Development of a rheological method to characterize palm oil crystallizing under shear (2008)
De Graef, Veerle, Goderis, Bart, Van Puyvelde, Peter, Foubert, Imogen, Dewettinck, Koen
To follow palm oil crystallization under shear, a new rheological method was developed. This method can be split up into two parts: In the first part, continuous shear is applied for a pre-defined...

Tavernier, Bruno, Mewis, Jan, Van Puyvelde, Peter, Takenaka, Mikihito, Ernst, Benoit, Hashimoto, Takeji
Breakup of filaments in blends during simple shear flow (2000)
Van Puyvelde, Peter; U0015835, Yang, H, Mewis, Joannes; U0010977
In this paper the breakup of droplets under shear in polymer blends is studied by means of linear conservative dichroism and small angle light scattering. More specifically breakup of long fibrils by...
Small-angle light scattering study of droplet break-up in emulsions and polymer blends (1998)
Mewis, Joannes; U0010977, Yang, H, Van Puyvelde, Peter; U0015835, Walker, LM
The potential of using small-angle light scattering (SALS) to probe morphological changes induced by flow in immiscible polymer blends is investigated. Well-defined flow histories are shown to result...
Rheo-optical probing of relaxational phenomena in immiscible polymer blends (1998)
Van Puyvelde, Peter; U0015835, Yang, H, Mewis, Joannes; U0010977
Rheo-optical techniques are used here to probe the development of the morphology in transparent polymeric emulsions. The evolution of the droplet geometry is monitored in situ by means of linear...
