Pre-aggregation of 3-hydroxybenzoic acid in solution
The pharmaceutical intermediate 3-hydroxybenzoic acid (MHBA) is reported to crystallise in two polymorphs. The stable one is obtained by evaporation from methanol solution,... -
Understanding the structure of sodium laureth sulfate and cocamidopropyl beta...
The objective of this research is to understand the detailed structure of water-surfactant solutions as a function of concentration. This is important as these materials form... -
Linking solvent structure to materials synthesis: Choline Chloride:Urea-Water...
In our recent work we have studied formation of nanostructured cerium oxides from the choline chloride:urea deep eutectic solvent (DES). We found that as water content in the... -
Protein-Ionic liquid interactions: A window into future sustainable processin...
Processing of complex biopolymers, particularly proteins such as keratin and silk, has been hindered by the extremely low solubility and thus accessibility to the protein... -
Protic Ionic Liquid ¿ Benzene Interactions
Ionic liquids (ILs) have been extensively studied for liquid¿liquid extractions and have recently been examined for the purification and separation of crude oil components. Of... -
Structural studies of water under negative pressure
Structural studies of water have been made for a wide range of states but little work has been made for ¿stretched water¿, i.e. under negative pressure. This state may be... -
The effect of magnetic structure on ordred/disordered IrMn3 exchange-biasing ...
The exchange biasing effect in the thin film IrMn3/Fe depends strongly on the degree of structural ordering of the underling antiferromagnetic IrMn3 pinning layer. In this work... -
Kinetics of Molecular Intercalation into Graphite Oxide
The search for new porous materials is increasingly be driven by socio-economic pressure to diversify our energy supply and minimize environmental impact. Carbon-based... -
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... -
What is the Room Temperature Structure of NaTaO3?
The current proposal seeks to establish the origin of t non-perovskite-like peak splitting observed in HRPD data for NaTaO3. It is our hypothesis that this is a result of the... -
Framework flexibility and host-guest hydrogen bonding in the metal-organic do...
The recently reported double perovskite analogue imidazolium potassium iron(III) cyanide is noteworthy for two reasons. First, the order-disorder phase transitions, in which the... -
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... -
Cathodes for Na-ion batteries
Lithium-ion batteries are of great interest for automotive applications but are expensive. Sodium is much more abundant and hence cheaper so for e.g. storing energy from... -
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... -

Topochemical fluorination of n = 2 Ruddlesden-Popper phases
Low-temperature fluorination of A3B2O7 layered oxides allows the preparation of A3B2O7F2 oxide-fluorides in topochemical reactions that conserve the crystal structure of the... -
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... -
Reverse Monte Carlo study of Silicon anode materials for Lithium-ion batteries
The performance of current commercial Li-ion batteries with graphite anodes is limited by the relatively small amount of lithium that can reversibly intercalate between the... -
Structures and Chemistry of new layered oxychalcogenides
We propose to use POLARIS to obtain detailed structural information on a series of new lithium-containing layered oxychalcogenides and to investigate the ordering of lithium...
