Pre-aggregation of 3-hydroxybenzoic acid in solution
The pharmaceutical intermediate 3-hydroxybenzoic acid (MHBA) is reported to crystallise in two polymorphs. The stable one is obtained by evaporation from methanol solution,... -
Using polymer / surfactant mixtures to optimise / enhance perfume delivery to...
This proposal is part of a funded (CASE) project, aimed at understanding the delivery of benefit actives (perfumes) to interfaces and the development of new self-assembled... -

Hydrogenation of frustrated Lewis pairs in solution
It has been postulated that 'Frustrated Lewis Pairs' react after associating in an encounter complex held by dispersion forces, and that is it is this complex that interacts,... -
Surface properties of biogenic polyaminesurfactant mixtures
Polyions and biogenic polyamine are ubiquitous in many important biochemical functions. We propose here to use neutron reflectivity to investigate their potential to induce and... -
Study of quadrupolar interactions in aromatic liquids: Benzene, hexafluoroben...
The non-covalent interactions between aromatic rings are of fundamental importance in large number biological and chemical processes. Examples include protein tertiary... -
The microscopic structure of the acetone - chloroform azeotrope
The acetone - chloroform system is the classic textbook example of a negative-pressure azeotrope, i.e. the vapour pressures of the binary mixtures are lower than expected for... -
When like-charged ions attract: Size and distribution of cationic clusters in...
Contrary to the strong electrostatic repulsion between like charged ions, last year the Ludwig group, used IR and NMR spectroscopy combined with computational methods, to reveal... -
Solvation structure of propane/propene in [C4mim][NTf2] ionic liquid
Supported ionic liquid membranes offer potentially lower-energy alternatives to cryogenic distillation for the separation and isolation of light gas olefins (ethene and propene)... -
Linking solvent structure to materials synthesis: Choline Chloride:Urea-Water...
Deep Eutectic Solvents (DES) are formed by complexing appropriate organic salts and neutral hydrogen bond donor species to produce chemically tuneable, low volatility liquids... -
Nanostructure of a New Class of Deep Eutectic Solvents Derived from Protic Io...
In earlier SANDALS investigations we have shown that protic ionic liquids (PILs) are nanostructured in the bulk, and how dissolved inorganic salts and small molecule solvents... -
Understanding Sulphur and Nitrogen-Aromatic interactions from liquid structure
Asphaltenes are a complex and problematic fraction of crude oil that can precipitate, alter wettability and stabilise unwanted oil-in-water emulsions. Asphaltenes have a high... -
Deep Eutectic Solvents: Metal Ion Dissolution
Deep Eutectic Solvents (DES) are molecular mixtures similar to ionic liquids, having melting points below room temperature. However instead of being composed of a salt, the... -
Local structure and clustering in acetic acid/pyridine mixtures
The aim of this proposed work is to complete our study of the behaviour of acetic acid/pyridine mixtures as a functionof composition, in order to fully characterise the changes... -
Hydration of NMA
We propose to study the hydration of N-methylacetamide (NMA) at ambient conditions and at two concentrations, namely 1 NMA : 50 H2O and 1 NMA : 15 H2O, by applying the isotopic... -
Why are choline arginate / choline lysinate mixtures more effective for the p...
We have recently discovered that certain mixtures of the ionic liquids (ILs) cholinium argininate (Ch[Arg]) and cholinium lysinate (Ch[Lys]) are ~ 20% more efficient for the... -
Structure of chain-grafted silica nanoparticles
The aim of the proposed experiment is to carry out a series of SANS measurements on chain-grafted silica nanoparticles prepared in our laboratory. In this experiment we plan to... -
Understanding the nature of perfume / surfactant interactions at interfaces
This proposal is part of a funded (CASE) project, aimed at understanding the delivery of benefit actives (perfumes) to interfaces and the development of new self-assembled...
