Abstract:A phase separation in a dispersion of two kinds of particles has recently been reported to result from entropic interactions between particles and between particles and surfaces in closed spaces. In many cases, the phase separation took place localization of large particles in the vicinity of a compartment. However, phase separation in closed systems has been limited to systems in which the number of small particles was much larger than the number of large particles. In contrast, we prepared giant vesicles (GV… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
