Published in 2025 at "Rheologica Acta"

DOI: 10.1007/s00397-025-01510-1

Abstract: Capillary thinning of polymeric fluids is central to biological and industrial processes, yet the mechanisms governing thinning dynamics remain unresolved, especially for semi-flexible polymers. Using ideal solutions of semi-flexible DNA, we validate a phenomenological model… read more here.
