Investigation of the surface structure of anionic surfactants induced by the ...
This proposal is part of a major EPSRC (EP/GR065705) / Unilever funded programme to develop and control the spontaneous formation of surfactant multilayer structures at... -
Adsorption of sodium polyacrylate to sapphire - how does a colloidal stabiliz...
Stabilizers of colloidal particles are often complex and their function may involve several mechanisms to impart stability of a wide range of conditions. Sodium polyacrylate is... -
Neutron reflectivity studies of the interaction of amphotericin with model ce...
The increasing incidence of pathogenic fungi resistant to treatment with amphotericin (AmB) has created a demand for novel anti-fungal agents that can circumvent the pathogens¿... -
Effect of intergranular stress on creep deformation in 316H during high tempe...
Creep lifetime of high temperature power plant materials are significantly affected due to predicted and unpredicted cyclic loading during plant operation. Our previous study... -
Interaction between RNA and lipid monolayers
The objective of the suggested study is to reveal the structure formed when short ssRNA molecules (similar to miRNA) interact with lipid monolayers at the air-water interface.... -
Do hydroxyl radicals penetrate the organic monolayer at the air-water interface?
The Earth¿s climate is strongly influenced by clouds. The oxidative processing of pollutants in clouds affects droplet size and optical properties, important climatic effects.... -
Macrocyclic ligands at the oil-water interface
Azacrown ethers and a mixture of azacrown ethers and fatty acids have been studied at the oil-water interface using surface-pressure isotherms and other classical surface... -
Adsorption of surfactants used in fire-fighting foams
The aim is to use Neutron Reflectivity (NR) to gain essential information on adsorption properties of practical fluorotelomer surfactants used in fire-fighting foam formulations... -
Interaction of thermo-responsive deutrated nanogels with lipid monolayer at t...
Drug delivery through skin is an important delivery route. However, the outermost layer of the skin provides a formidable barrier to dermal absorption and penetration for... -
Measurement of muonic X-rays using a segmented calorimeter towards an observa...
The proposed experiment aims to establish a detector system for a measurement of parity-violating effect in muonic atoms. A measurement of parity violation in atoms is a... -
PNR of Magnetic Order in Delta-Doped Topological Insulators
We aim at studying proximity effects between a ferromagnetic thin film (either metallic or insulating) and a topological insulator (either undoped, or magnetically homogeneously... -

Adsorption maxima at the solid/liquid interface
Adsorption maxima have been reported for adsorption at the hydrophilic solid/water interface based on measurements on powders and solution analysis. Many would claim that this... -
Voltage induced actuation - a Kinetics study
This is one of a pair of linked proposals, one for SURF and one for INTER. The voltage response of poly(2-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate) (PDMAEMA) weak polybase brushes... -
Interaction of polypeptide with surfactant on the surface of water
This proposal constitutes part of our ongoing study towards understanding the adsorption of collagen based polypeptide and its interaction with ionic surfactants at the... -
Interaction of a cationic surfactant with rigid oligoanions
The interaction of small polyelectrolytes or oligoions with surfactants appears to follow a model that we have recently established for large polyelectrolytes but the smaller... -
Measurement of residual polarization and hyperfine transition rate in muonic ...
This proposed experiment is a muon spin rotation measurement of the hyperfine transition rate in muonic atoms involving a proton or deuteron. The residual spin polarization of a... -
Hidden patterns in Indian sword blades
One of our long-term aims is a detailed study of Oriental Arms & Armour in the Wallace Collection, London (which has over one thousand items, and is the most important... -
Head Group charging and anaesthetic Interaction with Model Bilayers
The mechanism of general anaesthetic action is poorly understood despite their widespread use. It is hoped that investigating the interaction of anaesthetics with lipid bilayers... -
The use of surfactant structure to control self-assembly induced by the addit...
