Doping of γ -Fe₃O₄ magnetic nanoparticles in Pluronic F127/ DMF LLCs phases to tune the structural transitions and rheological behavior

Graphene quantum dot doped viscoelastic lyotropic liquid crystal nanocolloids for antibacterial applications

“…11 To overcome these shortcomings, non-aqueous glycerol-based LLCs may be the best option, because of their high boiling point, nominal viscosity, nontoxicity, good dipole moment, dielectric constant, non-Newtonian shear thinning behavior and viscoelastic nature. 12,13 Furthermore, for cosmetics and pharmaceutical applications, the rheological parameters of LLCs play a vital role in improving upon their quality, safety and application perspectives. 14 Viscoelasticity, elastic deformation, thermal stability and alignment of LLC phases can be tuned by incorporation of carbon-based nanoparticles owing to their unique properties viz.…”
