Structural relaxation in liquid Gallium
Cooling down a liquid at ambient pressure all except Helium attain a solid state. If a crystalline state is reached a dramatic change in long range order occurs manifesting the... -
Methane hydrate formation in the presence of surfactant
In this proposal we wish to study in situ formation of methane hydrates in surfactant solutions. The broad aim of this research is to enable us to understand how we can... -
Contributions of ¿NH3+ torsions to phase transitions of glycine
It is proposed to investigate the torsional dynamics of the ¿NH3+ group of glycine-d2 in its three polymorphic forms using quasielastic neutron scattering (QENS). This study is... -
NR study of surface adsorption of antibodies with and without non-ionic surfa...
Nonionic surfactants usually do not show affinity to proteins and they work via competitive surface and interfacial processes in abinary mixture. However, we show in this work... -
Model anionic/non ionic surfactant adsoption at the interface below room temp...
An experiment performed on INTER last year found extreme non ideal mixing between C12E8/SLES3 at the air water interface: this feature became more extreme as the temperature... -
Multiscale time-resolving study of crystallisation in polyethyleneoxide
We will exploit the powerful and unique capability of NIMROD to follow in a time-resolving manner the crystallisation of polyethyleneoxide (PEO). There are three key length... -
Multiscale studies of crystallisation in stereoregular polypropylenes
We will exploit the unique capability of NIMROD to bring new understanding to the way in which long chain polymers, specifically stereoregulqr polypropylenes, crystallise. There... -
Surface adsorption in highly non-ideal multi-component surfactant mixtures
This proposal is about the development of sustainable detergency based formulations, based on the blending of biosurfactants with conventional surfactants, and is part of a CASE... -
ToF-ND microstructural imaging for 17th-18th c. European sword blades.
The key objective is mapping the internal microstructure of a series of samples of European sword blades from the 17th-18th c. The samples, which include a full blade and are... -
