Ionic Liquid ¿ Water Interactions
This project aims to examine the structure of microemulsions formed by water and 1-methyl-3-ethylimidazolium-based ionic liquids with the acetate or octanoate anion. These... -
Structure of Colloidal Titania Particles in Water vs Organic Solvent
Dye sensitised solar cells, based around colloids of the wide bandgap semiconductor TiO2 with bound dyes have potential to provide a cheap,sustainable source of solar energy... -
Understanding the decrease in adsorption of surfactants at a solid surface ab...
Previous data obtained from neutron reflection shown in Figure 1 has clearly shown that the surface excess of some surfactants when adsorbed from aqueous solution to a sapphire... -
Molecular diffusion in supercooled liquid water
Following our μSR experiment on liquid water (RB1720491) we propose to measure molecular diffusion coefficient (the sum of the diffusion coefficients of muonium and oxygen... -
Measurement of the neutron cross section of α-alanine and other amino acids f...
The solid state of L-alpha-alanine is routinely used as a dosimeter for X-ray, gamma, and electron radiations. Recently, in the framework of boron neutron capture therapy, it... -
A METHOD OF MEASURING ANTIOXIDANT CAPACITY
Antioxidants are receiving increased attention for their potential effects in the prevention of chronic and degenerative diseases such as cancer and cardiovascular disease as... -
Structure of AOT layers at the sapphire water interface ¿ avoiding an isotope...
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... -
The structure of water in halloysite nanotubes
Water is important in many scientific and technological areas, yet our understanding of this remarkable liquid remains very incomplete. In may cases, it is the properties of... -
Dynamics of Water on Surface of Reverse Osmotic Membranes
We are proposing 10 days of beamtime on IRIS to investigate the diffusion process of H2O molecules adsorbed on polyamide, surface material of reverse osmotic membranes currently... -
Microscopic structure of acetic acid in water and methanol
Some of the most important chemical reactions involve Brønsted acids and bases where the solvation structure and transport dynamics of charged defects in hydrogen-bonded... -
Structural Analysis of Water Multilayer in Lamellar Mesoporous Materials
Although the preparation of lamellar mesoporous materials (LMMs) is very difficult due to collapsion in removing the templating surfactant, we have successfully synthesized a... -
Deuteron Coherence in Carbon Nanotube Water
The protons in H2O confined in carbon nanotubes have been shown to delocalize coherently at low temperatures, exhibiting a rich phenomenology that is sensitive to the diameter... -
Dynamics of Poly Dimethyl Amino Ethyl Methacrylate / water glycerol mixtures
We want to study the microscopic mechanisms of solvent dynamics such as water and glycerol in ahydrophilic polymer. Dielectric measurements suggest that below the glass... -
Location of the lipophilic drug testosterone propionate at the oil-water inte...
Solubilisation of poorly-water soluble drug in surfactant micelles is an attractive means of increasing the apparent aqueous solubility of such drugs in order to administer the... -
Fate of silver nanoparticles in enhanced wastewater treatment
Building on the success of our earlier work, we now propose to use SANS to examine the floc structure and sedimentation behaviour of silver nanoparticles in wastewater matrices... -
INS studies of Nafion and model compounds
In the archetypal hydrogenoxygen proton exchange membrane fuel cell design, a proton-conducting polymer membrane (typically Nafion) contains the electrolyte solution that... -
Non-destructive investigation of pottery finds from Vörs-Máriaasszonysziget
The present application focuses on the determination of possible differences in pottery production methods during the Neolithic Period . Samples of coarse grain temper (organic... -

Low field µSR studies of radiation chemistry and free radical reactions by no...
Microwave (MW) assisted chemical reactions are of interest as a green, energy efficient alternative to conventional thermal heating for chemical processes. MW irradiation... -
Hydrophobicity ¿ The Key to Polymer-Drug Conjugate Conformation
The use of polymer-drug conjugates for the delivery of drugs to specific sites of disease within the body has shown much clinical promise. It has become clear that the...
