Structure of Cellulose Nanofibril Gels with Different Surfactants
This proposal is part of a project based on understanding the formation of gels in suspensions of partially oxidised cellulose nanofibrils and small amounts of additives, such... -
The effect of alcohol chain length on the interaction between PS-PEO copolyme...
In many applications, surfactants are formulated with a variety of additives to achieve a desired range of properties; polymers and cosurfactants/cosolvents (such as alcohols)... -
SANS study of hollow nanoparticles and their solvent release
Hollow nanoparticles (HNP) have been successfully used for encapsulation and controlled release of biochemicals such as drugs, DNA, and dyes. However no in-situ method has been... -
Solubilisation of Drug Molecules in Nonionic Surfactant Micelles: Structural ...
This proposal aims to understand how the structure of non-ionic surfactant micelles affects the amount of fungicides solubilised. SANS is a technique unique for unravelling the... -
Phase Separation in Organic Photovoltaic Cells
Organic photovoltaic (OPV) cells have the potential to be the basis of a renewable energy source that is inexpensive and portable. Current state-of-the-art solution-processed... -
Non-equilibrium kinetics in highly interacting polymer mixtures
We seek to investigate the non-equilibrium phenomena of a model polymer mixture by time-solved SANS and temperature jump experiments within (a) one-phase region and (b) one to...
