Iron-Chromium is an ideal model system to improve the fundamental understanding of phase separation with vital engineering applications. For instance, ferritic and duplex...

An analogue of the popular surfactant AOT with isopropyl glycol tails (IG-AOT, Figure.1) has been recently designed as a co-surfactant for water-in-CO2 (w/c) systems: stable...

This proposal is centered on the preparation of nanoscale fibres prepared by electrospinning and is the focus of the final year PhD programme of Saeed Mohan. These experiments...

Products such as fabric and hair conditioners are commonly in the form of di-alkyl chain cationic lamellar phase dispersion. The effects of shear on such lamellar phase...

Small angle neutron scattering will be used to directly quantify the adsorption of lecithin at the interface between partially deuterated sucrose particles contrast-matched to a...

Our group has been working partially oxidized cellulose nanofibrils which form gels in aqueous formulations. Recently we have observed that these fibrils also gel when dialysed...

This proposal aims to understand how the structure of non-ionic surfactant micelles affects the amount of fungicides solubilised. SANS is a technique unique for unravelling the...

Conjugation of therapeutic proteins to polymers is well established but most methods result in multi-site and multiple conjugation, crosslinking resulting in lack of orientation...

This proposal is part of a research programme which is focused on nano-fibres prepared by electrospinning. The programme is centered on the spinning...

We have recently developed novel ternary lipopolyplex vectors (i.e. gene delivery vectors containing cationic lipid, plasmid DNA and a cationic peptide) in which, for the first...
