Structural behaviour of zinc in low phosphate content glasses for bone cements
Bone cements are an important class of biomaterial used in hard tissue surgery as well as periodontology. Many of these are glass-ionomer cements formed from an aluminosilicate... -
Disorder in substituted beta-tricalcium phosphate for waste immobilisation
We have a long established interest in the materials used for the immobilisation of nuclear waste from the domestic power industry and legacy waste from various defence... -
Cation environment and the tellurite anomaly
We have recently shown that the anomalous behaviour of the Te-O coordination number, nTeO, for binary tellurite glasses is related to the presence of terminal Te=O bonds in... -
Structure of a clathrate hydrate inhibitor in water
Gas hydrates (crystalline inclusion compounds of water and small hydrocarbons) present a very real challenge to the petrochemical industry. In uninhibited systems gas hydrates... -
Structures of New Oxides from Total Scattering
Our objective is to determine accurate structural models for some novel oxide materials that we have recently prepared using new synthesis approaches, each of which is formed as... -
Atomic structure of ternary tin phosphate glasses
Tin phosphate glasses are the alternative as lead-free glasses with zero photoeleastic constant (PEC) for fibers that are used in sensors of electric current. Since the binary... -
Cation environments in lead-free glasses
BaO+ZnO containing glasses are being studied as an alternative to lead-based glasses because they exhibit excellent dielectric, thermal, optical and crystallisation properties.... -
Interaction of a small protein with water and other solutes: The case of Glut...
The tripeptide glutathione (GSH) is present in cells at millimolar concentrations, and the ratio of GSH to glutathione disulfide (GSSG) is critical to cellular redox balance.... -
Mixed alkali environment in chalcohalide glasses for optical applications
Heavy alkali halide sulphide and selenide glasses are promising hosts for active and passive optical devices. Lithium and sodium chalcohalide glasses exhibit high ionic... -
Neutron diffraction of amorphous calcium carbonate
Amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC) is regularly listed as one of the known calcium carbonate phases, first being identified in 1984. Although ACC is inherently unstable, it is a... -
