Self-assembly of protein polymer conjugates: Effect of copolymer structure
Conjugation of therapeutic proteins to polymers is well established but most methods result in multi-site and multiple conjugation or crosslinking resulting in lack of... -
Probing bulk heterojunction (BHJ) thin films with graded morphologies using SANS
This projects aims to contribute to a better understanding of the relationship between processing conditions, active layer morphology and device performance in polymer solar... -
New surfactants forming anisotropic micelles and microemulsions in CO2
An analogue of the popular surfactant AOT with isopropyl glycol tails (IG-AOT, Figure.1) has been recently designed as a co-surfactant for water-in-CO2 (w/c) systems: stable... -
Surfactant induced gelation of TEMPO-oxidized cellulose; Using betaine-based ...
Our group has been working cellulose nanofibrils (OCNF) which form hydrogels in the presence of certain additives. Previously, we have studied the effect of salt, single... -
Using contrast matching to understand the networks in multicomponent systems
We have been focusing on two component gel networks. Here, both components can individually form gels. In a mixed system, the LMWG can either co-assemble or self-sort. In a... -
Exchange kinetics of complex coacervates core micelles
Coacervates have been studied for a long time for their unusual properties: they are dense networks of charged polymers that are soluble in water. Instead of flocculating when...
