Superposition of sedimentation and demixing in a centrifugal field

“…(5). In this case, the construction of the double tangent to the Ḡ * (x * 2 )-curve delivers the concentrations x * 2 and x * 2 of coexisting phases that are the binodal concentrations.…”

“…For the combination of i = 1 and r → ∞ this can be seen also from Eq. (5) where only the first line on the right-hand side is retained which has the same structure as that of a regular solution except that base molar fractions have to be replaced by molar fractions. 1 This is the reason why the critical value χ x,crit.…”

“…Hence, it follows that the coexisting phases are not positioned in the gravitational or centrifugal field in the 0141-8130/$ -see front matter © 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. doi:10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2005.02.006 right way where the less dense phase has to be above the more dense [5].…”

Flexible Allyl‐Modified Gelatin Photoclick Resin Tailored for Volumetric Bioprinting of Matrices for Soft Tissue Engineering

“…[34] When comparing to the silk-based material, besides the differences in the chemical composition, gelatin-based solutions can withstand a wide range of temperature and possess an inherent thermoreversible sol-gel transition. [35] This physicochemical feature is particularly useful for VBP to control the external environment simply and precisely to induce a physical gel with suitable viscosity. In contrast, in silk-fibroin-based solutions conformational changes occur at 37 °C, which lead to irreversible 𝛽-sheet formation, thus yielding a permanent physical gel.…”
