fluids, such as polymer melts and concentrated suspensions, are foundational materials for industrial products, including high-strength plastics and optical components. The final performance ...
The configuration of proteins is critical for their biochemical behavior. Mechanical stresses that act on them can affect their behavior leading to the development of decease. The von Willebrand ...
Researchers from NITech, Japan, have recently developed a novel full-field extensional rheo-optical technique that can accurately characterize structural deformations in a complex fluid under ...
Toothpaste, face creams, hair gel, mayonnaise and ketchup are household items that most people don't think twice about, but in terms of their flow behavior, they have unusual properties. They're all ...
Extensional and shear viscosities were studied for mixtures comprising artificial saliva and okra mucilage, the latter acting as a model thick-liquid food. These experiments aimed to obtain ...
Biopharma and food businesses working with proteins now have access to better information about how a type of fluid flow commonly encountered in manufacturing processes can affect the quality of their ...
This is because the plastic is constantly expanding or stretching in those processes. Two polymers may have identical shear flow behavior, but they could exhibit different extensional flow behavior ...
