Probing the Mechanical Strength of an Armored Bubble and Its Implication to Particle-Stabilized Foams

Bubbles are dynamic objects that grow and rise or shrink and disappear, often on the scale of seconds. This conflicts with their uses in foams where they serve to modify the properties of the material in which they are embedded. Coating the bubble surface with solid particles has been demonstrated t...
