This spreadsheet contains data of the concentrations of Al, Ca, Mn, Sr, U, Th and rare earth elements in bulk sediments of ODP Site 202-1242. Digested samples were measured...

A number of important biological processes, such as intracellular transport and signal transduction depend on the viscosity and the distribution of microdomains in cells. We...

Migration and surface segregation of low molecular weight oligomers in adhesive formulations is a poorly understood, but hugely important phenomenon, responsible for most of the...

The structure of colloidal crystals (dispersions of particles that spontaneously order in a regular array) is known to be influenced by solid boundaries. However there are few...

FeRh in the CsCl structure is an interesting material with a tunable magnetostructural phase transition close to, or just above room temperature. On heating through the...

Pyrite (FeS2) is a hydrophobic mineral surface, i.e. of a type thus far inaccessible to the types of aqueous adsorption experiments suitable for study by reflectometry (NR), but...

In polymer-fullerene based photovoltaic systems the phase behaviour of the blends is poorly understood and remains a fundamental stumbling block to improvements in device...

Antibiotic resistance is pathogenic bacteria is a major clinical problem. Resistance to all antibiotiotic classes, currentl yin clinical use, has been reported. By contrast, the...

PVA film is widely used as a non-toxic water soluble polymer. This proposal relates to its use in unit dose detergent pouches where plasticised PVA film stores a concentrated...

In a recent experiment carried out on SURF we have shown that on addition of ethanol to a DPPC model membrane, the anaesthetic initially diffuses to the bilayer surface followed...

In recent years we have had considerable success with the surface modification of amorphous and crystalline thermal plastic polymers using multi-end functional additives. In...

Copper is an important industrial metal, predominantly used in electrical wiring and plumbing, as well as in power transformers. Throughout these applications, sulphur is known...
