Glycolysis of polyethylterephthalate (PET) catalysed by ionic liquid solvents could offer a metal-free low cost approach to chemical recycling of waste PET. This work will...

We have recently shown that the addition of single walled carbon nanotubes produces a minimum in the diffusion coefficient with increasing nanoparticle concentration. Initially,...

NaxFe1/2Mn1/2O2 has been identified as a potential cathode material for Na-ion batteries since it has comparable electrochemical performance to commercially available Li-ion...

We request 3 days on POLARIS to study the detailed crystal structure of a sodium battery cathode material that is currently under consideration for use in commercial sodium...

The aim of this proposal is to study the internal dynamics of a novel organometallic polymers based on two metal-containing moieties -Ru, Au- bridged through a tridentate...

Light metal amides and imides are a new class of highly active ammonia decomposition catalysts. Indeed, composites of lithium imide and transition metal nitrides are likely to...

This proposal is to measure the evolution of the magnetic structures of a series of iron oxide chalcogenides and compare the structures as a function of cation sizes and with...

Our aim is to determine whether the fast dynamics, of either the backbone or the phenyl ring of polystyrene, are altered by the presence of carbon nanotubes, and, if so, whether...

We request 3 days’ beam time on POLARIS for in-situ powder diffraction studies of the reactions of lithium amide or lithium imide with manganese(IV) oxide under flowing argon or...

We will investigate the structures of the high temperature (RT to 400K) phases of ammonium iodate, and the features that accompany these phase transitions. From our previous...
