Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many of the distinctive and useful phenomena of soft matter come from its interaction with interfaces. Examples are the peeling of a strip of adhesive tape, the coating of a surface, the curling of a fiber via capillary forces, or the collapse of a porous sponge. These interfacial phenomena are distinct from the intrinsic behavior of a soft material like a gel or a microemulsion. Yet many forms of interfacial phenomena can be understood via common principles valid for many forms of soft matter. Our goal in organizing this school was to give students a grasp of these common principles and their many ramifications and possibilities. The Les Houches Summer School comprised over fifty 90-minute lectures over four weeks. Four four-lecture courses by Howard Stone, Michael Cates, David Nelson and L. Mahadevan served as an anchor for the program. A number of shorter courses and seminars rounded out the school. This volume collects the lecture notes of the school.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This doctoral thesis presents the study of di erent dynamic processes occurring at the droplet interface, and the methods implemented for their study. The objective of this work is to unravel what are the important properties that have an impact on the mechanical behavior of the interfacial layers. We use the hydrodynamically forced droplet deformation in a microfluidic channel to probe the mechanical properties of the interface. This method is applied to three di erent cases. First we follow the evolution of an interface deformation with time to study the dynamics of surfactant adsorption ...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this work, I studied the impact of surfactants on interfacial phenomena out of equilibrium. I investigated three different effects, (1) the stabilisation of interfaces upon surfactant adsorption (adsorption kinetics), (2) the interaction of the surfactant with the interior of the droplet (surfactant synthesis) and (3) the interaction of the surfactant with the exterior of the droplet (interfacial flows). Adsorption kinetics of surfactants are of relevance for the stabilisation of interfaces against coalescence and transport. I investigated the adsorption kinetics of the acidic surfactant ...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers the science of interfaces between an aqueous phase and a solid, another liquid or a gaseous phase, starting from the basic physical chemistry all the way to state-of-the-art research developments. Both experimental and theoretical methods are treated thanks to the contributions of a distinguished list of authors who are all active researchers in their respective fields. The properties of these interfaces are crucial for a wide variety of processes, products and biological systems and functions, such as the formulation of personal care and food products, paints and coatings, microfluidic and lab-on-a-chip applications, cell membranes, and lung surfactants. Accordingly, research and expertise on the subject are spread over a broad range of academic disciplines and industrial laboratories. This book brings together knowledge from these different places with the aim of fostering education, collaborations and research progress.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dynamics of Soft Matter: Neutron Applications provides an overview of neutron scattering techniques that measure temporal and spatial correlations simultaneously, at the microscopic and/or mesoscopic scale. These techniques offer answers to new questions arising at the interface of physics, chemistry, and biology. Knowledge of the dynamics at these levels is crucial to understanding the soft matter field, which includes colloids, polymers, membranes, biological macromolecules, foams, emulsions towards biological & biomimetic systems, and phenomena involving wetting, friction, adhesion, or microfluidics. Emphasizing the complementarities of scattering techniques with other spectroscopic ones, this volume also highlights the potential gain in combining techniques such as rheology, NMR, light scattering, dielectric spectroscopy, as well as synchrotron radiation experiments. Key areas covered include polymer science, biological materials, complex fluids and surface science.

Book excerpt: This thesis focuses on interactions between liquids and elastic solids. We first revisit the snap-through instability from an elastocapillary point of view, showing that capillary forces are able to counterbalance gravity by inducing snap-through with a droplet deposited below a downward buckled elastic strip clamped at both ends. Equilibrium, stability, and dynamics of drop-strip systems are investigated, demonstrating the influence of droplet size and droplet position along the buckled strip, and showing that capillarity is driving the system toward instability but elasticity is ruling the subsequent dynamics. Spin-off versions of the experiment are also designed, including a humidity-controlled mechanical switch and upscaled experiments using soap bubbles.We then focus on interactions between silicone elastomers and aqueous droplets to understand the mechanisms underlying an unexpected two-regime droplet dynamics observed on vertical silicone elastomer plates. After demonstrating that this two-regime dynamics is due to the presence of uncrosslinked oligomers in the elastomer, we show that the speed transition coincides with a surface tension transition. A quantitative study of the droplets speeds in the two regimes is performed, and the timescale needed for uncrosslinked oligomers to cover the water-air interface is investigated both for sessile and moving droplets. We eventually show that uncrosslinked chains are extracted from the elastomer at the water - air - silicone elastomer triple line, and demonstrate that extraction occurs in various setups such as partially immersed silicone elastomer plates or air bubbles sliding up PDMS planes immersed in a water bath.

This book was released on 2006-01-11 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume comprises the proceedings of a NATO Advanced Study Institute held at Geilo, Norway, 24 March - 3 April 2003, the seventeenth ASI in a series held every two years since 1971. The objective of this ASI was to identify and discuss areas where synergism between modern physics, soft condensed matter and biology might be most fruitful. The main pedagogical approach was to have lecturers focussing on basic understanding of important aspects of the relative role of the various interaction- electrostatic, hydrophobic, steric, conformational, van der Waals etc. Soft condensed matter and the connection between physics and biology have been the themes of several earlier Geilo Schools. A return to these subjects thus allowed a fresh look and a possibility for defining new directions for research. Examples of soft materials, which were discussed at this ASI, included colloidal dispersions, gels, biopolymers and charged polymer solutions, polyelectrolytes, protein/membrane complexes, nucleic acids and their complexes. Indeed, most forms of condensed matter are soft and these substances are composed of aggregates and macromolecules, with interactions that are too weak and complex to form crystals spontaneously. A characteristic feature is that small external forces, slight perturbations in temperature, pressure or concentration, can all be enough to induce significant structural changes. Thermal fluctuations are almost by definition strong in soft materials and entropy is a predominant determinant of structure, so that disorder, slow dynamics and plastic deformation are the rule. Hence the phrase ‘soft condensed matter’ has been coined.
