The Dynamics of Molecular Hydrogen in Synthetic Na-Laponite
In this proposal we aim to study the low temperature uptake and dynamics of hydrogen in the interlayer region of partially hydrated pillared Na-laponite clay. There are linked... -
Hydration of Laponite powder
In a recent experiment on NIMROD (RB1120193) we have studied the microscopic structure of Laponite suspensions at 2 concentrations, namely Cw=1.5% and Cw=3.0%, at both the... -
HERBICIDE LIFETIMES IN SOILS
The herbicides mesotrione and tembotrione have been observed to have short half-lives in soil. Furthermore, their partition coefficients (Kd and Koc) suggest limited soil... -
Structure of Molecular Hydrogen in High Charge Pillared Clays
In this proposal we aim to study low temperature structure of hydrogen in the interlayer region of partially hydrated pillared clays. There are linked dual motivations for this... -
Ageing of Laponite-water solutions
We require beam time on NIMROD in order to complete and continue a previous experiment (RB1010046) on Laponite - water suspensions. We have succesfully performed the experiment... -
The Dynamics of Molecular Hydrogen in Synthetic Clays
In this proposal we aim to study the low temperature uptake and dynamics of hydrogen in the interlayer region of partially hydrated pillared clays. There are linked dual... -
The structure of paraquat in solution and in clay gels
This experiment will use high resolution neutron diffraction to determine for the first time thesolvation structure of the pesticide paraquat in bulk aqueous solution and in the... -
Structure of Molecular Hydrogen in Synthetic Laponite Clay Hydrates
In this proposal we aim to study low temperature structure of hydrogen in the interlayer region of partially hydrated pillared clays. There are linked dual motivations for this... -
Resubmission of: The Dynamics of Paraquat in Aqueous Solution and Hydrated Clay
This proposal will enable us to study the dynamics of an important water soluble pesticide molecule, paraquat, in solution and in the interlayer region of swelling... -
Arrested states of clay-water suspensions
The unprecedented simultaneous accessibility of the low and high Q region available on NIMROD allows to tackle the issue of ageing of colloidal systems from the point of view of...
