Protein-Ionic liquid interactions: A window into future sustainable processin...
Processing of complex biopolymers, particularly proteins such as keratin and silk, has been hindered by the extremely low solubility and thus accessibility to the protein... -
Influence of chemical composition on the macroscopic properties of industrial...
Our previous proposals on ceramic glazes were rejected due to the high number of chemical components listed in the proposed (industrially typical) samples. Unfortunately the... -
Magnetic order in the first hybrid layered fluoroperovskites
Layered perovskites are well known functional materials but, in the context of fluoride chemistry, have so far been restricted to purely inorganic examples: K2NiF4 is the... -
Structural Studies of Umbite-related Ion Exchange Materials
The aim of this research is to determine structural systematics of a series of materials with compositions and structures related to the mineral umbite (K2ZrSi3O9·H2O) and some... -
The quest for attractive divalent sulfur - oxygen interactions
Weak nonbonded interactions between a divalent sulfur and an oxygen atom have attracted growing interest because of their roles in determining the structure and the biological... -
The Ability of Trimethylamine N-Oxide to Resist Pressure Induced Structural P...
Trimethylamine N-Oxide (TMAO) is thought to have the extraordinary ability of allowing organisms to adapt to extreme environments of high pressure, the most famous example being... -

This work will study the structure a new lithium-based electrolyte produced using 1,2,3-trimethoxypropane, a bioderived low-toxicity green solvent, as a first stage towards the... -
Quantum Spin Ice ground states and Structural Disorder in non-Kramers rare-ea...
Pyrochlore oxides based on non-Kramers rare-earth ions, such as Pr3+ and Tb3+, are candidate materials for the formation of the Quantum Spin Ice. However, structural disorder is... -
Surface activity of fluoroblock copolymers in model marine coatings
Marine coatings are commonly based on silicone polymers, which have a low surface energy and a degree of deformability which contribute to release of marine fouling species. Low... -
Neutron diffraction of amorphous iron sulfates (AFS)
Amorphous iron sulfate pentahydrate has been identified as one of the iron sulfates found on the Martian surface during the Spirit and Opportunity Rover missions in recent... -
The structure of paraquat in solution and in clay gels
This experiment will use high resolution neutron diffraction to determine for the first time thesolvation structure of the pesticide paraquat in bulk aqueous solution and in the... -
A Structural Study of Zinc Tellurite Glasses.
We wish to better understand the influence of a common modifier in optical tellurite glasses, zinc. The aim is to relate structural changes in zinc tellurite glasses with the... -
Investigating the Structure of the Fe-BTC MOF
Metalorganic frameworks (MOFs) are highly porous 3D materials, composed of metal clusters connected via organic linkers. Crystallinity is believed to be a prerequisite for gas... -
Atomic structure of mercury chalcohalide glasses
Optical applications of chalcogenide glasses need a wide transparency window in far IR. Promising glass systems include HgI2. We have synthesised three vitreous systems... -
