Carefully tuned composite materials can have properties wholly unlike theirseparate constituents. We review the development of one example:colloid-stabilized emulsions with bicontinuous liquid domains. Thesenon-equilibrium structures resemble the sponge mesophase of surfactants;however, in the colloid-stabilized case the interface separating the liquiddomains is itself semi-solid. The arrangement of domains is created byarresting liquid-liquid phase separation via spinodal decomposition. Dispersedcolloids exhibiting partial wettability become trapped on the newly createdinterface and jam together as the domains coarsen. Similar structures have beencreated in polymer blends stabilized using either interfacial nanoparticles orclay platelets. Here it has been possible to create the domain arrangementeither by phase separation or by direct mixing of the melt. The lowmolecular-weight liquid and polymer based structures have been developedindependently and much can be learnt by comparing the two.
