Anomalous crystalline ordering of particles in a viscoelastic fluid under high shear by Sun, Sijie, Xue, Nan, Aime, Stefano, Kim, Hyoungsoo, Tang, Jizhou, McKinley, Gareth H., Stone, Howard A., Weitz, David A.

“…Addition of particles to a viscoelastic suspension dramatically alters the properties of the mixture, particularly when it is sheared or otherwise processed. Shear-induced stretching of the polymers results in elastic stress that causes a substantial increase in measured viscosity with increasing shear, and an attractive interaction between particles, leading to their chaining. …”
