Mucus is a viscoelastic gel present on various moist surfaces of human body including gastrointestinal tract, eyes, respiratory system, bladder and vagina. Administration of... -
Ionic disorder studies of lightweight hydrides by VESUVIO
We ask for 8 days on VESUVIO to study the momentum distribution of LiBH4, Li2NH and Li1+xNH2-x as a function of temperature from 10K-653K (depending on sample). Li2NH and... -
Micellization in mixtures of surfactants used in fire-fighting foams
The aim is to probe the mixed micellar compositions of three common industrial fluorotelomer surfactants used in fire-fighting foam formulations (Figure 1) using contrast... -
A SANS Study of Hierarchical Order in DNA Complexes with Trojan Peptides
We will use SANS to investigate the nanoscopic structure i.e., sizes in the range 2-200 nm of complexes formed by cell-penetrating peptides and nucleic acid species. The... -
Effects of curvature and temperature on structure of lipid-polymer nanodiscs
Nanostructured lipid aggregates offer enormous potential as tools for membrane structural biology and biophysics. Styrene-Maleic Acid Lipid Particles have a number of attractive... -
Phase separation of poly(ethylene glycol) and of poly(propylene glycol) in mi...
Phase behaviour studies have identified hydrogen bonding as a key aspect in polymer solubility in fluorinated liquids, both in terms of solute-solvent and solute-solute... -
Interaction of a pH-sensitive Polymer with a Model Lipid Membrane in the Form...
This SANS experiment was proposed by 4 PhD students from 3 different institutions in a Marie-Curie Training Network. They are all in the second year of their PhD and their... -
SANS studies of electrospun polystyrene-ammonia borane nanostructures
Increasing the density of hydrogen storage under ambient conditions is a critical requirement for the widespread introduction of low-carbon hydrogen vehicles. Ammonia borane... -
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... -
Encapsulation of hydrophobic species in mixed micelles in polymer solutions
This proposal continues our investigations into film-forming polyelectrolyte-surfactant solutions. We have found that mixed micelle systems offer greater control over micelle... -
Precipitate evolution in cold rolled Ti-V high strength low alloy (HSLA) steel
HSLA steels have been widely used in automotive industry to reduce fuel consumption due to its high strength and good weldability. These properties are achieved by nano-size... -
Emulsification of Fire-fighting surfactants
The aim is to understand how the addition of a common hydrogenated/ deuterated oil affects the size of the self-assembled structure of three common industrial fluorocarbon (FC)...
