Abstract
Because of the capillary interactions arising from surface corrugation, rough particles at fluid interfaces often exhibit intricate rheological responses to interfacial deformations and material flows, challenging the conventional physicochemical and thermodynamic concepts that were typically applied in bulk suspensions. Although such rheological responses have been widely applied in industrial processes (i.e. crude oil recovery) and some biological systems (i.e. the dynamics of lung alveoli), studies on their physical mechanisms are not summarized systematically. In this work, we present an overview of the rheological effects of rough particle-laden interfaces, where the influences of particles’ softness and geometric roughness are emphatically discussed. We also point out that, relevant rheological effects can be strongly affected by a competition between the particles’ capillary attractions and frictional forces. Potentially, integrating experiments and simulations from a mesoscale perspective would gain deeper insights into the rheological properties for a quasi-2D system.
期刊介绍:
Current Opinion in Colloid and Interface Science (COCIS) is an international journal that focuses on the molecular and nanoscopic aspects of colloidal systems and interfaces in various scientific and technological fields. These include materials science, biologically-relevant systems, energy and environmental technologies, and industrial applications.
Unlike primary journals, COCIS primarily serves as a guide for researchers, helping them navigate through the vast landscape of recently published literature. It critically analyzes the state of the art, identifies bottlenecks and unsolved issues, and proposes future developments.
Moreover, COCIS emphasizes certain areas and papers that are considered particularly interesting and significant by the Editors and Section Editors. Its goal is to provide valuable insights and updates to the research community in these specialized areas.
