Copy of: An Investigation of Interfacial Structure of Pluronics at Solid-Liqu...
Tri-block copolymers offer an excellent model system for the study of crystallization in the bulk as well as close to interfaces. It is known that the structures formed by this... -
Polymer layer structure in stabilised metal nanoparticles for heterogenous ca...
The controlled synthesis of precious metal nanoparticles of the appriopriate chemical composition, optimised size and morphology for use in catalysis is an ongoing experimental... -
Conformational behaviour of amphiphilic polymethacrylate-poly(acrylic acid) c...
We shall use SANS to investigate the conformational behaviour of a range of amphiphilic copolymers with varying architectures: graft, hyperbranched block, hyperbranched random,... -
New CO2-philic surfactants
The proposal aims to explore water-in-CO2 (w/c) microemulsions with new, very promising hydrocarbon surfactants. The compounds are generated using standard chemistry1 but with... -
Neutron transmission strain tomography: a novel approach to strain mapping
Strain tomography is a novel approach to the analysis of residual strain fields that involves deconvolution of unknown distributions of residual elastic strains from redundant... -
Magnetic hysteresis loops in off-specular scattering
Reflectometry is a technique that is capable of vector magnetometry. By selecting the appropriate valves of Q we could access the different forms of magnetic disorder, either... -
Aggregation behaviour of aqueous hairy rod conjugated polyelectrolyte/surfact...
Small angle neutron scattering (SANS) will be used to characterise the structures of aggregates formed between the anionic conjugated polyelectrolyte... -
Responsive polymer brushes grafted from gold nanoparticles: interaction with ...
We will use SANS to characterize dispersions of gold nanoparticles functionalized with poly(dimethyl aminoethyl methacrylate) brushes grafted from 25 nm gold nanoparticle... -
Temperature-dependent structural behaviour of the collapse transition of high...
We shall use small angle neutron scattering to investigate the structural behaviour of the temperature sensitive highly branched poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide) [PNIPAM]. These... -

Magnetic study of the new skyrmion-carrying material CoZnMn
Nanoscale magnetic skyrmions are swirl-like magnetisation entities that satisfy topological quantisation conditions. They can therefore not be easily unwound into another... -
Investigating a Dextrin-Phospholipase A2 Conjugate as a Trigger for Polymer E...
Recent research has demonstrated the potential of nanosized delivery systems for routine use in many diseases, eg cancer, viral diseases and rheumatoid arthritis [1,2], due to... -
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... -
Tuning the Magnetic Properties of γ-Fe2O3 Fe3O4 Thin Films for Atom Tr...
In this work we will investigate how the magnetic properties of nanometer thick iron-oxide films can be manipulated by heating them in air. Our preliminary results indicate that... -
Phase Separation in Organic Photovoltaic Cells
Organic photovoltaic (OPV) cells have the potential to be the basis of a renewable energy source that is inexpensive and portable. Current state-of-the-art solution-processed... -
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... -
Mesophase transition induced by nanoparticles
In a previous SAXS experiment at Max-Lab (Sweden) we observed that the thermotropic mesophase transitional behaviour of the monoolein(MO):cholesterol:water system was... -
The effects of molecular weight on the structure of non-covalent polymer ther...
Polymer therapeutic describes polymeric drugs, polymer-drug conjugates, polymer-protein conjugates, polymeric micelles to which drug is covalently bound, and multicomponent... -
The effect of anionic lipid unsaturation on the interaction with cytochrome c
While peripheral membrane protein-lipid interactions were originally considered to be solely electrostatic in nature, it is now accepted that they encompass more complicated,... -
Solution structures of the immunologically important proteins IgG and C3b
IgG antibody represents one-third of new drugs currently in development. We will unravel the solution structures of the Fab and Fc fragments within IgG. Following our earlier...
