From polymer molecular architecture to lubrication efficacy and CO2 emission ...
In collaboration with Infineum (a world-leading engine-oil additive company), we propose a SANS study of self-assembly of novel polymethacrylate (PMA) block copolymers as a... -
The effect of hydrophobic additives on low molecular weight gels
Low molecular weight gels are the result of the self-assembly of small molecules into fibres. These entangle to entrap the solvent. When the solvent is water, these are called... -
SANS study of the effect of thermal annealing on the morphology of bulk heter...
This projects aims to contribute to a better understanding of the relationship between processing conditions, active layer morphology and device performance in polymer solar... -
Investigation of phase diagrams of polysaccharides
This project concerns fundamental and strategically important research underlying the development of new drug delivery vehicles. We propose to sample phase diagram of... -
Metallomicroemulsions - a new class of supramolecularly organised metal ions
Incorporation of d- or f-block metals into ligand systems that renders a metal complex surface active or drives its partitioning into surfactant phases enables the localisation... -

Selective adsorption of polymer on Janus particles
Janus particles, bearing two distinct compositions on the surface of the same particle, have attracted much attention recently as a way to finely tune morphology and... -
Small angle neutron scattering experiment of a novel pH and temperature sensi...
The aim of the present study is to investigate the effect of different stimuli on a novel iron oxide core shell nanoparticles. The system is composed of a magnetite core with a... -
Co-assembly of gold nanoparticles with wormlike micelles
Gold nanoparticles (GNPs) are attracting tremendous interest in nanotechnology due to their plasmonic properties, in particular the localized surface plasmon resonance effect... -
Structural study on the 3D arrangement of (hexa-acyl) lipid A in lipid membrane
Lipopolysaccharides are amphiphilic macromolecules indispensable for the growth and the survival of Gram-negative bacteria, one of the most diffuse classes of pathogenic... -
Gold-loaded microgels
Recent results show that gold nanoparticles (Au-NPs) can be included into microgels (MGs). UV-visible spectra (Figure 1) suggest the original Au-NP sols retain their size and... -
Structure of chain-grafted silica nanoparticles
The aim of the proposed experiment is to carry out a series of SANS measurements on chain-grafted silica nanoparticles prepared in our laboratory. In this experiment we plan to... -
Cucurbituril Host–Guest Micellar Systems: Structure and Self-Assembly
One of the grand challenges in the physical sciences is fabricating materials with a defect-free controlled structure on the submicron scale. Realisation of this challenge will... -
Solventless protein liquids: a novel form of biological matter
Solventless protein liquids (SPLS) represent a novel form of biological matter. Recently we reported on the preparation and properties of a solvent-free liquid protein based on... -
Structure of Multicomponent Gelators: Effect of Dynamic Covalent Chemistry
Supramolecular gels form via the self-assembly of low molecular weight gelators (LMWGs) into complex, hierarchical structures. Here we propose a SANS study of our multicomponent... -
Effect of emulsifier and added preservative on the structure and stability of...
Investigations will be performed to determine the effect of composition on the internal structure of semi-solid oil-in-water emulsions designed to model the GlaxoSmithKline...
