Biopharmaceuticals are manufactured using chromatographic procedures including adsorption and desorption processes at the solid-liquid interface. These events take place in...

LixCoO2 is used extensively in portable batteries in laptops and mobile phones, but the scarcity of Li means that alternative materials are required. Structurally related...

In this novel proposal we will investigate adsorption onto the non-equilibrium face of calcite the first time this has been attempted. This will compliment and extend our...

We will use POLARIS to determine the structures of the high temperature superconducting intercalates obtained by the reactions between FeSe and deuterated ammonia solutions...

Incommensurate magnetic phases generated by frustrated magnetic exchange interactions can stabilise novel induced magnetoelectrics. We have recently found that the...

The following proposal aims to ellucidate the role of ammonium ions in sulfite oxidation reaction. The key step in the sulfur-ammonia photothermochemical cycle, which is one of...

In this proposal we investigate the adsorption of the key dispersant additive, sodium polyacrylate, used in colloidal systems using neutron reflection on aluminium oxide, with...

Sodium sulfate decahydrate (mirabilite) may be an important rock-forming mineral in the outer solar system, comprising a large fraction of the mantles of Jupiter's icy moons; it...

This proposal seeks PEARL beam time to conduct the first high-pressure neutron diffraction study of the monovalent azides XDF2, where X = Na, ND4, Cs and Tl. In so doing, we...

Novel cathode materials for rechargeable batteries have been under intense investigation since high cost and toxicity of current Li-ion batteries. We propose to study the...

Inelastic neutron measurements on some selected polycrystalline alkali halides (namely LiBr, LiI, NaBr, NaI), where the mass difference between anions and cations is large, are...

Objectives of this proposal aim to shed light on how adsorption processes such as protein A chromatography, used to purify biologics, affect protein propensity for aggregation....

NaxCoO2 has an exceptional combination of thermoelectric properties, including low thermal conductivity, and it is currently under consideration for use in power recovery and as...

We aim to use total scattering and pair distribution function (PDF) analysis to determine the local structure of the disordered amide-borohydride, Na2BH4NH2. We wish to...

In this proposal we investigate the adsorption of a key additive and functional group used in lubrication and wear applications using neutron reflection on a metal oxide...

Sodium Bismuth Titanate, Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 (NBT) is a mixed A-site perovskite. It is both of commercial interest, due to its usage in lead-free piezoelectric solid-solutions; and...

NaNbO3 has long been regarded as the 'most complex' perovskite known, with at least seven different phases reported as a function of T, at least two of which have evaded all...

We have recently observed extraordinary polymorphism on cooling various sodalites under vacuum. Materials undergo a phase transition followed by a fully reversible...
