  1. Prof. Ali Mohraz • Assistant Professor • B.S. Chemical Engineering, Azad University (1996) • M.E. Chemical Engineering, The City University of New York (1999) • Ph.D. Chemical Engineering, The University of Michigan, Ann Arbor (2004) Mohraz LabColloid Science and Complex Fluids Engineeringmohraz@uci.eduhttp://csl.eng.uci.edu Research Summary: The Colloid Science Laboratory at UC Irvine investigates a range of fundamental and applied problems related to the physics and engineering of soft materials, colloidal dispersions, and complex fluids. Using state-of-the-art experimental techniques, our goal is to gain a more thorough understanding of how the interparticle interactions, particle geometry, and the suspension physicochemical conditions can be exploited to engineer novel micro- and nanostructured materials from multiphase colloidal suspensions. The applications of our research are broad, ranging from nano-structured composites for fuel cells and batteries to pharmaceutical formulations, coatings, personal care products, foods, and oil industries. Current areas of focus are: • Microstructural determinants of nonlinear rheology in colloidal gels and glasses. • Self-assembly and dynamics of colloidal particles at fluid/fluid interfaces. • Rheology of structured fluids in confinement. • Interfacial routes to microstructured materials synthesis. • Key Publications: • Lee, M.N.; Chan, H.K.; Mohraz, A; Characteristics of Pickering Emulsion Gels Formed by Droplet Bridging, Langmuir, DOI: 10.1021/la203384f (2012) (Cover Article) • Rajaram, B; Mohraz, A, Dynamics of shear-induced yielding and flow in dilute colloidal gels, Physical Review E 84, 1, Art.
