softness Softness matters: effects of compression on the behavior of adsorbed microgels at interfaces By pubs.rsc.org Published On :: Soft Matter, 2024, Advance ArticleDOI: 10.1039/D4SM00235K, Paper Open Access   This article is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported Licence.Yuri Gerelli, Fabrizio Camerin, Steffen Bochenek, Maximilian M. Schmidt, Armando Maestro, Walter Richtering, Emanuela Zaccarelli, Andrea ScottiAs lateral compression is applied, microgel particles with different softness exhibit distinct behaviours. Hard microgels (green particles) are pushed away from the air–water interface, whereas soft ones (orange particles) are less deformed.To cite this article before page numbers are assigned, use the DOI form of citation above.The content of this RSS Feed (c) The Royal Society of Chemistry Full Article
softness Percolation transitions in a binary mixture of active Brownian particles with different softness By pubs.rsc.org Published On :: Soft Matter, 2024, Advance ArticleDOI: 10.1039/D4SM00981A, PaperMonika Sanoria, Raghunath Chelakkot, Amitabha NandiHomogeneous active Brownian particle (ABP) systems with purely repulsive interactions are considered to exhibit a simple phase behavior, but various physical attributes of active entities can lead to variation in the collective dynamics.To cite this article before page numbers are assigned, use the DOI form of citation above.The content of this RSS Feed (c) The Royal Society of Chemistry Full Article
softness Regulating local chemical softness of the collector to homogenize Li deposition for anode-free Li-metal batteries By pubs.rsc.org Published On :: Energy Environ. Sci., 2024, Advance ArticleDOI: 10.1039/D4EE03673E, PaperJiaming Zhu, Cong Kang, Xiangjun Xiao, Ya Mao, Ying Luo, Yuheng Wang, Quansheng Zhang, Yulin Ma, Chunyu Du, Shuaifeng Lou, Fanpeng Kong, Jingying Xie, Geping YinA heterogeneous collector featuring hard-base sites and soft-acid sites is proposed, which significantly reduces nucleation and growth barriers, with no dendrite formation. This finding offers a pathway to rationally design highly efficient collectors for AFLMBs.To cite this article before page numbers are assigned, use the DOI form of citation above.The content of this RSS Feed (c) The Royal Society of Chemistry Full Article
softness Foam-type hair dye composition for improving hair softness without dripping By www.freepatentsonline.com Published On :: Tue, 12 May 2015 08:00:00 EDT The present invention relates to a hair dye composition, and more particularly, to a foam-type hair dye composition comprising: a first agent including a dye and an alkaline agent and a second agent including an oxidant; and a nonionic viscosity increasing agent of a PEG-aliphatic acid ester or a PPG-aliphatic acid ester in one or both of the first agent and the second agent, thereby largely improving dyeing properties without dripping after the composition is coated on hair.
