Students will learn how to categorize matter as either pure substances or mixtures. Students will apply tests, based on physical properties of matter samples, to determine whether a mixture is ...

Polymer–colloid composites represent an attractive class of hybrid materials in which one can tailor their properties by exploiting the individual and collective properties of both components 1,2,3,4.

Equilibrium self-assembly relies on the relaxation of disordered mixtures of building blocks towards an ordered ground state. The main drawback of this traditional approach lies in the kinetic traps ...
