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... -
Structural insight into the mechanistic process of permeabilization into mode...
The aim of this study is to try to understand how antimicrobial peptides bind to model lipid monolayers mimicking different cell membrane types. Following our previous work,... -
Modelling of surfactant phase behaviour versus concentration below ambient te...
We wish to understand how the concentration of surfactant mixtures in solution affects adsorption at lower temperatures; in particular, we wish to see how the composition of the... -
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... -
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... -
The Interaction of Grp1 with Membranes Containing Signalling Phospholipids

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'... -
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,... -
NR study of binding of short antimicrobial alpha-helix peptides with model li...
In this work we explore how our rationally designed peptide amphiphiles bind onto lipid monolayers using neutron reflection combined with deuterium labelling to the lipids,... -
Optimizing surfactants for CO2
This experiment addresses an important, and still unresolved, question in the field CO2-philic surfactants: what is the minimum fluorine content necessary to obtain a CO2-philic... -
Multi-catalyst ensembles - aggregation structure and selectivity
There is exciting potential for SANS to resolve an important problem in homogeneous catalyst chemistry. The Pd-chiral catalyst 1+ below has significant pan-industrial potential... -
SANS study of synthesis of interpenetrating polymer networks in supercritical...
We use SANS to study synthesis of interpenetrating polymer network in supercritical CO2 in situ at sans2D. The initial system contains an inorganic polymer network, hydrophilic... -
Structural studies of thermal responsive nanogels at the oil-water interface
It has been shown that gel particles are able to stabilize the oil-water interface and forming emulsions ( the so called "Pickering emulsions"). It has also been shown that...
