Nanotechnology with soft materials. (2003, background): “Introductory textbooks on soft matter, primarily covering synthetic systems (colloids, polymers, surfactants and liquid crystals), have appeared recently.[4,5] Niemeyer has reviewed DNA-based bionanotechnology.”
Liquid‐Phase Exfoliation of Nanotubes and Graphene (2009, background): “3).([117]) Additionally, in some cases stabilization is achieved by electrostatic interactions between the functional groups.”
Physics of adherent cells (2013, background): “Soft matter physics traditionally has focused on the properties of liquid crystals, colloidal dispersions, emulsions, fluid membranes, polymer gels and other complex fluids (Chaikin and Lubensky, 2000; de Gennes, 1992; Jones, 2002; Safran, 2003).”
ESPResSo - an extensible simulation package for research on soft matter systems (2006, neutral): “Many such materials are familiar from everyday life—glues, paints, soaps, baby diapers—while others are important in industrial processes, such as polymer melts that are molded and extruded to form plastics [1], or polymer networks for the development of rubber [2].”
Polymer Nanocomposites: The “Nano” Effect on Mechanical Properties (2007, background): “25 The excluded volume contribution is derived from the fact that two hard filler objects cannot occupy the same space at the same time; therefore, a repulsive force develops due to the entropy of the filler objects.”
Graphene Oxide: Surface Activity and Two‐Dimensional Assembly (2010, background): “In this Research News article the surface activity of GO and how it can be employed to create two-dimensional assemblies over large areas is discussed.”
Tuned, driven, and active soft matter (2015, background): “These are block copolymers, where chemically different connected parts of the molecules tend to micro-phase separate into regular spatial textures [15]; surfactant molecules composed of hydrophobic (“water-fearing”) and hydrophilic (“water-loving”) parts that self-assemble for instance into bilayer ”
