Hydration of Guanosine, G-quartets and G-quadruplex
Guanosine (GMP) is the ideal brick for controlled self-assembly of biocompatible materials, as it has the ability to self-associate in water to form G-quartets (G4), and four... -
Neutron diffraction studies of nano-diamond particles
Nano-diamond particles are synthesised by detonation of TNT and Hexogen, resulting in a shockwave which produces diamond nanoparticles with an average size of around 5 nm,... -
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... -
Local and long-range ordering in concentrated nanotube solutions
Manipulating nanoparticles in liquids is crucial for their scalable implementation in future technologies. For example, such liquids can be used like paint to create uniform... -
Glycerol Carbonate
Glycerol carbonate has potential to become one of the most important sustainable chemical intermediates of the future. It has imprtant uses as a solvent, as a chemical, and as a... -
Anhydrobiosis at the atomic scale: protein folding at low water content
Anhydrobiosis, the possibility of life in almost no water, is a puzzling phenomena common to a wide class of organisms, ranging from plant seeds to crustacean cysts, that can... -

Supercritical (sc) fluids have unique properties that have led to a rich variety of applications including production of essential oils and pharmaceutical products, green... -
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... -
Hydration of Guanosine, G-quartets and G-quadruplex
Guanosine (GMP) is the ideal brick for controlled self-assembly of biocompatible materials, as it has the special ability to self-associate in water to form G-quartets (G4), and... -
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... -
PDF Analysis of a new oxide ion conductor
Preliminary investigations have shown that Sr1.8Na0.2MgSi2O7-d, belonging to the melilite family of oxide, is a potential new oxide ion conductor. The aim of this experiment is... -
How is the nanoscale structure of Amorphous Solid Water (ASW) impacted by the...
This experiment will determine how the structure and porosity of Amorphous Solid Water (ASW) changes when the ice is contaminated by adsorbate molecules. ASW is a porous... -
Role of DMSO in Ionic Liquid / DMSO Mixtures
This proposal aims to study the interactions within a prototypical ionic liquid / co-solvent system. Such systems are currently under investigation as potential solvating media...
