Perylene Bisimide Photocatalysts
Solar energy is the most abundant, sustainable, and environmentally friendly source of energy available on the earth. One promising approach to reducing the reliance on fossil... -
SANS from photoconductive hydrogel mixtures and their gelators.
Hydrogels are formed from a self?assembled network of fibres made up of small molecules (gelators) trap and hold water at just 1% by weight, or less, from the solution they are... -
Investigation of the micellar aggregates in low molecular weight gelators
We have been investigating dipeptide-based low molecular weight gelators. Here, on lowering the pH from 12 to 4, a self-supporting gel is formed. Gels are formed by the... -
Evolving microemulsions - tuning selectivity in oxidation reactions
We have begun to explore the synthesis, reactivity and physicochemical properties of a number of surface-active metal complexes, to devise a method for the catalytic...
