The development of decorated metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is important for enhancing gas storage and mixed gas separation systems. This proposed QENS study will investigate...

The microscopic origin of the zigzag magnetic ground state in a honeycomb lattice of the quasi-2D antiferromagnet Na2Co2TeO6 is debatable. The zigzag phase may occur due to (i)...

We have established multi-end functional polymers as potent additives for spontaneous surface modification of blends. Since semi-crystalline polymers such as PE, PP, PET could...

Weyl magnon in the chromium-based breathing pyrochlores is a recently predicted novel magnetic excitation state. Similar to its anolog, Weyl fermion in the electric systems,...

The development of new porous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is receiving considerable attention worldwide owing to their potential for gas storage, separation, and...

SrTb2O4 belongs to the family of rare-earth RE strontium oxides, SrRE2O4. These compounds, consisting of hexagons and triangles, are affected by geometrical frustration and...

The mobility of beta-blocker and angina/hypertension drug atenolol in zeolites FAU and BEA will be probed using QENS to understand the importance of fundamental...

Following a recently succesfull measurement of the structure of a monolayer of n-butane adsorbed on MgO we wish to perform neutron diffraction measurements of monolayers of...

Electroceuticals is the attempt to “…speak the electrical language of the nerves to achieve higher treatment effect”. Thus, the search is on to develop devices to enhance...

Extremophiles are organisms which survive and thrive in extreme environments. The proteins from extremophilic organisms have received considerable attention as they are...

Clay barriers are routinely used in nuclear waste repositories to isolate radionuclides from the biosphere. Such barriers have to be carefully designed to remain effective for...

The mobility of zeolite structure directing agent (SDA) 1,2,3-triethylimidazolium (TEI) when still confined in zeolites MFI and STF after synthesis will be measured using...

Caprolactam (CL) is a high-value chemical and precursor to nylon-6. Industrially, a harsh, liquid-acid catalyst effects the Beckmann rearrangement of C6-oxime to CL, but the...

Complex proton conductors based upon metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted increasing interests for applications in fuel cells. We have developed new proton conductors...

The proposed quasi elastic neutron scattering experiment at ISIS aims at the characterization of the dynamical properties of the series of coordination complexes Pr(BH4)3·nNH3,...

Catalysts are used in virtually all industrial chemical transformations to control reaction pathways by directing the environment around the reactant. Many structural...

Bio-oil is an alternative and renewable energy from biomass, however, its high content of oxygenates result in low heating values and chemical/thermal instability. One effective...

We propose to study the temperature evolution of the spontaneous strain, crystal and magnetic structure of the charge ordered, mixed valence iron silicate ilvaite. In addition,...

We aim to perform inelastic neutron scattering (INS) measurements at the TOSCA spectrometer to study the vibrational behaviour of designer Guest@MOF composite systems (e.g....

Caprolactam (CL) is a high-value chemical precursor to nylon-6. On an industrial scale an aggressive liquid-acid catalyst is used to transform C6-oxime to CL. Due to...
