In-situ reaction of lithium amide or imide with manganese(IV) oxide
We request 3 days beam time on POLARIS for in-situ powder diffraction studies of the reactions of lithium amide or lithium imide with manganese(IV) oxide under flowing argon or... -
Towards the development of lithium manganese nitride as novel two stage regen...
In the last decades the production and consumption of reactive nitrogen increased exponentially due to the extensive utilisation of nitrogen containing compounds as fertilizers... -
Molecular Dynamics in Polymer Nanocomposites
Our aim is to determine whether the fast dynamics, of either the backbone or the phenyl ring of polystyrene, are altered by the presence of carbon nanotubes, and, if so, whether... -
Hydrogen from ammonia using lithium imide metal nitride composites
Light metal amides and imides are a new class of highly active ammonia decomposition catalysts. Indeed, composites of lithium imide and transition metal nitrides are likely to... -
Molecular motions in novel water-soluble organometallic gels
The aim of this proposal is to study the internal dynamics of a novel organometallic polymers based on two metal-containing moieties -Ru, Au- bridged through a tridentate... -
SEGMENTAL DYNAMICS OF LINEAR AND CROSS-LINKED POLYISOPRENE IN NATURAL RUBBER

Ammonia synthesis using lithium hydride-metal nitride composites: an in situ ...
The development of more active catalysts for the production of ammonia will have a worldwide impact on the energy cost of producing fertiliser. Composites of lithium hydride and... -
A comparative study of tricriticality in CoMnSi and NiMnGe
We propose to use WISH to examine whether a transition between different spiral antiferromagnetic structures in zero magnetic field is the key to tricriticality at finite fields... -
Electrostatic interaction effects in orientationally disordered phases
Plastic phases are characterized by a positional ordering of the molecular centers of mass while molecules are rotating in a hindered way. Therefore these phases are... -
Structural Insights into Borohydride-Halide Li-Ion Conductors, LiM(BH4)X (X= ...
Solid state electrolytes are key components to replace volatile liquid electrolytes in lithium-based batteries to deal with the safety concern. We propose here variable... -
Dynamics and phase behaviour of Fullerol using low energy neutron spectroscopy
Fullerene and its derivatives have become materials of great technological interest for a number of reasons including their success as electron acceptors in organic photovoltaic... -
Studying the dynamics of PVA/graphene nanocomposites
The unique properties of graphene make it one of the best candidates as reinforcement of polymeric nanocomposites. One such case are poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)/graphene... -
Magnetic structure of the doped room temperature honeycomb magnet (SrCa)Ru2O6
We propose the investigation of the magnetic structure in the room temperature magnet SrRu2O6 and its doped variants. Crystallizing in the honeycomb structure, these systems are...
