Interaction of the counteracting osmolytes TMAO and urea in aqueous solutions
TMAO is a naturally occurring protecting osmolyte which stabilizes proteins and influences intermolecular interactions. Like some other osmolytes it counteracts the effects of... -
Templating of titania films in cationic-anionic surfactant polymer solutions
In this proposal we wish to continue our recent work using polyelectrolyte-surfactant films as templates for inorganic structures, in this case titania.... -
Interactions between alkylmethacrylate modifed polymers and surfactant micelles
We have observed formation of polymer-surfactant films at the air interface having a range of structures, related to their solution interactions. The films form with... -
Ageing of Laponite-water solutions
We require beam time on NIMROD in order to complete and continue a previous experiment (RB1010046) on Laponite - water suspensions. We have succesfully performed the experiment... -
Probing the structure of polymeric foams on SANS2d ?
Polyurethane foams (PUFs) are commonly prepared by mixing Pluronic type copolymers and isocyanate reactive monomers in the presence of additives e.g. catalysts, blowing agent... -
Study of macromolecular configuration of P3HT and P3HS in solution by SANS me...
The possibility of low-cost roll to roll fabrication procedures of organic solar cells using poly-3-hexyl-thiophene (P3OT) solutions has attracted intensive research in order to... -
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... -

Nanostructure definition in electrospun fibres of polymer blends
This proposal is part of a research programme which is focused on nano-fibres prepared by electrospinning. The programme is centered on the spinning... -
Structural investigations of low-temperature "trapped solutions" of C60 fulle...
We propose a series of neutron scattering measurement to determine the water structure in amorphous H2O/C60 fullerene vapour deposits. We believe that these samples, prepared by... -
Formulating polymer solutions to stabilise polymeric foams
Polyurethane foams (PUFs) are commonly prepared by mixing Pluronic type copolymers and isocyanate reactive monomers in the presence of additives e.g. catalysts, blowing agent... -
Polymer-surfactant films containing glucose sensors
This proposal continues our research on mesostructured surfactant templated polymer films that form spontaneously at the air-water interface. Our recent research has shown it is...
