Molecular Dynamics in Polymer Nanocomposites
Our aim is to determine whether the fast dynamics, of either the backbone or the phenyl ring of polystyrene, are altered by the presence of carbon nanotubes, and, if so, whether... -
Proton mobility in Solid Super Proton Conductor (H3O)SbTeO6 at controlled hum...
Super proton conductors are in the focus of interest because of their use in low temperature fuel cells. In this project we try to obtain information on proton mobility,... -
Uptake of Molecular Hydrogen by High-performance Carbon Nanostructures (IRIS)
High sorption capacities and enhanced interaction strengths are the two most fundamental prerequisites for the deployment of carbon-based materials as hydrogen-storage media. In... -
Molecular motions in novel water-soluble organometallic gels
The aim of this proposal is to study the internal dynamics of a novel organometallic polymers based on two metal-containing moieties -Ru, Au- bridged through a tridentate... -
DYNAMICS OF POLYSACCHARIDE HYDROGELS OF PHARMACEUTICAL INTEREST
Polysaccharide hydrogels are becoming increasingly important for biomedical applications. One of the most exploited saccharide-based biopolymer is hyaluronic acid (HYA), a... -
Nano-scale free volume and encapsulation properties of biopolymers: opening i...
Edible biopolymers are routinely used in the encapsulation and controlled release of bioactive ingredients (e.g. medicines, nutrients, flavours). Common encapsulants are in... -
Dynamics of Poly Dimethyl Amino Ethyl Methacrylate / water glycerol mixtures
We want to study the microscopic mechanisms of solvent dynamics such as water and glycerol in ahydrophilic polymer. Dielectric measurements suggest that below the glass... -
QENS Investigation of Solid Ammonia
A recent beautifully resolved INS spectrum of solid ammonia shows distinct differences in phonon states compared to initial calculation. This suggests that strong... -

Magnetic Excitation Spectrum of the Frustrated Antiferromagnet SrYb2O4
In SrYb2O4 the magnetic Yb3+ ions form sub-lattices of double chains running parallel to the crystallographic c-axis with frustrated first and second neighbour antiferromagnetic... -
Monomer dynamics in polymer nanocomposites
We have recently shown that the addition of single walled carbon nanotubes produces a minimum in the diffusion coefficient with increasing nanoparticle concentration. Initially,... -
The dynamics of wild type and mutated myelin proteins P2 and CNPase.
The myelin sheath is a multilayered membrane wrapped around axons in the vertebrate nervous system; it enables the rapid transmission of nerve impulses. It contains a set of... -
The effect of particles on the structure of mucin ¿ understanding the challen...
Progress in the development of nano-sized hybrid therapeutics and nano-sized drug delivery systems - "nanomedicines" - over the last decade has been remarkable. One key... -
Polycarbonate and tetramethyl bisphenol A polycarbonate
The miscibility of polycarbonates (PC) with polystyrene (PS) appears to be closely related to chain dynamics. Among all polycarbonates, tetramethyl bisphenol-A polycarbonate...
