Novel Alginate Adsorption onto High Surface Energy Crystal Faces of Calcite
In this novel proposal we will investigate adsorption onto the non-equilibrium face of calcite the first time this has been attempted. This will compliment and extend our... -
Neutron Reflection from a Biomineralisation Glycosaminoglycan on Calcite
Here we aim to structurally characterise the formation of adsorbed monolayers of heparin on calcite to address how these species influence biomineralisation and the inhibition... -
Adsorption of Aerosol-OT at the Calcite-Oil interface
The interface of CaCO3 (calcite) and water or oil is of paramount importance in a number of key academic and industrial areas, not least oil recovery and scale deposition in... -
Neutron Reflection at the Mica Water Interface
Mica is an exceptionally important mineral in surface science, which until now has been inaccessible by neutron reflection. Here we propose a novel attachment method unlocking...
