Determination of Organic Friction Modifier conformation under shear
Engine oils act to lubricate and protect moving parts in an engine. They act to reduce friction and reduce emissions. A major class of friction reducing additives are organic... -
Temperature-induced structural changes of Organic Friction Modifier films at ...
Engine oils provide lubrication to moving components in engines, improving vehicle lifespans whilst reducing emissions and fuel consumption by minimising friction. A common... -
Mechanism of Wax Anti-Settling Additives and their role within Wax Crystallis...
Wax anti-settling additives are used to limit the sedimentation of wax crystals by reducing the crystal size and improving the stability of the wax crystal suspensions. The two... -
The structure of glycerol mono oleate at the iron oxide/dodecane interface
The reliability of combustion engines is enhanced by lubrication, which provides wear protection along with reduced emissions and fuel consumption through the minimisation of... -

Population Control of Entangled Levels PTFE
We have recently performed a test experiment which demonstrates the potential (RB1510281) of using RF muon spectroscopy to manipulate the population of the levels of the FmuF... -
SANS study of engine oil gelation
Metal carbonate particles dispersed in dodecane and stabilised with alkyl salicylate surfactants have been shown to aggregate when trace water is added. We have found that... -
The structure of glycerol mono oleate at the iron oxide/dodecane interface
The reliability of combustion engines is enhanced by lubrication, which provides wear protection along with reduced emissions and fuel consumption through the minimisation of... -
SANS study of the reformation of an engine oil gel after shear
We would like to observe the change in neutron scattering observed after applying shear stress to gel samples. Complete gelation of samples of oil containing an engine oil...
