Contrast variation using organogels with halophenols
Contrast variation Small-angle neutron scattering (CV-SANS) will be used to probe structure of novel organogels made from surfactants and p-halophenols as low molecular weight... -
Structure and interactions in model and real anti-reflective coatings
This proposal seeks to exploit contrast variation SANS to study a multi-component system, spanning a wide range of colloidal length scales. The multi-component system under... -
CO2 foams stabilized by W/CO2 interfacially active hydrocarbon surfactants an...
CO2 foams can be formed in water/carbon dioxide (W/CO2) mixtures with the aid of W/CO2 interfacially active hydrocarbon surfactants and surface treated silica nanoparticles... -
Aggregation of new silicon containing surfactants (NOT silicone surfactants)
The results from this experiment will develop alternatives to controlling surface tension through the design of 21st century surfactants (better performance at lower...
