Spontaneous surface multilayer formation in oligoamine ¿ surfactant mixtures
This proposal is part of a major EPSRC (EP/GR065705)/Unilever funded programme to develop and control the spontaneous formation of surfactant multilayer structures at... -
Structural insights into crude oil asphaltenes II: Correlating molecular desc...
Asphaltenes are a complex and problematic fraction of crude oil that can precipitate, block pipeline and foul refineryequipment. Asphaltenes have a high proportion of aromatic... -
The impact of synthetic perfumes on surfactant self-assembly.
This proposal is part of a broad collaboration between Oxford, CCLRC, and Unilever in the study of surfactants and mixed surfactants at interfaces and in solution. This is an... -
Probing binary mixtures of hard spheres
As part of a larger programme we aim to test densely-packed binary mixtures of monodisperse hard sphere powders to determine local structure, to correlate with ratio of... -
Soft hydrogen bonding: how does methanol dock onto olefins and aromatic compo...
Hydrogen bonding (HB) is an ubiquitous interaction. Weak HB (WHB) has long been acknowledged to exist such as: O-H ...... pi cloud, where either the aromatic electron cloud or... -
Interfacial conformation of antibody and antigen binding capacity
Antibody-antigen binding has been extensively used in many technological applications such as immunoassays, chemical analysis and bionanotechnology. The crucial element... -
Ternary Molybdenum Carbonitrides for anion transfer catalysis; Structure, Mob...
We are undertaking a study of the mobility of nitrogen and carbon atoms in metal carbo-nitride catalysts, specifically in the cobalt molybdenum system: Co-Mo-C-N (where... -
Interaction of lignosulphonates with model surfactant systems by neutron refl...
With the biobased economy growing substantially and pressure to reduce reliance on palm and crude oil derived materials, it is vital that the Home and Personal Care industry... -
How do colloidal nanocrystals appear to biological systems? A SANS study of t...
A key aspect of any biological application of nanomaterials is to understand what happens when they are introduced into biological environments. When particles are introduced... -
Effect of temperature on the structure of model wax films as studied by neutr...
Cuticular wax films protect plants by mediating water and nutrient transport from the environment. Surfactant is a key ingredient in agrisprays that can promote the uptake of... -
Self-assembly in biosurfactants and biosurfactant / surfactant mixtures
This proposal is part of a new project which is a collaboration between Oxford, Newcastle, Ulster, and Unilever on the development of sustainable laundry detergents, using... -

Impact of AlCl3 on SLES / SDS self-assembly
It is now well established that the addition of the trivalent counterion, Al3+, induces surface multilayer formation in a range of anionic surfactants, including SLES, MES and... -
Low temperature adsorption of model binary surfactant mixtures in the presenc...
We wish to extend previous studies on the adsorption of binary surfactant systems at the air water interface by the addition of NaCl and CaCl2: mimicking the 'hard water'... -
Complex evolution of solution microstructure in LAS / nonionic surfactant mix...
This proposal is part of a broad programme of collaborative research between RAL / Oxford and Unilever, using predominantly scattering techniques to investigate the nature of... -
Copy of: The origins of Biosurfactant self synergy
Biosurfactants are becoming more commonplace in pharmaceuticals, vaccines and other forms of medicines. With the biobased economy growing substantially and pressure to reduce... -
Structural organization of an acqeous biphasic system for the use of metal re...
Aqueous biphasic systems have been recently proposed for metal separation, using an acidic-ionic liquid based solution. Metals are dissolved in ternary mixture and migrate... -

This proposal is part of a major EPSRC (EP/GR065705)/Unilever funded programme to develop and control the spontaneous formation of surfactant multilayer structures at... -
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... -
New quaternary nitride catalysts; mapping activity to structure and metal dis...
We propose an experiment on POLARIS to elucidate the changing structure and stoichiometry of mixed metal quaternary molybdenum nitrides, Con(1-x)FenxMonN (n=3, 6; 0 ≤ x...
