Rheoacoustic Gels: Tuning Mechanical and Flow Properties of Colloidal Gels with Ultrasonic Vibrations

Colloidal gels, where nanoscale particles aggregate into an elastic yet fragile network, are at the heart of materials that combine specific optical, electrical, and mechanical properties. Tailoring the viscoelastic features of colloidal gels in real time thanks to an external stimulus currently app...
