Foaming honey: particle or molecular foaming agent? (2020)
Journal Article
Tyowua, A. T., Echendu, A. M., Yiase, S. G., Adejo, S. O., Leke, L., Mbawuaga, E. M., & Binks, B. P. (in press). Foaming honey: particle or molecular foaming agent?. Journal of Dispersion Science and Technology, https://doi.org/10.1080/01932691.2020.1845718

Honey foam was prepared using particle (precipitated CaCO3) or molecular (sodium lauryl sulfate) foaming agent. We noted the foam volume and the time it took a foam sample to collapse completely so as to determine the best foaming agent. Foams were p...

Responsive Photonic Liquid Marbles (2020)
Journal Article
Anyfantakis, M., Jampani, V. S., Kizhakidathazhath, R., Binks, B. P., & Lagerwall, J. P. (2020). Responsive Photonic Liquid Marbles. Angewandte Chemie, 59(43), 19260-19267. https://doi.org/10.1002/anie.202008210

Liquid marbles have potential to serve as mini-reactors for fabricating new materials, but this has been exploited little and mostly for conventional chemical reactions. Here, we uncover the unparalleled capability of liquid marbles to act as platfor... Read More about Responsive Photonic Liquid Marbles.

Oleofoams are dispersions of gas bubbles in a continuous oil phase and can be stabilized by crystals of fatty acids or waxes adsorbing at the oil-air interface. Because excess crystals in the continuous phase form an oleogel, an effect of the bulk rh...
