Thin Water Layers
The aim of this proposal is to determine the thickness of a water layer surrounding colloidal particles dispersed in oil with changes in ionic strength. Recent work by our group... -
Copy of: IINS Study of the Molecular Properties of Hydrogen Peroxide/Water Mi...
Hydrogen Peroxide is one of the cleanest, most versatile strategic base chemicals available. It is used at the large scale as oxidising agent in the chemical industry, as a... -
Micropore Collapse in Bulk Amorphous Solid Water
We propose to study the influence of deposition rates and annealing effects on microporous amorphous solid water samples (ASW) using NIMROD. The data will allow us to monitor... -
The Dynamics of Water in Hydrous Micas
The study of the interaction mechanisms between water and layered silicates is central to the evaluation of the physicochemical properties of these materials, and it is an... -

Neutron Reflectivity Study of Protein Adsorption onto Cell Membrane-inspired ...
We grafted 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine (MPC) polymer brush from the silicon wafer surface through Cu (0) mediated controlled radical polymerization (CuCRP) to mimic... -
Interfacial Structure of Colloidal Dispersions - the air/latex interface
Adsorption of colloidal particles to an interface is of fundamental interest in understanding wetting, capillarity and colloidal forces as well as being of practical importance... -
Investigation of Water Diffusion Process of Hyaluronic Acid based Stimuli Res...
Hybrid hyaluronic acid (HA)/poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) [p(NiPAAm)] hydrogels undergo a volume phase transition as a function of temperature. Their swelling state depends also... -
Does spinodal dewetting proceed by peristalsis?
We shall demonstrate the use of neutron reflectometry to obtain three-dimensional structures in a non-invasive experiment. Spinodal dewetting is one of the few areas where... -
Effect of Concentration Charge and Ionic Strength on Adsorption of Small Part...
Despite the wide practical interest in particulate colloids there have been few studies that exploit the advantages of reflection and neutron scattering to study adsorption of... -
Interfacial structures and competitive adsorption of amphiphilic polymers wit...
Foam stability, appearance and functionality is governed by the thin liquid films between foam bubbles. These films are stabilised by surface active molecules (surfactants and... -
INS studies with MAPS of Nafion and model compounds
In the archetypal hydrogenoxygen proton exchange membrane fuel cell design, a proton-conducting polymer membrane (typically Nafion) contains the electrolyte solution that... -
Metastable Water Ice and Nitric Acid ¿ observing the phase changes
The IPCC report 2007 underlines the particular importance of aerosol particles for the water cycle and the radiation balance, and thus for the global climate. In Cirrus clouds... -
Neutron Scattering, Agricultural Wastes, Concrete & Water mobility: What can ...
In recent years, the research related to agricultural wastes aiming to evaluate their potential for recycling as well as the elimination of the landfills increased dramatically.... -
Fluorocarbon/ Hydrocarbon Mixed surfactant monolayers for fire-fighting appli...
The aim is to use Neutron Reflectivity (NR) to gain essential information on the adsorption properties of fluorocarbon (FC)/ hydrocarbon (HC) mixtures in commercial... -
Continuation: Metastable Water Ice and Nitric Acid ¿ observing the phase changes
Nitric acid plays important roles in the atmosphere, in all aggregate states and combined with water.During the last periode we were running the proposal RB1110207 "Metastable... -
Nanoparticle-surfactant layers at the water-oil interface
The spontaneous selfassembly of nanoparticles (NP) at liquid-liquid interfaces is a phenomenon present in nature and relevant for many applications, such as, emulsion... -

We shall demonstrate the use of neutron reflectometry to obtain three-dimensional structures in a non-invasive experiment. Spinodal dewetting is one of the few areas where... -
Vibrational dynamics of water confined inside hydrophilic and hydrophobic nan...
Compared to carbon nanotubes, metal-oxide imogolite nanotubes (INT), with nominal composition (OH)3Al2O3SixGe1-x(OH), have the peculiarity to have a perfectly defined diameter D... -
Interaction of the nucleic acid, DNA, with a model biomembranes of varying ri...
In this experiment we aim to investigate, using neutron reflectometry in combination with contrast variation, the intermolecular interaction between the nucleic acid, calf...
