SANS Studies on Aggregate Structures of Peptide Amphiphiles
Peptide amphiphiles have special self-assembling behaviors and important aggregate properties, which make them have many potential applications both in vitro and in vivo. The... -
Structural Study of Functional Nucleosome in Solution
Recently, it is reported that the functional nucleosomes, CENP-A nucleosome, H2A.Bbd nucleosome and hexasome, which include variant histone cores, could have flexible and mobile... -
Life without water: The role of intrinsically disordered proteins under condi...
When cells are subjected to stress, such as drying, globular proteins are observed to unfold and irreversibly aggregate. Certain intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) do not... -
Understanding nanoscale inhomogeneities in industrial films
The world wide trade in chemicals is shipped via large tankers. These tankers have their holds coated in epoxy resin based systems. The major issue in their use is the waste and... -
Copper precipitates in nuclear power plant pressuriser weld after 29 years of...
The pressuriser is a vital part of a pressurised water reactor (PWR). We are now investigating a weld of a pressuriser that has been in operation for 29 years. The long time at... -
Tracking how the spin cycloid in BFO evolves with electric field and temperature
AFM order in BFO was first detected by neutron diffraction and was classified as Type G. However, the spins are not perfectly antiparallel; there is a spatial-modulated spin... -

SANS Investigation into the Mode of Interaction between Antibiotics and Diffe...
In this part of proposed work, we wish to explore how antibiotics minocycline and tetracycline interact with model lipid bilayers in the form of SUVs, mimicking key features of... -
Influence of Zn and Ca on the local structure of silico-aluminate glasses
Glasses used as glazes for ceramic bodies will be studied as a function of their composition, with emphasis on two elements, such as Ca and Zn, that show the largest influence... -
Resolving mixing.demixing effects in hydrocarbon/fluorocarbon micelles
Surfactants ability to lower surface tension and act as solubilising agents is critical for their wide use in everyday products. An oily hydrocarbon (HC) "tail group" attached... -
Solution Study of the Interaction of Salt Species at Varying Concentrations
6 days on Nimrod are requested to collect neutron total scattering data of 1M, 2M and 3M solutions of a α,ω-dicarboxylic acid, glutaric acid, and 2-methylimidazole... -
A study of nanoprobe size changes within a gel for a remote strain detection ...
We have created a new probe that is able to remotely measure the strain within injectable gels. In this set of experiments we aim to measure the performance of the probe within... -
Self-assemble behaviour of surfactant in alcohol/water co-solvents
The self-assembly behavior of surfactant in alcohol/water co-solvent is quite different from aqueous solution, and has got less attention. Nevertheless, these systems have great... -
Investigating Mesoporosity in Hierarchical Aluminophosphates
Optimising catalyst lifetime and performance is pivotal to enhancing the sustainability of industrial catalytic processes, allowing greater product yields, at lower... -
Spin-polarized electron states at the interface of EuO and 3d transition meta...
The objective of this experiment is the study and characterization of spin-polarized electron states at the interface of EuO and 3d transition metal oxides. EuO is a... -
Nonfluorous Cosurfactant/Hyperbranched Surfactant Mixtures for W/CO2 Microemu...
This proposal aims to explore cheap and environmental-benign cosurfactants (or cosolvents) for yielding CO2-philic hydrocarbon surfactant/water/CO2 microemulsions (W/CO2... -
Zwitterion doped PEDOT:PSS bulk morphology modification as a function of dopi...
We propose to use SANS to study the intra-particle information (size, shape, interactions) of pristine and zwitterion doped PEDOT:PSS in order to have a better understanding of... -
Cationic & Nonionic Micelles in Deep Eutectic Solvents
Deep Eutectic Solvents (DES) are molecular mixtures similar to ionic liquids, having melting points below room temperature. DES share many of the features of ionic liquids (low... -
SANS study of the interaction of model plant leaf waxes with non-ionic surfac...
The understanding of the plant wax-surfactant interaction process is crucial to the development of more effective pesticide and fungicide formulations, essential for improving... -
Soft hydrogen bonding: how does methanol dock onto olefins and aromatic compo...
Hydrogen bonding (HB) is an ubiquitous interaction. Weak HB (WHB) has long been acknowledged to exist such as: O-H ...... pi cloud, where either the aromatic electron cloud or...
