Humic acid interactions with alumina surface and the effect of perfluoroalkyl...
In the soil environment, organic matter such as humic acid has a strong influence on the behaviour of organic pollutants such as perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) and their... -
Modification of an adsorbed cationic layer by anionic surfactants below the CMC
In this proposal, we request beamtime to study the unexpected behaviour of a strongly bound bilayer of the cationic surfactant didodecyldimethylammonium bromide on the anionic... -
The effect of bilayer rigidity on the interactions with perfluoroalkyl compounds
Perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are used extensively in industrial products although have been identified as emerging pollutants accumulating in wildlife and environment.... -

Deformation mechanisms in several simple alloys to underpin creep damage char...
The proposal is to study three alloys, both at high temperature and room temperature, to corroborate strain results obtained through high resolution digital image correlation.... -
Antibiotic paths through the bacterial outer membrane: The strange case of va...
Gram-negative bacteria, which cause a variety of diseases including meningitis, plague, sepsis and food poisoning, are becoming increasingly antibiotic resistant. One reason is... -
Organization of mitochondrial membranes upon oxidative stress: Impact on apop...
Mitochondria are not only the powerhouse of the cell, but are also involved in cellular suicide via apoptosis (programmed cell death). The mitochondrial apoptotic pathway is a... -
Temperature dependence of spin dynamics near quantum criticality in an Ising ...
This proposal is part of our research programme to explore the interplay of thermal and quantum fluctuations near zero-temperature quantum phase transitions. Here we apply for a... -
Understanding light-induced changes to the miscibility of polymer/fullerene s...
Polymer/fullerene blends represent the most common form of organic solar cell. This proposal forms part of a wider effort in which our motivation is to complement solar cell... -
Determining elemental phosphorus contents in bloomery iron standards as a fun...
The proposed measurements aim to determine the behaviour of the structural parameters of iron-phosphorus alloys as a function of P-content, in order to have a reliable... -
Structure and encapsulation of additives in spray coated surfactant templated...
This proposal continues our work into surfactant templated films formed from surfactant/polyelectrolyte solutions. Recently we have been studying the encapsulation of... -
Voltage-induced swelling and collapse of weak polyelectrolyte brushes
The voltage-induced actuation of a weak polyelectrolyte brush is an example of an ultrathin, remotely controlled responsive surface coating. We propose a continuation of...
