Resolving the manifold setting structure of protiated vs D2O portland cements
Models of cement have been formulated to further understanding. The dominant being Jennings layered colloid model. Therein, idealised silicate layers are interspersed with... -
Hydrogen phase behaviour in microporous carbons with different pore geometries
In this proposal, we seek to use quasielastic neutron scattering (QENS) to investigate the phase behaviour of molecular or di-hydrogen (H2) in cylindrical and slit-shaped pores... -
Investigating the surface structure and composition of binary ionic liquid mi...
The structure of ionic liquid (IL)-gas interfaces is currently a hot topic in the field and our understanding of pure ILs is improving. However, very little is known about the... -
Spatially profiling internal microstructure changes during redox driven rapid...
The redox driven swelling and deswelling of conducting polymers has been termed Electronic Muscle actuation. One application of this property is as a sphincter-like valve in a... -
Oxidation of bilayer of labelled DPPC by aqueous hydroxyl radical elucidati...
Oxidation of atmospheric aerosol can produce cloud condensation nuclei capable of changing the reflectivity and lifetime of clouds. The oxidation of organic film on atmospheric... -
Lipid bilayers suspended beneath the air/water interface for neutron reflecti...
Bacterial membranes contain safety valves called mechanosensitive ion channels, which protect the bacterium from changes in the osmotic pressure of their environment. However,... -
manipulating surface adsorption usinf ethoxylated polyelectrolytes
The strong interaction between polyelectrolytes and ionic surfactants can result in pronounced surface adsorption and the formation of surface multilayer structures. This... -
Quasi-Elastic Neutron Scattering on adenine-based gold(I) hydrogel-entangled ...
The hydrogelation of gold(I) complexes is a fascinating albeit still underdeveloped area of soft matter chemistry, with feasible high-technology applications based on the unique... -
Water dynamics in porous PTFE membranes for water purification
This is a resubmitted proposal in a new project on water purification by membrane distillation. With this technology liquid water is excluded from passing the separating... -
Multiscale time-resolving study of crystallisation in polyethyleneoxide
We will exploit the powerful and unique capability of NIMROD to follow in a time-resolving manner the crystallisation of polyethyleneoxide (PEO). There are three key length... -
Low-dimensional glasses: Effect of occupational site disorder in the excess o...
The present scientific case concerns a glass-forming system with even less degrees of freedom, namely the occupational disorder of high-temperature phase (I, P21/c) of... -

Dynamics of PDMS-g-PDMS bottlebrush polymers
Bottlebrush polymers, backbone with long side chains, are very interesting regarding their architecture, which is different from well known linear polymers. Not only the... -
Dynamics of Perfluoroalkanes and Polytetrafluoroethylene
In this experiment we will use the F-mu+-F state as a window into the dynamics of perfluoroalkanes and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) at the molecular level. We will investigate... -
A study on atomic clustering in Fe-Cr alloys by NIMROD diffractometer
Low temperature embrittlement of stainless steels are due to phase separation and it is known that the kinetics of phase separation depend on the initial structure. However, the... -
Commissioning of a new continuously-loaded high-pressure piston-cylinder cell
We request two days on Engin-X to carry out commissioning tests on a pair of new piston-cylinder cells and their associated hydraulic press. Although intended primarily for use... -
