Probing binary mixtures of hard spheres
As part of a larger programme we aim to test densely-packed binary mixtures of monodisperse hard sphere powders to determine local structure, to correlate with ratio of... -
Polystrene chain conformations in good solvents and electrospun fibres
This proposal is centered on the preparation of nanoscale fibres prepared by electrospinning and is the focus of the final year PhD programme of Saeed Mohan. These experiments... -
Ordering and interfaces in deuterated semiconducting liquid crystal/polymer s...
The main objective of this proposal is to study the structure of the interface between a semiconducting liquid crystal (LC) and a soft dielectric substrate for their potential... -
SANS studies on the structures of non-ionic surfactant micelles with/without ...
SANS is about the only technique that can determine the size and shape of surfactant micelles and the subsequent changes upon pesticide solubilisation. The aim of this work is... -
Co-adsorption of eggshell membrane polypeptide-surfactant mixtures at oil-in-...
An eggshell membrane polypeptide is highly surface active and effective at emulsion stabilization. We explore how to use SANS to study the interfacial layers surrounding the...
