In-situ Hydrogenation of Calcium Nitride
Nitrides of alkali and alkaline earth metals are an interesting set of materials specifically for their potential in reversible hydrogen storage. However, many fundamental... -
Understanding the decomposition of ammonia by lithium-calcium imide
Among light metal amide-imide catalysts for ammonia decomposition, lithium-calcium imide is the most promising candidate for practical application. Ex situ diffraction data... -
Identifying the muon site in fluorine containing compounds
Fluorides form model systems with which we can test ideas about muon sites. We therefore propose a series of short experiments on well-defined fluoride systems that will be... -
Probing the glass transition in polymers using LF muSR
Nearly all polymers form glasses and the glass transition at temperature Tg dominates many physical properties of polymers that are relevant for their applications. The most... -
In situ studies of mixed-phase oxygen transport membranes
The oxygen transport membrane is a system being developed by St Andrews in conjunction with industry, which at high temperatures will allow the selective migration of oxygen... -
How is the nanoscale structure of Amorphous Solid Water (ASW) impacted by the...
This experiment will determine how the structure and porosity of Amorphous Solid Water (ASW) changes when the ice is contaminated by adsorbate molecules. ASW is a porous... -
Adsorption of sodium polyacrylate to sapphire - how does a colloidal stabiliz...
Stabilizers of colloidal particles are often complex and their function may involve several mechanisms to impart stability of a wide range of conditions. Sodium polyacrylate is... -
Phase transitions in Sr-doped multiferroic bismuth ferrite
Bismuth ferrite, BiFeO3, is a much-studied ceramic showing both dielectric and magnetic ordering at relatively high temperatures. In order to improve its properties there has... -
The mode of action of a novel disruptive antimicrobial technology on model me...
A Unilever proprietary technology has been shown to inhibit biofilm growth and development, and is also found to possess antimicrobial activity, effective both as a... -

Investigation of glycolide-h4 and d4 at high pressure.
This proposal seeks to investigate the polymorphism and polymerisation of glycolide. Glycolide is a six-memebered ring structure that polymerises into poly(glycolic acid) and is... -
High-Pressure Investigation of the Ferroelectric ND4IO3
We propose a high-pressure neutron powder diffraction study of the crystal structure of deuterated ammonium iodate, ND4IO3, which is known to undergo a ferroelectric phase... -

Amorphous Micrometre-Sized Water Ice Particles for Planetary Science Experime...
We request 2 days on SANDALS to characterise the temperature dependent properties of amorphous icy particles as they will be used in a more detailed study on NIMROD in Feburary... -
Structure and properties of ammonium-doped water ice
The ammonium anion is comparatively soluble in ice and may also increase the solubility of associated cations that would otherwise not be easily accommodated in the crystal... -
Understanding the Pressure Response in Amines: Weak hydrogen-bonding vs Non-b...
Methylamines are an ideal chemical system to study in order to understand the effects of steric bulk and competing non-bonding interactions on hydrogen bonding at the networks... -
Thermal expansion of persubstituited aromatics I: benzene.
Benzene is probably the most studied compound in the history of organic chemistry. Whenever a new experimental technique or theoretical method is being developed most of the... -
Self-Assembled Atmospheric Fatty Acid Aerosol Proxies: Spin-Coated Thin Film ...
We propose a simultaneous neutron reflectometry (NR)/attenuated total reflection (ATR) infra-red spectroscopy experiment on spin-coated thin films of self-assembled fatty acids... -
Effect of intergranular stress on creep deformation in 316H during high tempe...
Creep lifetime of high temperature power plant materials are significantly affected due to predicted and unpredicted cyclic loading during plant operation. Our previous study... -
Magnetic excitation in triangular latticce antiferromagnet alpha-CaCr2O4
The triangular Heisenberg antiferromagnet is the classic example of the frustrated magnet, here the ground state forms a non-collinear 120° structure. A number of different...
