Following our very recent work on the dynamic co-adsorption of our control antibody COE-3 and nonionic surfactant PS80-7EO from the mixed solution, We request 3 days of Inter...

This project will investigate the physical aspects of improving the fatigue performance (strength) of high-strength steel welded joints, such as for the use in construction...

Complement comprises key proteins in innate immunity that forms a major defence and clearance system in blood. CFH is the major regulator of active C3b formed from C3. C3d is a...

Amino acid based surfactants have been known for many years, but so far few detailed studies have been carried out on their properties. We are using amino acids extracted from...

We request 4 days of beam-time on ENGIN-X to measure the elastic behaviour of polycrystalline samples of gypsum, antigorite, and talc as a function of uniaxial load. All three...

We wish to investigate the structural changes which arise when B2O3 is added to a bioactive phosphate glass. We are particularly interested to study the phosphate environment...

Summary. Silicatein in marine sponges catalyses the condensation of silica but the mechanism of layer-by-layer growth of the silica spicule is unknown since sufficient...

The proposed experiment involves measurement of the structural changes during the ferroelectric rhombohedral to antiferroelectric orthorhombic phase transformation in PZT...

This proposal follows on from our successful experiment on ENGIN-X lin 2006, where we measured the development of strains in the aluminium and silicon phases of a common casting...

Silica glass is one of the most widely studies amorphous materials. It is the archetypal glass former, comprising a network of corner-shared SiO4 tetrahedra. Recently a lot of...

Here we propose to investigate the excitation spectrum of the new spin-ladder compound MgCu2O3. Unlike typical spin-ladders this compound has a rung coupling that is much weaker...

Twinning is an important deformation mechanism in hcp metals like Zirconium. It is now accepted that, unless twinning is accounted for, the typical deformation textures in these...

The interfacial self-assembly between large (polymer) and small (peptide) molecules of opposite charge results in the formation of highly organized membranes. Furhter...

The extreme quantum nature of muons and muonium in condensed matter is the result of having a mass that is nine times lighter than that of a hydrogen atom. While this quantum...

We propose to perform neutron powder diffraction experiments on the frustrated triangular lattice anitferromagnet AgFe1-xAlxO2 on WISH. Recently, we have studied magnetic...

The proposal aims to explore the oil-in-water (brine) high internal phase emulsion systems (HIPEs) formed by nonylphenol ethoxylate surfactants using contrast variation SANS...

Single crystal, bulk Si1-xGex alloys are available across the alloy composition range, and provide opportunity for study of alloy properties in transition between the two...

Unlike casting, Selective Laser Melting (SLM) powder bed system can be applied to build near-netshape components with complex geometries in a short lead time. Recently, SLM...

Recently we did muon spin relaxation (µSR) and inelastic neutron scattering (INS) measurements on the newly discovered tertragonal Ce-based ferromagnet CeRu2M2B (M = Al and Ga)...

The perovskite BiFeO3 has received considerable attention over the years due to its unique ferroelectric and multiferroic properties at room temperature. It has been reported...
