Measuring strains in geologically important hydrous minerals
We request 4 days of beam-time on ENGIN-X to measure the elastic behaviour of polycrystalline samples of gypsum, antigorite, and talc as a function of uniaxial load. All three... -
The topotactic reduction and anion exchange of complex oxy-halides
The reaction of LiH with the oxy-chloride Sr3Fe2O5Cl2 initially leads to the topotactic deintercalation of oxide ions and the formation of Sr3Fe2O4Cl2 containing sheets of... -
Investigation of the effect of crack propagation on weld zone residual stress...
Welds have an associated residual stress field that affects the propagation rate of weld zone defects/cracks. Crack propagation modifies the local stress field through residual... -
Cellulose-based polyelectrolytes for microencapsulation: conformational trans...
Addition of multivalent salts to water soluble polyelectrolytes, such as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (NaCMC), induces conformational change to the polyelectrolyte structure,... -
Nanoscale zerovalent iron (nZVI) impact on soil microbial communities
The use of nanoparticles for environmental remediation is an emerging technology. Pioneering the field is the use of nanoscale zerovalent iron (nZVI) to cleanup ground waters...
