The hydroxides Me(OH)2 of the bivalent transition metals Co, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Cd and Zn play critical roles as sorbents, catalysts or reductants in many environmental and... -
Ozonation of organic films at the air-water interface of atmospheric aerosol
The Earth¿s climate is strongly influenced by atmospheric aerosols. Organic surfactant films on these aerosols influences their size, optical properties and ability to act as... -
INS STUDY OF BIOCHAR AS SOLID ACID CATALYSTS
Pyrolysis is considered as a sustainable way to generate energy from bio-oil, however, biochar – a solid residue by-product– is inevitably produced in the production line. We... -
Structure of oil-in-water microemulsions containing eutectic mixtures of ment...
Although microemulsions have been widely investigated as potential drug delivery vehicles, relatively little work has been performed establishing the detailed molecular... -

We are proposing 4 days of beamtime on GEM to conduct the experiment on 10 alloy nanoparticles; PdxRu1-x (x = 0, 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 0.9, 1) and PdRuM (M = Rh, Pt, Ir). We have... -
Local ordering in the pressure-induced order-disorder transition in ammonium ...
Ammonium bromide undergoes a pressure-induced order-disorder transition, where the disordered (plastic) phase is thought to consist of a random distribution of ammonium cations... -
Neutron Total Scattering Investigation of LaCoxMn1-xO3 Perovskites
The perovskite structure with general formula ABX3 describes many hundreds (if not thousands) of materials. Many have interesting and technologically important properties. The... -
The quest for fully hydrogen-ordered ice XIV
Water ice displays a remarkably complex phase diagram containing pairs of hydrogen-ordered / disordered phases. Ice XII is a hydrogen-disordered phase and ice XIV is its... -
