Probing the thickness of the polymer adsorbed layer in HEUR stabilized oil in...
Oils are commonly used in personal care industry as emollients. Owing to their undesirable feel they are formulated in oil in water emulsions form. Emulsions contains... -
Competitive interactions in polymer-particle-surfactant blends
Many formulations comprise distinct chemical species that exhibit antagonistic or synergistic interactions that result in unpredictable behaviour. Previous work from our group... -
Aggregation behaviour in solution of cationic conjugated polymers and oligomers
In the proposed experiments we extend previous work on characterization of aggregates formed by cationic conjugated polymers and oligomers in water. Particular emphasis will be... -
Polymer displacement by surfactant at colloidal interface
The interactions of neutral polymers with surfactants have a key role in detergency and are systems of current academic and commercial interest. Here, we propose to study the... -
SANS Study of pH-Triggered Behaviour in Pluronic-Flurbiprofen Solutions: In v...
Hydrophobic drug encapsulation is one of the widely used strategies to overcome the poor adsorption and bioavailability of these drugs in vivo. Water-soluble amphiphilic... -
The structure of particle stabilised foams
Many formulated products pass through or end up as foams, comprising immiscible millimeter sized bubbles dispersed into an aqueous continuous phase. Frequently, surfactants or... -
Structure of Cellulose Nanofibril Gels with Alcohols
Our group has been working partially oxidized cellulose nanofibrils which form gels in aqueous formulations. Recently we have observed that these fibrils also gel when dialysed... -
Constructing analogues of gemini and oligomeric surfactants through noncovale...
Gemini-like and oligomeric-like surfactants can be constructed by single-chain or gemini surfacants with connecting molecules through noncovalent binding without complicated... -
Effect of reversing lipid head group charge on vesicular properties
Zwitterionic lipids such as phosphatidylcholine (PC) are major components of the membranes that compartmentalize organisms. Although there is a large literature on PC, cationic... -
Solution Structure of the OmpF-TolA complex
Gram negative bacteria cause a wide range of diseases including meningitis, bubonic plague, gonorrhoea, diarrhoea, Legionnaires' disease and cholera. Their outer membrane... -
Determining the structure of the colicin OmpF complex
Large multiprotein complexes are the new frontier in structural biology. Individual proteins may be solved by X-ray crystallography but the relationships between subunits and... -
SANS study on the aggregation behavior of aza-crown-water soluble conjugated ...
Water-soluble conjugated polymers (WSCP) are an important class of materials which have received great attention as active materials in optoelectronic devices and in biosensing.... -
SANS studies of mixed phospholipid:sterol vesicles and their interaction with...
The increasing incidence of pathogenic fungi resistant to treatment with amphotericin B (AmB) has created a demand for novel anti-fungal agents that can circumvent the... -

Metal ion induced condensation of anionic fluorine-based conjugated polyelect...
In the proposed experiments we aim to characterise the structures of aggregate species formed when divalent metal ions, such as calcium(II), interact with the anionic conjugated... -
NTC 2018 Proposal Example 1
Please ignore. This is just for setting up ERAs ready for the Neutron Training Course. -
Interaction of polypeptides with surfactants: aqueous solution aggregation
This proposal constitutes part of our ongoing study towards understanding how collagen based polypeptides interact with ionic surfactants using SANS. Both SDS and C12TAB will be... -
The solution structure of the OmpF¿Colicin N complex in neutral detergent by ...
Gram negative bacteria cause a wide range of diseases including meningitis, bubonic plague, gonorrhoea, diarrhoea, Legionnaires' disease and cholera. Their outer membrane... -
Constructing analogues of Gemini and oligomeric surfactants using polyamines
Gemini or oligomeric surfactants, where two or more alkyl chains and headgroups are connected via spacer groups, have interesting and potentially important properties which make... -
The impact of added particles and surfactant on HEUR thickener solution struc...
Paints are typical formulated products. The paint consists of many different components - pigments, thickeners, surfactants - each of which has a specific function. The physical...
