Distribution of End-Functionalized Polymers in Semi-Crystalline Blends
Although the surface properties and self-organisation of end-functional polymers in amorphous blends are well understood, the influence of crystallinity has received little... -
Self-assembly of lipid and triblock copolymer-based amphiphiles for drug deli...
Soft self-assembled structures have been extensively used as drug nanocarriers. Their building blocks, naturally occurring and synthetic amphiphiles (lipids or block... -
Formation and ammonia decomposition behaviour of lithium nitride hydride
Ammonia is seen as a key part of the transition to a sustainable energy economy, but needs decomposition catalysts to release its stored hydrogen. Lithium nitride-hydride... -
Adsorbtion from nematic mixtures
The aim is to measure the preferential adsorption of one component in a nematic mixture. The base is 4-pentyl 4¿- cyanobiphenyl (5CB) and it is doped with 4-pentyl 4¿-... -
Multiscale time resolving study of the crystallisation of nanofibrils of a mo...
This experiment exploits the unique capability of Nimrod to study the crystallisation of nanofibrils of a molecular gelator dibenzylidene sorbitol from alkane solutions on... -
Kinetics of Hydrogen Abstraction in Butane by Mu Reactivity
Hydrogen abstraction reactions are key steps in free radical mechanisms that dominate the combustion and atmospheric chemistry of the alkane hydrocarbons and, as such, merit... -
Effects of Architecture on Polymer Diffusion
As part of a wider study we are studying the effects of polymer architecture between cyclic and linear polymers. From ATR-FTIR measurements we observe clear differences between... -
Structural development during crystallisation of synthetic polymers
We wish to exploit the unique capability of Nimrod to move forward the long standing issue of the way in which long chain polymers crystallise. There are two key length scales:... -
Probing the Mobility of Simple Phenolic Lignin Monomers for Model Development...
Due to the importance of developing efficient biomass conversion processes, the mobility of lignin constituents phenol and catechol in zeolite Beta will be studied using QENS.... -
Wetting Transitions of Tackifiers in Adhesives
Migration and surface segregation of low molecular weight oligomers in adhesive formulations is a poorly understood, but hugely important phenomenon, responsible for most of the... -

A Model for Tackifier Elastomer Interaction
Oligomers are commonly added to adhesives in order to improve surface tack properties. However, it is also important that the oligomers do not adversely affect the solid (glassy... -
Towards the development of lithium manganese nitride as novel two stage regen...
In the last decades the production and consumption of reactive nitrogen increased exponentially due to the extensive utilisation of nitrogen containing compounds as fertilizers... -
Effects of Architecture on Polymer Diffusion
As part of a wider study we are investigating the effects of polymer architecture between cyclic and linear polymers. From ATR-FTIR measurements we observe clear differences... -
Towards the development of carbonitrides as novel two-stage regenerable reage...
We are examining a number of cobalt-molybdenum carbonitrides as possible catalysts for reactions that produce nitrogen-containing organic molecules. There is good evidence that... -
Hydrogen from ammonia using lithium imide metal nitride composites
Light metal amides and imides are a new class of highly active ammonia decomposition catalysts. Indeed, composites of lithium imide and transition metal nitrides are likely to... -
Multiscale studies of crystallisation in synthetic polymers
We will exploit the unique capability of NIMROD to bring new understanding to the way in which long chain polymers crystallise. There are three key length scales: the first... -
Define the crystal structures of lead-free ferroelectric, candidate multiferr...
We have a range of new structures in the lead-free ferroelectric, candidate multiferroic and SOFC cathode areas. The HRPD data will be used to define these new crystal... -
Estimating carbon contents within different phases in hypereutectoid steels
Previous studies have attempted to correlate the results of metallography with neutron diffraction studies on the very high-carbon steels used in Oriental blades, and Indian... -
Adsorption of nanodics (stabilised by sytrene-maleic anhydride derived copoly...
Nanodiscs are self-assembled structures that consist of a bilayer of phospholipids controlled in diameter by a polymer or protein belt. We have already shown that such discs...
