Theoretical Investigation on Dynamics of Photopolymerization-Induced Phase Separation and Morphology Development in Nematic Liquid Crystal/Polymer Mixtures

Nanoscale heterogeneous phase separation kinetics in binary mixtures: Multistage dynamics

In order to find a measure of the dynamical features of phase separation kinetics during spinodal decomposition of a liquid binary mixture (like water and cyclohexane , water and 2,6 lutidiene or methanol and cyclohexane), we study both the initial fast exponential-like growth (the Cahn-Hilliard regime) and the subsequent cross-over to a much slower, non-exponential long time growth (the so-cal...

The effect of polar copolymers in protein absorption on contact lenses on 2-Hydroxyethyl methacrylate(HEMA)

For the purpose of increasing the permeability to oxygen and equilibrium water content in contact lenses, polar copolymers with nonionic monomers such as 2-hydroxyethle methacrylate(HEMA) Is used. By adding the polar monomers to (HEMA), the permeability to oxygen and equilibrium with water content is increased and also the absorption of proteins on lens surface is changed. In this research, the...

Depletion-induced phase separation in colloid-polymer mixtures.

Phase separation can be induced in a colloidal dispersion by adding non-adsorbing polymers. Depletion of polymer around the colloidal particles induces an effective attraction, leading to demixing at sufficient polymer concentration. This communication reviews theoretical and experimental work carried out on the polymer-mediated attraction between spherical colloids and the resulting phase sepa...
