Abstract: We report on the smooth transition between gradient-banded velocity profiles with a sharp interface and curved velocity profiles, both resulting from strong shear-thinning dispersions of concentrated xanthan (a highly charged poly-saccharide). Pronounced shear-banded flow, where… read more here.
