A Time-Resolved SANS Study of the Gelation Mechanisms of Tetrapeptide Hydroge...
Time-resolved SANS will be used to investigate the mechanisms and kinetics of ordering of aseries of novel designed tetrapeptide-based hydrogelators. These inexpensive materials... -
Small-angle neutron scattering studies of phase separation in Fe-Cr based alloys
Iron-Chromium is an ideal model system to improve the fundamental understanding of phase separation with vital engineering applications. For instance, ferritic and duplex... -
Competitive and synergistic interactions in gel formation
The interactions of small molecules with Pluronic copolymers are of relevance to their numerous pharmaceutical, domestic, technological and industrial applications. Whereas the... -
The effect of particles on the structure of mucin ¿understanding the challeng...
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... -
SAXS and SANS measurements on chocolate surfactants in triglyceride oils
Molten chocolate is a dense suspension of solids (mainly sugar) in oil, to which surfactants have been added to improve the flow properties, either during manufacture or in the... -
Understanding the interfacial behaviour of bile salts to better engineer lipi...
The current project aims to 1) elucidate how bile salts (BS) structure influences their interfacial behaviour and role during lipolysis; 2) to study the potential ability of...
