Bowel cancer is the fourth most common cancer in the UK with approximately 41,000 individuals in the UK diagnosed annually. Importantly it is estimated that over half of all...

The magnetic field-driven alignment of a photoconductive gel formed by an alkylated fullerene-C60 in n-alkanes will be studied. These could find application in next-generation...

The aim of this experiment is to investigate surfactant aggregation in ionic liquids and also ionic liquid ¿ oil and ionic liquid ¿ water microemulsions via SANS. Contrast...

We propose a SANS experiment to investigate a structural transition involving an alkylated fullerene-C60 (an alkyl-aromatic hydrophobic amphiphile) in alkane solvents from an...

Building from experimental kinetic work already carried out, we will investigate the initial steps in the assembly mechanism of gemini surfactants that form fibrous gels in...

This proposal concerns a novel approach to phase separation in self-assembling colloidal systems. Microemulsions can be readily formulated to display critical-type phase...

Building from work previously carried out at ISIS (RB1410544) and pulished open-access in Chem. Commun. 2016, 25, 7344, we propose a SANS experiment to investigate the structure...

The ability of micelles of C60-containing hydrophobic amphiphiles to incorporate pristine C60 will be explored. Contrast variation SANS (CV-SANS) will be employed to fully...

There is a well-documented track record of research into water-in-CO2 (w/c) microemulsions. Using newly discovered CO2 compatible surfactants, the next step is to explore...

The droplet size of oil-in-water microemulsions in which the oil phase is a highly fluorescent liquid alkyl-pyrene will be investigated. Different compositions will be prepared...

Recently, we have prepared highly active carbon catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction in hydrogen fuel cells. These materials are synthesized easily by mixing metal...

The purpose is to follow a structural evolution as water soluble (normal curvature) micelles are gradually transformed into oil soluble (reversed curvature) aggregates. Although...
