Liquid-Liquid Phase Separation in an Elastic Network

Liquid-Liquid Phase Separation in an Elastic Network

Living and engineered systems rely on the stable coexistence of two interspersed liquid phases. Yet, surface tension drives their complete separation. Here, we show that stable droplets of uniform and tunable size can be produced through arrested phase separation in an elastic matrix. Starting with...
