Defects and Medium-Range Disorder in the Metal¿Organic Framework UiO-66
We wish to use NIMROD to study the distribution and nature of defect sites in the high-thermal-stability metal-organic framework UiO-66. For the most part, defect structures in... -
Polymorphism and structure-property relations in 12H-type perovskite (Ba,La)1...
We request one day of beam-time on POLARIS to collect Neutron Diffraction (ND) data from three novel 12H-type hexagonal perovskites that exhibit higher than expected... -
Effect of oxidation on lipid raft formation: an off-specular neutron reflecti...
The very heterogeneous, but non-random, arrangement of lipids and proteins in cell membranes, known as rafts are of major scientific interest. Lipids in cell membranes are... -
Microdomains in model membranes using contrast variation SANS
In the present proposal small angle neutron scattering will be used in combination with contrast variation as a non-invasive method to detect the presence and size formation of... -
Manipulating surface adsorption of SLES surfactants using temperature
Although surfactant detergency is well understood above 30 C, actions of surfactants below 30 C are not well established. In the era of energy saving and environment caring, we... -
Satisfying the need for contrast in antimicrobial research
Gram-negative bacteria, which cause a variety of diseases including meningitis, plague, sepsis and food poisoning, are becoming increasingly antibiotic resistant. One reason is... -
Unravel Stabilization Mechanism of CO2 Foams under High Temperature and High ...
Long-term stable CO2 foams were generated under high temperature (120 ºC) and high pressure (12 MPa) (HPHT) in our laboratory using a C22-tailed weak cationic surfactant,...
