Short peptide sequences such as KLVFFAE form well defined beta sheet structures. Their further templating through hydrophobic interactions and hydrogen bonding is the principal...

We request NR beam time on SURF to study the impact of multivalent counterions on the surface adsorption of alkyloxyethylene sulfate surfactants and alkyloxyethylene sulphate /...

The beamtime requested will be used to study the adsorption of a series of non-ionic surfactants at the air-IL interface in order to further understand the aggregation processes...

This proposal is about the development of sustainable detergency based formulations, based on the blending of biosurfactants and conventional surfactants, and is part of a CASE...

This proposal is part of a broad programme of collaborative research between RAL / Oxford and Unilever, using predominantly scattering techniques to investigate the nature of...

This proposal is part of a collaboration between Oxford and Ulster Universities and Unilever, on the development of sustainable laundry detergents, using a blend of conventional...

The aim of this experiment is to investigate surfactant aggregation in ionic liquids and also ionic liquid ¿ oil and ionic liquid ¿ water microemulsions via SANS. Contrast...

Short peptide sequences consisting of hydrophobic and hydrophilic amino acid units are capable of self-assembly to lead to interfacial adsorption and solution nano-aggregation....

Hydrophobins are secreted fungal proteins and are small lipopeptide biosurfactants. They are strongly surface active and self-assemble at interfaces. Their unique film forming...

We request SANS beam time on LOQ to study the impact of multivalent counterions on the micellisation of alkyloxyethylene sulfate surfactants and alkyloxyethylene sulphate /...

Peptide surfactants are a group of interesting biomimetic amphiphiles capable of forming a range of nanostructures. The aim of this work is to use SANS to determine the...

This proposal is part of a broad programme of collaborative research between RAL / Oxford and Unilever, using predominantly scattering techniques to investigate the nature of...

We wish to extend previous studies on the adsorption of binary surfactant systems at the air water interface by the addition of NaCl and CaCl2: mimicking the 'hard water'...

This proposal is about the development of sustainable detergency based formulations, based on the blending of biosurfactants with conventional surfactants, and is part of a CASE...

This proposal is about the development of sustainable detergency based formulations, based on the blending of biosurfactants with conventional surfactants, and is part of a CASE...

We propose to use NR to study the structural features of the model wheat wax films formulated from the known main components of long chain primary alcohols and an ester. By...

Hydrophobins are secreted fungal proteins and are small lipopeptide biosurfactants. They are strongly surface active and self-assemble at interface, and these unique film...

We propose to make use of SANS to determine the influence the presence of cuticular plant waxes have on the size, shape and structural properties of various non-ionic...

In recent work with Unilever we have been investigating the structure of gels formed by partially oxidised cellulose nanofibrils for use in sustainable personal care products....
