Polymerisation of Styrene in PEI-Surfactant Films on Si Wafers
We have been studying the formation of solid polymer-surfactant films formed from cationic surfactants with PEI. We wish to use the highly organised mesostructures formed in the... -
Interfacial Adsorbtion from Nematic Mixtures
The aim is to determine the amount of absorbtion of the one component of a mixture at the nemtic/air interface using neutron reflection. The host material in the mixture will be... -
Mixed micelles of nonionic and metallosurfactants (P123/CTAF) as porogens of ...
Non-ionic/metallosurfactant (P123/CTAF) mixed micelles are used as templates for the hydrothermal synthesis of mesoporous ferrisilicate materials. It was hypothesized that... -
A study of the role of divalent cations in the stability of smooth LPS in out...
The Outer Membrane (OM) is found in bacteria which cause plague, cholera & Legionnaires disease. It is important as; a barrier to antibiotics & the site of...
