Vanadiumcarbide-precipitation kinetics in NANO-steels
Nano-steels are a new generation of Advanced High Strength Steels (AHSS), extremely suitable for lightweight automotive applications. The matrix of the steel, which provides... -
Self-assembly of Polyoxometallate Surfactants in Aqueous Solutions
Polyoxometallates (POM) are well defined transition metal clusters with a range of interesting catalytic, magnetic and optical properties. To make efficient use of these... -
Dynamics of PDMS-g-PDMS bottlebrush polymers
Bottlebrush polymers, backbone with long side chains, are very interesting regarding their architecture, which is different from well known linear polymers. Not only the... -

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... -
SANS studies of Amphotec (aggregates of amphotericin-cholesteryl sulfate)
The anti-fungal agent amphotericin B (AmB) can be administered to patients in aqueous solution complexed with cholesteryl sulfate (CS), and this formulation helps to minimise... -
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... -
Surfactant mixtures including a newly designed N-oxide
The applications of surfactant formulations based on N,N dimethylalkylamine oxides (AO) are dramatically increasing. The most widely used AO is the N,N-dimethyldodecyl-1-amine... -
An In-Situ Study of the Formation of Amyloid Fibrils at Polymer Surfaces Usin...
We propose to study the formation of lateral features during insulin amyloid formation on polymer substrates using off-specular neutron reflectivity. This will be done by... -
SANS study of the effect of thermal annealing on the morphology of bulk heter...
This projects aims to contribute to a better understanding of the relationship between processing conditions, active layer morphology and device performance in polymer solar... -
Revealing the Structure behind the Synergistic Phase Behavior of the Ternary ...
The aim of this collaborative proposal is to unravel micro- and nano-structures underlying unusually high solution viscosities from mixed surfactant systems. SANS is a unique... -
Electrolyte induced self-assembly of methyl ester sulphonate surfactants
The addition of multivalent counterions (Al3+, Mg2+) induces multilayer adsorption of ionic surfactants at interfaces. It is associated with strong wetting conditions, invoking... -
Chiral recognition by asymmetric micelles: a possible novel asymmetric separa...
We plan to study the size and shape of bare and L or D serine-containing (1R,2S)‐dodecyl (2‐hydroxy‐1‐methyl‐2‐phenylethyl) dimethylammonium... -
Optimising graphene-philic surfactants as effective stabilizer for graphene p...
Graphene has been touted as a material of everything, but for all its promise it does have some drawbacks, especially in its poor dispersibility and instability in water (and... -
Co-surfactancy of oil-soluble and water-soluble surfactants in emulsion stabi...
The structures of emulsions formed from mixed oil-soluble and water-soluble amphiphiles (respectively derivatives of polyisobutylene, PIBSA, and polyacrylamide, PAM) will be... -
Controlling the morphology of bulk heterojunction (BHJ) films using mixtures ...
Through a combination of small angle neutron scattering, ion-beam analysis and ellipsometry we have recently demonstrated that in organic photovoltaic devices (OPVs) the... -
SESANS study of phase segregation in microemulsion polymerisations
Spin echo small-angle neutron scattering (SESANS) beamtime is requested to study the growth of polymer nanolatices in novel microemulsion systems. The natural incompatibility of... -
Contrast variation SANS to understand drug directed assembly of multi lamella...
Recurring infection following dental interventions such as fillings is the most common reason for failure, leading to further treatments including root canal therapy, where the... -
Fire-fighting surfactants: aggregation and micellar composition
The aim is to probe micellar structures of three common industrial fluorotelomer surfactants used in fire-fighting foam formulations (Figure 1) using contrast variation SANS.... -
