Deep Eutectic Solvents (DES) are mixtures of organic salts and hydrogen bond donors, that form strongly hydrogen-bonded room temperature ionic liquids (ILs). DES share many...

Single chain particles are resulted from the collapse of polymer chain in dilute solution. Their chemistry and morphology can be well controlled, thus serving as ideal model...

In many applications, surfactants are formulated with a variety of additives to achieve a desired range of properties; polymers and cosurfactants/cosolvents (such as alcohols)...

It is estimated that > 40% of new drug molecules are poorly water soluble. For many reasons, solubilisation in nonionic surfactant micelles is a favoured means of increasing...

Low molecular weight gelators (LMWG) form hydrogels via self-assembly in water under specific conditions to form long, fibrillar structures. Non-covalent forces interactions...

Nuclear power has played an important role in Britain¿s history and is set to play an equally important role in its future. We have recently established a network involving...

Carbon nanotubes are of great interest due to their unique properties, such as their high aspect ratio and electrical conductivity. Many possible applications of CNTs require...

Ionogels are a new class of soft matter that have only really become subject of detailed research in the past decade. As a result, much of the contemporary literature is still...
