Imagine a "smart fluid" whose internal structure can be rearranged just by changing temperature. In a new study published in ...

Davina McCall has shared that she is undergoing surgery to remove a rare kind of brain tumour. The Big Brother and Masked Singer presenter said she is having the operation after a brain scan revealed ...

Physicists in the Netherlands have created artificial crystals made of colloidal particles that could be used to explore the behaviour of ordinary ionic crystals. The team discovered a number of new ...

A colloidal solution is a uniform dispersion of two different types of components—particles or droplets of one phase, the solute, in a second (typically liquid) phase, the solvent. Milk, a colloid of ...

Urine is a highly saturated solution of extremely complicated composition. Its basic organic constituents are urea, uric acid and its salts, formed by the oxidation of purines. In that fluid, ...

A research team simulated phase separation in colloidal suspensions. By treating colloid particles as undeformable highly viscous liquid droplets suspended in a solvent, they predicted the kinetics of ...

A colloidal solution is a uniform dispersion of two completely different types of components—particles or droplets of one phase, called the solute, in a second, typically liquid, phase, called the ...
