In situ studies on the decomposition of NaNH2 and possible formation of Na2NH.
Group 1 amides of general formula MNH2 are some of the most promising materials for hydrogen storage applications due to their relatively low temperatures of hydrogen evolution... -
Neutron Diffraction study of Highly Frustrated SrEr2O4
We propose to measure the neutron diffraction pattern of a single crystal sample of SrEr2O4, using the WISH diffractometer. As the magnetic Er ions in this compound are linked... -
Towards the development of carbonitrides as novel two-stage regenerable reage...
We are examining a number of cobalt-molybdenum carbonitrides as possible catalysts for reactions that produce nitrogen-containing organic molecules. There is good evidence that... -

This proposal requests 6 days beamtime on the Polaris diffractometer to study the nature of the local structure within two systems which have been reported to show a solid... -
The structure of clay swelling inhibitors TMA and TEA under oil-field conditions
Shale swelling is particularly problematic in the oil and gas exploration sector, as environmentally friendly water based muds are invariably used during drilling operations to... -
Understanding the decomposition of ammonia by lithium-calcium imide
Among light metal amide-imide catalysts for ammonia decomposition, lithium-calcium imide is the most promising candidate for practical application. Ex situ diffraction data... -
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... -
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... -
Local structure within Li+ depleted LiFePO4
Lithium iron phosphate is a commonly used cathode material in Li-ion batteries. The material exhibits a two phase system on lithiation and delithiation with narrow solid... -
Hydrogen production from ammonia using lithium imide: an isotope study
We have recently discovered that light metal amides and imides are excellent cattalysts for the decomposition of ammonia. We request 3 days on POLARIS to perform in situ neutron... -

Determining the nanostructure of the active layer in thin film organic photov...
Organic photovoltaics are a low cost alternative to existing photovoltaic materials and their efficiency is steadily increasing towards the point where their cost per Watt is... -
Does spinodal dewetting proceed by peristalsis?
We shall demonstrate the use of neutron reflectometry to obtain three-dimensional structures in a non-invasive experiment. Spinodal dewetting is one of the few areas where... -
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 synthetic polymers
We wish to exploit the unique capability of Nimrod to move forward the long standing issue of the way in which long chain polymers crystallise. For synthetic polymers there are...
