Biomolecular Cryoprotection in Deep Eutectic Solvents
Protecting biomolecules, such as proteins and enzymes, from the effects of cooling and freezing is important for the storage and handling of pharmaceuticals. Deep eutectic... -
Telechelic Polymer - Homopolymer Blends
We have recently embarked on a new 1 year project funded by Michelin to explore the self-associatation and mechanical properties of telechelic rubbery materials. Such materials... -
Assembly of supramolecular nanotubes into tubisome structures from self-assem...
Cyclic peptide-polymer conjugates can readily self-assembly into long nanotubes, and are being extensively studied for biomedical applications. Recently, we have conjugated a... -
Co-surfactancy of oil-soluble and water-soluble surfactants in emulsion stabi...
The structures of emulsions formed from mixed oil-soluble and water-soluble amphiphiles (respectively derivatives of polyisobutylene, PIBSA, and polyacrylamide, PAM) will be... -
Dynamic P3HT Nanowire Growth in Solution (Sans2d)
We propose to use SANS to probe the self organised formation of P3HT nanowires in a solution of deuterated chlorobenzene over a 48 hr period in order to better understand the...
