QENS studies of nanostructured hydrides
The search for a light, high-capacity hydrogen store continues. Ammonia borane (AB) is a complex hydride with excellent hydrogen capacity, of which half desorbs at moderate... -
Control of shish formation in semicrystalline polymers
Measurements of shish structure in semicrystalline polymers after controlled shear-induced crystallizationA combinatorial approach developed to find the boundary conditions for... -
The Dynamics of the Molecular Subunit, [Li(NH3)4]+ ¿ Kinetic Energies, Proton...
We request 7 days on VESUVIO to study the molecular crystals 7Li(NH3)4X (X=I, Br, Cl , F) and parent halides, 7LiX (data for 7LiF and 7LiCl already exists). This proposal is... -
In-situ Gravimetric Study of the Decomposition of Alkali Metal Amidoboranes
We request 3 days on HRPD with the IGAn apparatus, to perform in-situ neutron diffraction and thermogravimetric studies of the decomposition of deuterated alkaline amidoboranes.... -
Structural studies and decomposition of nanostructured ammonia borane-polymer...
Ammonia borane (AB) is a promising hydrogen storage material with up to 12 wt% obtainable from 100 to 150 C. Desorption temperatures can be lowered towards targets and kinetics... -
Conformation of HEC/Colloid system under Shear
Hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) is commonly used as a viscosity modifier in many chemical systems, from paints to cement. HEC forms a physical gel in water due to the presence of... -
Probing the Kinetics of Assembly and Triggered Dispersion of Peptide-Function...
Peptide-functionalized nanoparticle (NP) aggregates have significant potential as biosensors (for specific enzymes) due to their high sensitivity, modular design and simple... -
The structural phase transitions of Ammonia Borane, an invetigation of the dy...
Ammonia Borane (AB), NH3BH3, was first synthesised in the 1950s and has now become the focus of a world wide research program with regards to its potential as a hydrogen store.... -
MAPS Investigation of the decompositon of LiNH2BH3
Ammonia borane, NH3BH3, has been extensively studied as a potential hydrogen storage material because of its high hydrogen content (19.6wt%) and relatively low decomposition...
