Pickering emulsions stabilized with oxidised cellulose nanofibrils and starch
Our group has been working functionalised cellulose nanofibrils which form gels in aqueous formulations. Previously we have used these fibrils to stabilise oil-in-water... -
GISANS from photoconductive hydrogel electrodes.
The sun is an abundant and cheap source of energy, harnessing it as storable fuel has the potential for a large societal impact. Organic photoelectrodes (PEs) formed from low... -
Total scattering studies of 7Li bearing polytriazine imide (PTI) carbon nitri...
In this proposal total scattering measurements will be performed on a low dimensional carbon nitride (PTI) material intercalated with lithium and chlorine. These low dimensional... -
Solubilisation Dynamics in Microemulsion Systems
The dynamic aspects of solubilisation of oils into surfactant systems, often forming microemulsions, are only little known so far, despite their importance for optimising... -
Interlayer coupling in YIG/NiO/Pt trilayers
The spin Seebeck effect is able to convert a temperature gradient into a spin current. Many potential applications exist for the field of spintronics, which use these spin... -
The application of INS to investigate the methanol-to-gasoline reaction over ...
We propose to use MERLIN to measure INS from commercial zeolite catalyst samples extracted from a reactor in which they have been exposed to dimethylether for different lengths... -
Uptake of Molecular Hydrogen by High-performance Carbon Nanostructures (NIMROD)
High sorption capacities and enhanced interaction strengths are the two most fundamental prerequisites for the deployment of carbon-based materials as hydrogen-storage media. In... -
Novel materials for heat storage application: a small-angle neutron scatterin...
Large quantities of thermal energy can be stored reversibly in composite materials containing SrCl2 and Expanded Natural Graphite (ENG) upon exo-/endothermal ab-/desorption of... -
Transport properties of sodium ions in novel electrochemical storage systems
The electrochemical energy storage and conversion devices are the key components in future?s smart energy grids enabling on-demand and efficient energy usage. To date, flow,... -
Engineered anisotropic liposomes for drug delivery
It is well established that the anisotropy of nanoparticles has a dominant effect on increasing their uptake by cells. However, the advantage of anisotropy for cell penetration... -
Contrast variation using organogels with halophenols
Contrast variation Small-angle neutron scattering (CV-SANS) will be used to probe structure of novel organogels made from surfactants and p-halophenols as low molecular weight... -

Structural Studies on Aggregates Formed by Novel Star-Shaped Oligomeric Surfa...
Oligomeric surfactants, where three or more alkyl chains and headgroups are connected via spacer groups with various geometries, have interesting and potentially important... -
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... -
Unravelling the solution structures and stability of industrially-important a...
The glycosylation of glycoproteins is a major determinant of their stability, and glycans also affect their aggregatibility (precipitation). An understanding of this is... -
Dynamics of Molecular Hydrogen in Vapour Grown Carbon Fibres
Vapour grown carbon fibres constitutes a promising material for hydrogen storage for transport applications. The reasons are its low cost, simple manufacturing process and... -
Probing the magnetic interface in Bi2Se3/CoFeB bilayers by polarized neutron ...
Topological insulators (TIs) are quantum materials having insulating properties in bulk, but display gapless conducting surface states. These conducting surface electronic... -
Protein-decorated superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles
The aim of this research is to understand the structural confirmation of dextran coated iron oxide (Fe3O4) nanoparticles in the presence of Bovine serum albumin (BSA) in aqueous... -
Vibrational properties of ammine complexes
Our intention is to study the INS spectra of ammine complexes nNH3LiBH4 (with n = 1,2,3,4) and nNH3LiI (n=1). Ammine complexes (MXm(NH3)n), amides (M(NH2)m), and imides... -
Dynamical process of helical-biskyrmion transformation of hexagonal magnet Mn...
Magnetic skyrmions are vortex-like, magnetic-spin objects that were lately discovered in bulk chiral magnetic materials. Recently, we discovered super stable magnetic...
