Revising the onset of anharmonicity in proteins
Our previous INS studies of ¿dry¿/hydrated apoferritin show that the hydrated protein undergoes a dynamical transition, Td, at 200K. Such behavior, first modeled by Doster et al... -
Clarifying the role of acid and base dopants in the hydrogen-ordering phase t...
Using ISIS facilities, our team has discovered three new phases of ice: ices XIII, XIV and XV. These phases form in the presence of small amounts of hydrochloric acid. Yet, the... -
QENS Studies of Diffusion of NH3 Molecules in Porous MOF Materials
The development of new porous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is receiving considerable attention worldwide owing to their potential for gas storage, separation, and... -
The Effect of Framework Structure and Composition on Controlled Drug Release ...
The mobility of beta-blocker and angina/hypertension drug atenolol in zeolites FAU and BEA will be probed using QENS to understand the importance of fundamental... -
Proton mobility in hydrated melanin as a function of temperature
Electroceuticals is the attempt to speak the electrical language of the nerves to achieve higher treatment effect. Thus, the search is on to develop devices to enhance... -
The intermediate stages of hydrogen disorder to order phase transitions in ice
In recent years, our team has discovered three new phases of ice: ices XIII, XIV and XV. On the basis of calorimetric data and some limited diffraction data collected on GEM we... -
Understanding Structure-Direction of Organic Molecules in Zeolite Synthesis t...
The mobility of zeolite structure directing agent (SDA) 1,2,3-triethylimidazolium (TEI) when still confined in zeolites MFI and STF after synthesis will be measured using... -
Investigating the diffusion of E-caprolactam in hierarchically-porous catalys...
Caprolactam (CL) is a high-value chemical and precursor to nylon-6. Industrially, a harsh, liquid-acid catalyst effects the Beckmann rearrangement of C6-oxime to CL, but the... -
Investigation of methanol mobility in zeolite H-ZSM-5 pores as a function of ...
Zeolites are porous aluminosilicate minerals widely used as adsorbents or catalysts in a myriad of commercial petrochemical and environmental processes including production of... -
QENS study of Proton Diffusion in Functional Metal-Organic Frameworks
Complex proton conductors based upon metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted increasing interests for applications in fuel cells. We have developed new proton conductors... -
Towards Active Site Orientation Kinetics in Solution with Quasielastic Neutro...
Catalysts are used in virtually all industrial chemical transformations to control reaction pathways by directing the environment around the reactant. Many structural... -
A QENS Study of Benzyl Phenyl Ether, a Lignin Model Compound, on a Hydrodeoxy...
Bio-oil is an alternative and renewable energy from biomass, however, its high content of oxygenates result in low heating values and chemical/thermal instability. One effective... -
Cs mixed cation lead perovskites
Organic-inorganic hybrid halide perovskites combine the optoelectronic properties commonly associated with high performance semiconductors with materials synthesis or processing... -
Investigating the diffusion of cyclic oximes in hierarchically-porous catalys...
Caprolactam (CL) is a high-value chemical precursor to nylon-6. On an industrial scale an aggressive liquid-acid catalyst is used to transform C6-oxime to CL. Due to... -
Probing the dynamics of silica supported imidazolium halide catalysts for car...
Atmospheric levels of CO2 are increasing at uncontrolled levels and as such methods of CO2 utilisation are being researched. A key reaction for this purpose is the coupling of... -
Me-ND311BD4: a temperature dependent study of its crystal structure and decom...
We request 4 days on HRPD with the IGAn apparatus to follow the structural changes of Me-ND4 11BD4 as a function of temperature. The high resolution of HRPD will allow us to... -
