      Dynamic responses in nanocomposite hydrogels 

      Loizou, Elena; Butler, P.; Porcar, L.; Schmidt, G. (2006)
      The shear response of a series of polymer-clay gels has been investigated by means of rheology and small-angle neutron scattering (SANS). The gels have the same composition by mass but different polymer molecular weights ...

      Shear-induced nanometer and micrometer structural responses in nanocomposite hydrogels 

      Loizou, Elena; Porcar, L.; Schexnailder, P.; Schmidt, G.; Butler, P. (2010)
      The structural responses of a polymer-clay nanocomposite hydrogel to an imposed shear field are investigated from the nanometer to the micrometer length scales. The effects of polymer molecular weight and concentration of ...
