Kinetics of surfactant multilayer formation / dissolution at interfaces
The formation of multilayer structures at surfaces and interfaces from self-assembly in mixed surfactant and in polymer / surfactant mixtures has been recently reported, and... -
Probing perfume surface delivery / retention rates in-situ
This proposal is part of a funded (CASE) project, aimed at understanding the delivery of benefit actives (perfumes) to interfaces and the development of new self-assembled... -
Competitive adsorption in hydrophobin / protein mixtures at the solid-solutio...
Hydrophobins are secreted fungal proteins in the form of small lipopetide biosurfactants. They are strongly surface active and self-assemble at interfaces and in solution. This... -
Surface properties of biogenic polyaminesurfactant mixtures
Polyions and biogenic polyamine are ubiquitous in many important biochemical functions. We propose here to use neutron reflectivity to investigate their potential to induce and... -
Sustainable polymeric deposition aids
This is a new programme of work and a collaboration between CCLRC, Oxford, Unilever and Manchester. It is concerned with polymer aided deposition to solid substrates, using... -
Adsorption of modified PEI / SDS mixtures at the solid-solution interface
Polymer-surfactant mixtures are extensively used in a wide range of domestic, industrial and technological applications. This proposal is part of a collaboration between Oxford... -
Surface activity of antibacterial agents
This proposal is aimed at understanding the surface activity of the antibacterial agent, Triclosan, in the presence of surfactants. We request NR beam time on SURF to...
