INS Study of Deep Eutectic Solvents
Deep Eutectic Solvents (DESs) are emerging as low-cost and environment-friendly solvents for industrial process. DESs are formed by the association of a hydrogen bond-capable... -
Alcohols in Cationic Surfactant Micelle Solutions
This proposal continues our studies of water and small molecule binding around surfactant micelles using NIMROD, to obtain previously inaccessible details of their molecular... -
Insertion of antimicrobial peptides into phospholipid monolayers at air/liqui...
We have designed a series of cationic peptides with different helix repeats that can kill bacteria but remain benign to mammalian host cells. The selectivity to cell types is... -
A Study of AuMu^+ Final States by Dia RF Resonance
Small-sized metal nanoparticles (NPs) are of long standing interest to both magnetism and heterogeneous catalysis. Recent muSR studies of Au NPs encapsulated in mesoporous... -
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... -
Spin dynamics in the Tomonaga-Luttinger Liquid (TLL) State appeared in the Su...
The TLL phase is a quantum spin condensed state in the one-dimensional system. In the case of DIMPY system which is a quasi-one-dimensional organic magnet, the TLL phase is... -
Arrested states of clay-water suspensions
The unprecedented simultaneous accessibility of the low and high Q region available on NIMROD allows to tackle the issue of ageing of colloidal systems from the point of view of... -
Neutron diffraction study on the lattice structure of rare-earth chalcogenide...
The frustrated quantum magnets have attracted a lot of attention with the ability of hosting the exotic quantum spin states. It has been believed that the degenerate ground... -

Macrocyclic ligands at the oil-water interface
Azacrown ethers and a mixture of azacrown ethers and fatty acids have been studied at the oil-water interface using surface-pressure isotherms and other classical surface... -
SANS Study of the interaction of model wax alcohols with non-ionic surfactant...
The understanding of the plant wax-surfactant interaction process is crucial to the development of more effective pesticide and fungicide formulations, essential for improving... -
Interactions between lipoprotein particles from human serum and model blood v...
In westernised societies, atherosclerosis and its clinical consequences such as heart disease and stroke constitute the leading cause of death. Thus, the prevention or... -
Adsorption of surfactants used in fire-fighting foams
The aim is to use Neutron Reflectivity (NR) to gain essential information on adsorption properties of practical fluorotelomer surfactants used in fire-fighting foam formulations... -
Lipid monolayers at oil/water interfaces at high surface pressure as model bi...

Vibrational Densities of States from Amorphous Nanocomposites for Novel Drug ...
In the current proposal, we require TOSCA to investigate by vibrational spectroscopy the apparent amorphous nature of the prototype drug molecule ibuprofen confined by... -
Nanoparticle-surfactant layers at the water-oil interface
The spontaneous selfassembly of nanoparticles (NP) at liquid-liquid interfaces is a phenomenon present in nature and relevant for many applications, such as, emulsion... -
Effect of Nucleating Agents on Phase Behavior in thin film bulk heterojunctio...
Neutron reflection will be used to investigate the normal composition profile in thin films of blends of electron-donor poly(alkyl thiophene) and the electron-acceptor... -
