Understanding Micelle Formation in Binary Ionic Liquid Mixtures
Neutron diffraction will be used to investigate and compare the structure of binary mixtures of ionic liquids above and below the critical micelle concentration. Mixtures of... -
Specific ion effects in molecular non-aqueous electrolytes
Specific-ion (Hofmeister effects) are ubiquitous whenever ions are dissolved in solution and are important in many research fields from chemistry, to biology and in materials... -
Strain/order parameter coupling and anomalous elastic properties of Sr(Ti,Zr)...
HRPD data will be collected in situ at low and high temperatures from perovskites belonging to the Sr(ZrxTi1-x)O3 solid solution which have recently been characterised for their... -
Copy of: Characterization of Indo-Persian blades of the Wallace Collection
This experiment is a continuation of a previous one aiming to analyse the composition and microstructure of Indo-Persian swords and daggers of the Wallace Collection whose... -
When like-charged ions attract: How OH-defects influence the size and distrib...
This study will probe the liquid nanostructures of mixtures of two ionic liquids, 4-(hydroxybutyl)-pyridinium-bis(trifluorosulfonyl)-imide ([HOC4Py]NTf2) and... -
The Effect of Pressure on the Crystal Structure of Serine Hydrate
Serine monohydrate undergoes a phase transition at 5.2 GPa which involves reorientation of water molecules. It appears that this disrupts H-bonding elsewhere in the crystal,... -
Antiplasticizing effect of water in amorphous prilocaine
In glassforming organic materials, the addition of water usually has a direct plasticizing effect, visible in a lowering of the glass-transition temperature Tg upon hydration of... -
Probing the structure of calcium silicates over a wide range of length scales.
Sol-gel derived calcium silicates are of great importance due to their ability to bond to bone and stimulate new bone growth. Diffraction has revealed the atomic-scale changes... -
Synthetic Ion Channels Formed By Self-Assembly of Crown Ethers
Ion channels are present in cell membranes and permit the transport of ions across from the cell interior to the cell exterior (or vice versa), and hence allow chemical and... -
The Structure and Solvation of Ammonia Borane in THF
Ammonia borane (AB) is arguably the most promising hydrogen storage material for use in clean, green fuel applications. Simple heating of AB produces hydrogen that can be used... -
Structure and solvation of LiNTf2/1,2,3-trimethoxypropane - a new bio-derived...
This work will study the structure a new lithium-based electrolyte produced using 1,2,3-trimethoxypropane, a bioderived low-toxicity green solvent, as a first stage towards the... -
The origin of the dissolution of cellulose in NaOH/urea aqueous solution at -...
Cellulose is produced over tens of billions of tons every year in the world. It is the one of the most abundant natural polymer resources. Compared with petroleum-based... -
ToF-ND microstructural imaging for 17th-18th c. European sword blades.
The key objective is mapping the internal microstructure of a series of samples of European sword blades from the 17th-18th c. The samples, which include a full blade and are... -
Phonon dynamics in liquid gallium
We propose to measure the inelastic scattering S(Q,E) maps from gallium in its liquid phases across a wide range of temperatures. This proposal is based on a new prediction for... -
Understanding the liquid structure of binary ionic liquids
This proposal aims to extend our understanding of ionic liquid structure and determine the effect of a short and long alkyl chain length ionic liquid on the nanoscale... -

Unraveling temperature dependent cis/trans-isomerisation in bis{(trifluoromet...
Raman spectroscopy has identified differences in how the anion conformer populations of alkali metal bis{(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl}imide molten salts (Li-Cs) and protic... -
What really governs porosity in Amorphous Solid Water (ASW)?
This experiment will establish the structural changes that occur in Amorphous Solid Water (ASW), a porous material that can be formed by vapour-depositing water onto a cold... -
The effect of electron-phonon coupling on the nuclear dynamics of MgB2
We propose a spectroscopic experiment to characterise the effect of electron-phonon coupling on the nuclear dynamics of Mg and B in the the MgB2 superconductor. The...
