A Total Scattering Investigation of the Intermolecular Interactions in Low Aq...
Low bioavailability is a major problem in drug formulation development; low aqueous solubility of an active pharmaceutical ingredient can stall development of a potentially... -
Influence of Zn and Ca on the local structure of silico-aluminate glasses
Glasses used as glazes for ceramic bodies will be studied as a function of their composition, with emphasis on two elements, such as Ca and Zn, that show the largest influence... -
Structural change of Ni-Zr amorphous alloy due to the deuterium absorption
It is well known that Ni-Zr amorphous alloys are highly resistant to pulverization due to the repetition of the hydrogen absorption and desorption unlike Ni-Zr crystalline... -
Hydration and sweetness of synthetic sweeteners
Recently, the degree of sweetness of natural sugars has been associated and correlated to their hydration shell (strength, orientation and length of their hydrogen bonds with... -
The structure of metal-ammonia Ogg glasses
In this application we will conduct the first detailed study of the structure of glassy metal-ammonia systems ? so-called Ogg glasses, named after the person who first proposed... -
Fragile to strong transition in concentrated sorbitol-water solutions
In a recent paper [J. Phys. Chem. B, 2016, 120 (29), pp 72897296] we have put forward the idea that water in concentrated (70 wt%) sorbitol-water solutions becomes confined by... -
Solution Study of the Interaction of Salt Species at Varying Concentrations
6 days on Nimrod are requested to collect neutron total scattering data of 1M, 2M and 3M solutions of a α,ω-dicarboxylic acid, glutaric acid, and 2-methylimidazole... -
Speciation and complex-ion formation in protic ionic liquids
A broad fundamental understanding of the design and properties of ionic liquids underpins their developing and future applications, which include accessing cellulosic polymers... -
Structure of High Density and Low Density solid water
The hypothetical connection between liquid water and the two liquid phases: Low Density Liquid (LDL) and High Density Liquid (HDL) has been difficult to prove experimentally... -
Association and liquid structure of zwitterionic salts-water mixtures
Anti-fouling surfaces are a critical requirement for a wide range of biomedical applications, such as medical implants and biosensors. Poly(ethylene glycol) is widely used... -
structure of surfactant-free microemulsion as the L-L equilibirum line is app...
A surfactant-free microemulsion is ternary system consisting of two completely miscible molecular liquids and a third one that is only highly soluble in or miscible with one of... -
Solvation and structure of lithium in bis{(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl}imide bas...
The use of ionic liquids for electrochemical devices such as supercapacitors, dye sensitised solar cells and lithium ion batteries has led to significant advances in technology.... -
Structural behaviour of gallium in phosphate glasses for bone cements
Bone cements are an important class of biomaterial used in hard tissue surgery as well as periodontology. Many of these are glass-ionomer cements formed from an aluminosilicate... -
The role of water in homogeneous catalytic processes mediated by water solubl...
A large number of chemicals are currently obtained by catalytic synthetic processes, but usually in most of these processes the catalyst remains in the reaction medium during... -
Morphology of poly(ethylene-oxide)-ionic liquid mixtures: the role of hydroge...
We propose to explore the morphology of binary mixtures of poly(ethylene oxide), a biomimetic macromolecule, and two different ionic liquids, differing in their hydrogen bonding... -
Investigating the structure of novel zinc and magnesium doped bioactive glasses
A range of novel bioactive glasses containing zinc and magnesium have recently been developed for dental and orthopaedic applications. At present little is known about the... -
Molecular interactions in amorphous paracetamol
The appearance of multiple crystal forms is one of the bottlenecks in pharmaceutical formulation. To date the result of a crystallisation experiment cannot be predicted and we... -
The origin of the dissolution of cellulose in alkali/urea aqueous solution
Cellulose is produced over tens of billions of tons every year in the world. It is one of the most abundant natural polymer resources. Compared with petroleum-based polymers,... -
