Structure of responsive PNIPAM-PAAc microgels
We propose to investigate a temperature and pH responsive microgel composed of Interpenetrating Polymer Networks (IPN) of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) and poly(acrylic)... -
Understanding the structure of sunscreen formulations: where does the active ...
The negative effects of exposure to ultraviolet rays, 290-400 nm, are well known. Long exposures to these rays often cause skin damage (e.g. skin burns, melanoma). Topical... -
Molecular interactions and protein stability in the accessory gene regulator ...
Staphylococcus aureus is a normal skin commensal and an opportunistic pathogen that presents serious threat to healthcare. It is the causative agent of septicaemia and... -
Cationic surfactants as non-covalent linker for cellulose nanofibrils and sta...
This proposal forms part of an ongoing project concerning interpenetrating network gels of starch and cellulose being developed towards applications in personal care and... -

In situ SANS study of a protein- graphene oxide (GO) co-assembly system
Supramolecular chemistry offers an exciting opportunity to assemble materials with molecular precision. However, there remains an unmet need to turn molecular self-assembly into... -
SANS characterization of precipitates in irradiated (RPV) steels
In this proposal, we ask for beam time to finish the study of the effect of dose radiation on the mechanical behaviour of the Reactor Pressure Vessel (RPV) Steel used in the... -
Creep Cavitation in Copper
The key objectives are to study creep cavitation (formation of voids at high temperature) in pure copper. Cavities forming in polycrystalline materials leads to a drop in the... -
Finite size effects in nanostructured thin layers of shape memory alloys
Ferromagnetic shape memory alloys can undergo reversible strain changes in external magnetic fields. Here we want to characterize NiMnGa alloys, which present brittle behavior... -
Small angle neutron scattering for manufacturing method validation
Cu-Cr-Zr alloys are the material of choice for coolant structures in fusion reactors, where high thermal conductivity and structural strength at 250-300 C are required. These... -
