Hydration of Laponite powder
In a recent experiment on NIMROD (RB1120193) we have studied the microscopic structure of Laponite suspensions at 2 concentrations, namely Cw=1.5% and Cw=3.0%, at both the... -
Interaction between Rubisco and SDOBS at an air-water interface
Protein-surfactant interactions at an interface play an important role for broad applications in the chemical, dairy, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries. Rubisco is the most... -

Influence of Zn and Ca on the local structure of silico-aluminate glasses
Glasses used as glazes for ceramic bodies will be studied as a function of their composition, with emphasis on two elements, such as Ca and Zn, that show the largest influence... -
Composition depth profiling of novel spray-coated plastic solar cell materials
We propose to study a range of new lower energy gap organic photovoltaic (OPV) materials deposited by spray coating using neutron reflectivity. The new materials to be studied... -
Understanding Melt Phase Aggregation in Semicrystalline Polymer Blends
We have recently prepared and studied the surface properties of some well-defined multi-end functional polyethylenes. Whilst most of our surface studies indicate that these... -
Complex evolution of solution microstructure in LAS / nonionic surfactant mix...
This proposal is part of a broad programme of collaborative research between RAL / Oxford and Unilever, using predominantly scattering techniques to investigate the nature of... -
Humidity Effects on Surface Segregation in Plasticized Poly-Vinyl Alcohol Films
PVA film is widely used as a non-toxic water soluble polymer. This proposal relates to its use in unit dose detergent pouches where plasticised PVA film stores a concentrated... -
A Total Scattering Study of Dopamine, L-DOPA and Norepinephrine Aqueous Solut...
We request 5 days on Sandals to study the interactions of the neurotransmitters dopamine, L-dihydroxyphenylalanine and norepinephrine in aqueous solution. The interactions of... -
Model Amphiphilic Deep Eutectic Liquids
Deep eutectic liquids (DELs) - mixtures of high melting-point solids that form stable liquids near room temperature ¿ have recently emerged as a new class of novel solvents with... -
Neutron diffraction from polyunsaturated multibilayer membranes containing a ...
Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are essential dietary fats that have been proposed to reduce the risk of cardiovascular and auto-immune diseases, arthritis and cancer. PUFA...
