Investigation on the structural properties of doxorubicin-loaded PEGylated li...
Doxil® is a marketed liposomal formulation containing the anticancer drug doxorubicin. Recently, SAXS measurements have evidenced a crystalline fibrillar structure for the... -
SANS investigation of cross-linking in irradiated greases
Greases used in harsh radioactive environments are showing microstructural damages. These defects cause changes in the physical and chemical properties of materials, which in... -
SANS study of the effect of thermal annealing on the morphology of bulk heter...
This projects aims to contribute to a better understanding of the relationship between processing conditions, active layer morphology and device performance in polymer solar... -
HC-polymer 3D-network conjugated by hydrocarbon-fluorocarbon core/shell aggre...
For the last two decades, many polymers have been tested to increase CO2 viscosity for enhanced oil recovery. Unfortunately, HC-polymers were found to be inactive for the... -
Structure-performance relationships of chemical demulsifiers
The project is to understand fundamental structure-performance relationships of chemical demulsifiers in water-in-crude oil (w/o) systems. In particular, to understand how... -
Surfactant self-assembly in mixed choline chloride:urea-choline chloride:glyc...
Deep Eutectic Solvents (DES) are mixtures of organic salts and hydrogen bond donors, that form strongly hydrogen-bonded room temperature liquids. DES share many features with... -
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... -
Emulsification of Fire-fighting surfactants
The aim is to understand how the addition of a common hydrogenated/ deuterated oil affects the size of the self-assembled structure of three common industrial fluorocarbon (FC)... -
A SANS Study of Hierarchical Order in DNA Complexes with Trojan Peptides
We will use SANS to investigate the nanoscopic structure i.e., sizes in the range 2-200 nm of complexes formed by cell-penetrating peptides and nucleic acid species. The... -
Internal structure of chitosan and modified chitosan nanoparticles for transm...
Mucus is a viscoelastic gel present on various moist surfaces of human body including gastrointestinal tract, eyes, respiratory system, bladder and vagina. Administration of... -
Studying precipitation in an electrical steel
Electrical steels are a type of Fe-Si steel used as transformer cores in the energy industry. Due to a welcomed drive for renewable energies, the understanding of soft magnetic... -
Controlling the morphology of bulk heterojunction (BHJ) films using mixtures ...
Through a combination of small angle neutron scattering, ion-beam analysis and ellipsometry we have recently demonstrated that in organic photovoltaic devices (OPVs) the... -

We plan to study the size and shape of bare and L or D serine-containing (1R,2S)‐dodecyl (2‐hydroxy‐1‐methyl‐2‐phenylethyl) dimethylammonium... -
Phase diagram of LAS molecule: SANS investigation into surfactant and lipid m...
This proposal would like SANS time to better understand the LAS phase diagram. This has been prompted by recent experiments which show the system is not fully understood under... -
Self-assembly of Polyoxometallate Surfactants in Aqueous Solutions
Polyoxometallates (POM) are well defined transition metal clusters with a range of interesting catalytic, magnetic and optical properties. To make efficient use of these... -
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... -
