Investigating dental resin polymer structures of as a function of light-curin...
Dimethacrylate resins are currently used for dental fillings. The polymers are set by free radical polymerisation. At present light curing protocols require 40s exposure at... -
The solution structure of the OmpF¿Colicin N complex in neutral detergent by ...
Gram negative bacteria cause a wide range of diseases including meningitis, bubonic plague, gonorrhoea, diarrhoea, Legionnaires' disease and cholera. Their outer membrane... -
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... -
Probing the internal structure of ethyl butyrate containing microemulsions us...
The proposal aims to establish the location of the oil, ethyl butyrate in dodecyldimethylamine-N-oxide (DDAO) microemulsions. Molecular dynamic simulations have proposed that a... -
Structural characterization of a series of polymer-protein conjugates for chr...
Polymer-protein conjugates have been designed to deliver an appropriate target growth factor to promote a more rapid healing of chronic wounds, an incredibly important area for... -
Conformation of HEC/Colloid system under Shear
Hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) is commonly used as a viscosity modifier in many chemical systems, from paints to cement. HEC forms a physical gel in water due to the presence of... -

Impact of multivalent counterions on surfactant self-assembly
We request SANS beam time on LOQ to study the impact of multivalent counterions on the micellisation of alkyloxyethylene sulfate surfactants and alkyloxyethylene sulphate /... -
SANS studies of imprinted nanogels: evaluation of a possible relationship bet...
The aim of the project is to use Small Angle Neutron Scattering (SANS) to determine the particle sizes and the internal shell dimensions of the nanogels as a function of the... -
Probing membrane localisation of molecular rotors (SANS)
A number of important biological processes, such as intracellular transport and signal transduction depend on the viscosity and the distribution of microdomains in cells. We... -
An In-Situ Study of the Formation of Amyloid Fibrils at Polymer Surfaces Usin...
We propose to study the formation of lateral features during insulin amyloid formation on polymer substrates using off-specular neutron reflectivity. This will be done by... -
Investigation of phase diagrams of polysaccharides
This project concerns fundamental and strategically important research underlying the development of new drug delivery vehicles. We propose to sample phase diagram of... -
Metallomicroemulsions - a new class of supramolecularly organised metal ions
Incorporation of d- or f-block metals into ligand systems that renders a metal complex surface active or drives its partitioning into surfactant phases enables the localisation... -
Self-assembly of nonionic surfactant in alcohol/water from room temperature t...
Surfactant self-assembly has been extensively studied in aqueous solution at room temperature or above, but it was less documented at temperatures below 0 °C. Our preliminary... -
SANS studies of Amphotec (aggregates of amphotericin-cholesteryl sulfate)
The anti-fungal agent amphotericin B (AmB) can be administered to patients in aqueous solution complexed with cholesteryl sulfate (CS), and this formulation helps to minimise... -
SANS study of self assembled structures formed from salicylate surfactant in ...
We wish to determine a structure we have observed in a dodecane/surfactant/water system. Initial experimentation has suggested the possibility of spontaneous formation of a... -
Vanadiumcarbide-precipitation kinetics in NANO-steels
Nano-steels are a new generation of Advanced High Strength Steels (AHSS), extremely suitable for lightweight automotive applications. The matrix of the steel, which provides... -
Investigation of SANS in the region of superfluid transition
We propose SANS measurements of 4He in a region of supefluid transition (2.2 K). The main aim of the experiment is to see whether at small-angle scattering there is an... -
Conformations in partially mixed block copolymers of partially deuterated pol...
Nascent 'disentangled' block copolymers of Ultra-high Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) with a reduced number of entanglements were synthesized having protonated (hPE) and... -
The structure of mucin at large distances - a spin-echo SANS study
Mucus is a bio-gel, an opaque and slimy secretion that forms a continuous ¿blanket¿ adherent to epithelial surfaces in mammalian organs (eye, nose, conductive airways,...
