This dataset consists of (1) an excel file with type and token counts of all paired consonants word-finally and before non-front vowels, their probabilities, and the entropies...

Recent SAXS measurements have indicated that CO2 can dramatically swell the surfactant layer in w/o microemulsions formed in CO2-swollen oils and also enhance solubilisation...

This proposal is part of a research programme which is focused on nano-fibres prepared by electrospinning. The programme is centered on the spinning...

The structure of ionic liquid (IL)-gas interfaces is currently a hot topic in the field and our understanding of pure ILs is improving. However, very little is known about the...

Hydrogen chloride exhibits a complex phase diagram account made of its simple molecular structure. Three crystalline phases are known to exist at ambient pressure below its...

The aim of the study is to use SANS in combination with contrast variation to determine the effect of solubilising the lipophilic drug, testosterone propionate, in micelles...

Protein-surfactant interactions at an interface play an important role for broad applications in the chemical, dairy, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries. Rubisco is the most...

The aim of the experiment is to employ SANS to study the physical properties of a novel and very stable aqueous Fe3O4 ferrofluid system stabilized by the commercially available...

Rhamnolipids are a type of glycolipid biosurfactant, produced as secondary metabolites by various Pseudomonas and Burkholderia species; they have been shown to possess...

Small angle neutron scattering will be used in combination with contrast variation as a non-invasive method to detect the presence and size formation of lipid microdomains or...

In the present proposal small angle neutron scattering will be used in combination with contrast variation as a non-invasive method to detect the presence and size formation of...

Several interesting results have emerged in studies of Aerosol-OT at the sapphire/solution interface that relate to effects of counter-ions, insensitivity to pH as well as the...

To determine the temperature evolution of the structures of two Bi-based perovskites with commensurate structures through their magnetic transition temperatures to contrast...

The separation of particular lipids in cell membranes into liquid ordered and liquid disorder regions is thought to have a major influence of the functioning of membrane...

Despite interest in microemulsions as drug delivery vehicles, there is a lack of structural understanding to justify the formulations used. The present study examines the use of...

There is considerable effort being put into the modelling of the outer layer of skin, the stratum corneum, because of impending EU restrictions on the use of animal skin for...

The present proposal is part of a larger EPSRC project advancing the vibrational spectroscopy of silicate glasses. The project involves the techniques of IR and Raman...

Short peptide sequences consisting of hydrophobic and hydrophilic amino acid units are capable of self-assembly, leading to interfacial adsorption and solution nano-aggregation....

Gene delivery vehicles, known as LPD complexes, prepared from mixing cationic lipid vesicles (L) with cationic peptide (P) and DNA (D) have proven to be very effective at...

Mixtures of colloidal particles of essentially two different sizes are commonly used in technological applications such as film formation on surfaces, paper coatings, etc....
