ADVANCED POLYMER MATERIALS FOR ENERGY SECURITY (POLYMAT)
This proposal requests time on NIMROD at ISIS to enable the characterisation of polymer nanocomposite interfaces. This information will be used as part of a wider effort for... -
Unraveling the structural ordering of water in amorphous calcium carbonate us...
Calcium carbonates make up some of the most abundant minerals in the world. They are of great importance in geology and in the field of biomaterials as well as having several... -
quantitative dark field imaging using Larmor labelling
We will determine whether a neutron technique called dark field Lamor imaging can provide quantitative information about the spatial distribution of small inhomogeneities in... -
Stabilising emulsions with protein-surfactant mixtures.
Hydrophobins, hfb2, are secreted fungal proteins, which are strongly surface active and possess powerful emulsion and foam stabilising properties. Understanding their... -

Disordered Materials Express: Microstructurally and Compositionally Accurate ...
Production of oil and gas from shale resources has revolutionized the energy industry. However, the physics and chemistry describing fluid flow in shale are fundamentally... -
Centrifugal Force Spun Fibres
Centrifugal force spinning is a technique that has recently come into light as an easy route to producing large quantities of nano- to micro- scale polymer fibres in a short... -
Structure-function studies of Replication Protein A and its complexes with DNA.
Replication protein A (RPA), the eukaryotic ssDNA binding protein, is a heterotrimeric protein required for almost all aspects of cellular DNA metabolism. RPA binds... -
The formation of hybrid organo-metallic perovskites by inverse temperature cr...
Hybrid lead perovskites have received much attention over the past decade since they have potential applications in optoelectronic devices and solar cells. Although most devices... -
Influence of path length on wavelength dependent transmission corrections for...
Diffraction from hydrogenous materials is complicated by its large incoherent scattering contribution. For many materials, deuteration before performing experiments is the... -
Understanding the molecular origin of cononsolvency
The term cononsolvency has been used to describe a situation in which a polymer is less soluble in a mixture of two cosolvents than it is in either one of the pure solvents. If... -
Structural development in Whey protein polymer composite solutions for electr...
This is part of an on-going investigation into nano/micro scale sized polymer fibres at the University of Reading, prepared through the process of electrospinning. Currently we... -
A Structural Study of Tungsten Tellurite Glasses
Tungsten Tellurites are being used to make optical fibres that transmit light into the mid infra red. However, not much is know about the structure of these glasses. We wish to... -
Interaction of Chiral Amino Acids with Hydrated Vermiculite Clay
The aim of this proposal is to obtain an atomistic understanding of the adsorption of chiral amino acids on mineral surfaces. Our previous experiments on LOQ and at ILL on D16... -

The In-Situ Investigation of Proton Exchange Fuel Cell Membranes under Contro...
The aim of this work is to use small angle neutron scattering (SANS) to probe the vapour sorption of the ionomeric component of novel proton exchange membranes as a function of... -
Study of alcohols by Transmission and Deep Inelastic Neutron Scattering measu...
Many of the structural and dynamical properties of alcohols are due to the existence of intermolecular hydrogen bonds. It is of general interest the study of their dynamic and... -
Neutron diffraction of amorphous magnesium carbonate (AMC)
Biominerals, including calcium carbonates, are found in a range of organisms. Although amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC) is inherently unstable, it is a key material in... -
SANS of Supported Zirconocene Olefin Polymerisation Catalysts
This proposal is concerned with determining the active species of the polymerisation catalyst comprising ansa-bridged indenyl zirconium complexes supported with MAO on silica... -
Spin-Lattice coupling in Frustrated Triangular Lattice Antiferromagnet AFeO2 ...
In this proposal, we would like to propose to perform neutron diffraction experiments on the powder samples of the frustrated antiferromagnets AFeO2 (A=Cu and Ag) using WISH. In...
