Disorder in substituted beta-tricalcium phosphate for waste immobilisation
We have a long established interest in the materials used for the immobilisation of nuclear waste from the domestic power industry and legacy waste from various defence... -
A Time-Resolved SANS Study of the Gelation Mechanisms of Tetrapeptide Hydroge...
Time-resolved SANS will be used to investigate the mechanisms and kinetics of ordering of aseries of novel designed tetrapeptide-based hydrogelators. These inexpensive materials... -
Which is it? ¿ Neutrons distinguish monolayers xrays can¿t.
We have obtained the monolayer structure diffraction patterns from several iodoalkanes adsorbed on graphite, of interest in the study of non-covalent bonding. However, it is... -
Mixing CO2-philc surfactants and hydrotropes as a new approach to control vis...
One application where liquid CO2 has found success is enhanced oil recovery (CO2-EOR) of crude oil from porous rocks. However, a significant disadvantage of using CO2 in EOR is... -
In situ diffraction studies of the archetypal network glass, SiO2 at high pre...
Silica glass is one of the most widely studies amorphous materials. It is the archetypal glass former, comprising a network of corner-shared SiO4 tetrahedra. Recently a lot of... -
Investigation of the new spin-ladder compound MgCu2O3
Here we propose to investigate the excitation spectrum of the new spin-ladder compound MgCu2O3. Unlike typical spin-ladders this compound has a rung coupling that is much weaker... -
Molecular Mechanistic Processes of Complexation between DNA and Cationic Copo...
We have previously used LOQ to identify the complex (polyplex) structures formed between a short single strand DNA and a cationic diblock copolymer MPC30-DEA60. The SANS... -
Outer membrane mimics using novel thiol-PC
We have recently shown that dense monolayers of PC can be assembled on gold surfaces using a new omega thiol PC from Avanti. This has two advantages over our previous methods.... -
Investigating the ground state of the proposed valence bond glass Ba2LuMoO6
Geometrically frustrated magnetic systems have been widely studied in the search for novel quantum states of matter. The fcc lattice Ba2YMoO6 has been shown to be a valence bond... -

Effect of membrane fluidity for novel dendrimer drug interaction and uptake m...
Bacteria growing resistant to common antibiotics is a growing problem and research in new types of medicines which do not induce resistance is therefore very important. Novel... -
Adsorption of cationic surfactants to Al2O3
A recent experiment has provided clear evidence for a large maximum in the adsorption just below the critical micelle concentration of the surfactant hexadecyl trimethyl... -
Investigation of the structural and magnetic properties of new Co based fluor...
We have recently managed to prepare powder samples and small single crystals of BaCoF4, BaNiF4, Ba2Co3F10, and the new tetragonal compound Ba2CoF6. These materials are... -

Ordered structures in the new Topological Insulators
We propose to investigate the structure of the new ¿ordered¿ phases within the Bi2Se3-Bi2Te3 phase diagram of the newly discovered Topological Insulators. The bulk properties of... -
Seizing Membrane Proteins - Cytochrome P450 Reductase in Nanodiscs
This proposal seeks to shed light on the functional and structural characteristics of a specific membrane protein - cytochrome P450 reductase (abb. POR) - part of the cytochrome... -
Dynamics within the Plastic Crystal Phases of Hydrogen Chloride
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... -
Test of an array of new thermal and resonance neutron detectors
The R&D activity on neutron detectors is strategic and instrumental for the development of reliable application of the neutron techniques. We propose to use two equal... -
Spin relaxation of short-lived spin-labelled radicals in solution
The spin relaxation rates of free radicals in solution can provide valuable information about the dynamics of molecular tumbling in solution, and solvent-radical interactions.... -
Cation ordering in silicate spinel Ni2SiO4
Silicate spinels are important minerals in the transition zone region of the Earth and in order to understand seismic signals from these depths (550-660 km) we need to know the...
