Linking solvent structure to materials synthesis: Choline Chloride:Urea-Water...
In our recent work we have studied formation of nanostructured cerium oxides from the choline chloride:urea deep eutectic solvent (DES). We found that as water content in the... -
Understanding the structure of sodium laureth sulfate and cocamidopropyl beta...
The objective of this research is to understand the detailed structure of water-surfactant solutions as a function of concentration. This is important as these materials form... -
In situ investigation of templated polymerisation
Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) are a particularly interesting class of three dimensional crystalline networks formed by the self-assembly of metal ions with organic ligands.... -
Investigating the Structure of Porous Liquids
Porous liquids are a counter-intuitive new class of porous material consisting of a liquid with permanent, empty holes. They are unique in that they combine the fluidity of... -
Liquid-liquid immiscibility and glass transitions in aqueous solutions
The microscopic structure of a dilute solution of LiCl in water is determined at different thermodynamic states in both the liquid and glassy phases. This solution exhibits... -

Aggregation and miscibility of dimethylcarbonate in hydrocarbon fuel model
Green Lizard Technologies are undertaking performance trials with dimethylcarbonate as a blend component in diesel fuels to reduce carbon particulate emission. Here,... -
Interaction of trehalose and a model peptide
We propose to perform a NDIS experiments at the SANDALS diffractometer at T = 300 K on X samples of N-Methylacetamide, NMA, and trehalose at low water content, in the glassy... -
Scrutinizing the role of the counterion in the axial coordination of the Pd(I...
The solution chemistry of Pt(II) and Pd(II) cations has attracted experimental and theoretical attention because of their relevance in catalytic processes and the... -
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,... -
Low temperature studies of glycerol and aqueous glycerol
Glycerol, a sugar alcohol with three hydroxyl groups, is a rich and complex system for the study of hydrogen bonded fluids and has been the subject of long-standing scientific... -
Denitrogenation of fuel oils using hydrated choline chloride:malic acid DES
Deep Eutectic Solvents (DES) are complexes of organic salts and neutral hydrogen bond donors. They are tuneable, low volatility liquids that are environmentally benign.... -
Investigating the mechanisms for the in situ growth of metal oxide nanopartic...
Composites materials that combine the flexibility and mechanical robustness offered by polymers with the functionality displayed by metal oxide nanoparticles offer new insight... -
Gas condensation and fluid behaviour in nanoporous ZIF-8 materials upon gate...
This proposal aims to study condensation transitions in nanoporous flexible materials by means of wide Q-range neutron diffraction. We plan to perform an in-situ gas... -

Investigating an Anomaly in Quasielastic Neutron Scattering Measurements
An unexpected result with another neutron scattering technique has lead us to think that a substance we thought was in a pore throughout the experiment has moved into the pore... -
Adamantane in amorphous ice: A nanoprobe for detecting sintering, glass-trans...
Ice and carbon exist in vast quantities in our Universe. In fact, they often coexist, and form interfaces in highly diverse settings and environments. These include, for... -
The structure of solvents around 2d graphene oxide nanoparticles
Graphene oxide (GO) is an important starting material for developing chemically modified graphene for use in a variety of important technical applications that include... -
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... -
Atomic and pore structure of crystallizing zeolite precursors
We will investigate a series of aluminosilicate systems, zeolite chabazite, ZSM-5, Zeolite Y and Zeoltie A and determine the short and medium range order structures and the...
