Aromatic/aliphatic binary mixtures in a porous substrate studied by total neu...
Confined liquids are an important subject of research in many areas, such as geology, biology, food and drug preservation, and heterogeneous catalysis. These liquids can have... -
Structure of polyaromatic hydrocarbons in solution
Polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are small disk shaped molecules that are important to a number of active research areas. These include natural systems, such as asphaltenes, the... -
Structural determination of SMA-lipid particles in solution
The development of styrene-maleic acid lipid particles (SMALP) is opening the door to better understanding the nature of membrane proteins, these particles have been well... -
Morphology of poly(ethylene-oxide)-ionic liquid mixtures: the role of hydroge...
We propose to explore the morphology of binary mixtures of poly(ethylene oxide), a biomimetic macromolecule, and two different ionic liquids, differing in their hydrogen bonding... -
Understanding the Two Step Decomposition of Milled Magnesium Hydride by Neutr...
When MgH2 is processed under relatively mild milling conditions it exhibits a two-step thermal decomposition process where loss of hydrogen is associated with each endothermic... -
The Structure of Olefin Methanol Solutions
We request beam-time for high-resolution neutron diffraction in conjunction with hydrogen/deuterium isotopic labelling and EPSR analysis to probe the detailed 3-dimensional... -

Study of the reorganization of DES upon dilution with Benzylalcohol
Nanoporous carbons are of great importance for development of energy storage and gas adsorption devices. The critical parameter is pore size and it is difficult to predict. Our... -
Liquid Structure of Amino Acid Ionic Liquids Based on a Spectator Cation
Ionic liquids based on biocompatible ions such as amino acids are of significant interest since they offer access to a lower-cost and lower-toxicity family of green solvents for... -
Local ordering of DMF solvents around graphitic carbon nitride nanoparticles.
When materials are dissolved in solvents the solvent can become ordered around the solute, usually considered to be an ion that is a single atomic ion or a molecular ion. For... -
Structure of myoglobin-sugar-water systems
This proposal is a continuation of our previous experiment on NIMROD (Rb 1520094), where we studied aqueous solutions of trehalose (33 wt% trehalose) as well as myoglobin in the... -
Liquid Nanostructure and Amphiphile Self-Assembly in pre-Ouzo Ternary Mixtures
Ionic liquids (ILs) - salts that melt near room temperature - have remarkable properties as solvents for a wide variety of molecules and ions. ILs share with water the rare... -
The structure of biomimetic helices in aqueous solutions
Protein secondary structure, in particular alpha-helical structure, is essential for a variety of functions in nature. These structures are integral to such biophysical... -
Structure determination of solution aggregation of single alkyl chain PC surf...
We have synthesised alkyl phosphorylcholine (CnPC) surfactants in hydrogenated and deuterated form and have determined their solution aggregation using SANS. In this part of... -
