Can SANS confirm whether dimensions from microscopy of dried gels are represe...
Characterisation of structures formed within hydrogels is an important part of understanding their properties and how they can be used in real world applications. The real space... -
Metallomicroemulsions - a new class of supramolecularly organised metal ions
Incorporation of d- or f-block metals into ligand systems that renders a metal complex surface active or drives its partitioning into surfactant phases enables the localisation... -
Structure of aggregation of peptide surfactants: effect of the size of amino ...
Peptide surfactants are a group of interesting biomimetic amphiphiles capable of forming a range of nanostructures. The aim of this work is to use SANS to determine the... -
Co-micellization of hydrotropes and surfactants
This proposal builds on recent work with hydrotropes alone (Langmuir, 2011, 27, 12346-12353); now co-micellisation of hydrotropes with surfactants will be investigated. The aim... -
Study of self-organization of cationic pH- and thermo responsive copolymers w...
The aim of our work is to study structural properties of supra-molecular assemblies formed in aqueous solutions of cationic pH- and thermo-sensitive block-gradient copolymers... -
Assembly Mechanism of Fibrous Gemini Surfactant Gels
Building from experimental kinetic work already carried out, we will investigate the initial steps in the assembly mechanism of gemini surfactants that form fibrous gels in... -
Phase diagram of LAS molecule: SANS investigation into surfactant and lipid m...
This proposal would like SANS time to better understand the LAS phase diagram. This has been prompted by recent experiments which show the system is not fully understood under... -

Interaction of polypeptides with surfactants: aqueous solution aggregation
This proposal constitutes part of our ongoing study towards understanding how collagen based polypeptides interact with ionic surfactants using SANS. Both SDS and C12TAB will be... -
Investigation of zwitterionic surfactant, Ca2+ and bio-polymer interactions
We are currently investigating the formation and structure of surfactant-templated polymer films comprised of cat-anionic surfactant mixtures and a variety of polymers. As we... -
Assembly of supramolecular nanotubes into tubisome structures from self-assem...
Cyclic peptide-polymer conjugates can readily self-assembly into long nanotubes, and are being extensively studied for biomedical applications. Recently, we have conjugated a... -
Interactions of Surfactant Mixtures with Phospholipid Vesicles: the Influence...
Surfactants have been widely used in cosmetics, detergents and pharmaceutical industries. These applications are always accompanied by surfactant-induced skin irritation which... -
SANS Studies of Radiation-grafted Anion-exchange Membranes with Different Gra...
We request one days beam time on SANS2D for the study of hydrated, radiation-grafted anion-exchange membranes synthesised with different grafting times. These materials are... -
Self-assembling behaviour of N-acyl amino acid-based surfactants
N-acyl amino acids are surfactants with attractive applications in different technological fields. They are referred to as mild surfactants because they are commonly considered... -
Using contrast matching to understand the networks in multicomponent systems
We have been focusing on two component gel networks. Here, both components can individually form gels. In a mixed system, the LMWG can either co-assemble or self-sort. In a... -
