PROTON DYNAMICS IN NON AND PARTIALLY DEUTERIATED ETHYLAMMONIUM NITRATE IONIC ...
The field of ionic liquids is one of the hottest topics with the number of publications still growing exponentially. This is due to the negligible vapour pressure,... -
Structural studies on drugs and lipids in amphiphilic solutions
How drugs cross the formidable blood brain barrier in order to function is not well understood, specifically with respect to the interplay between hydrophobic and hydrophilic... -
Correlation between local dynamics and shape of SDS micelles
This is in continuation with our earlier proposal (RB910248) for which experiment was carried out during August 2009. Fast segmental dynamics of surfactants in rod-like... -
The hydration of the DOPE lipid headgroup
Understanding how water hydrates cellular membranes is an important aspect of understanding how water-soluble compounds - such as drugs - can cross into a cell from the blood... -
The structure of ceramides in a model membrane environment
This proposal aims to investigate the structure of ceramide, an important component of cellular membranes in a mimic membrane environment. After assessment of this molecule in... -
Ageing Effects in Polymer Surfactant Films
We have recently reported a remarkably rich range of surface segregation and self-organisation behaviour for surfactants and plasticisers in PVA film. These experiments are... -
Understanding the decomposition of ammonia by lithium-calcium imide
Among light metal amide-imide catalysts for ammonia decomposition, lithium-calcium imide is the most promising candidate for practical application. Ex situ diffraction data... -
Hydrophilic Melt Additive Segregation in Polyolefins
Small molecule additives are used in melt processing, sometimes to lubricate extrusion or to provide bespoke hydrophilic surfaces. Both applications require the additive to... -
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... -
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... -
Transition from Contact to Solvent-Separated Ion Pairs in protic ionic liquid...
Among the most important features affecting the behaviour of Ionic Liquids (IL) and their mixtures with molecular liquids (ML), ion pairing is attracting a great attention. This... -
PDF analysis of Li+ ordering in defect perovskite Li0.18Sr0.66Ti0.5Nb0.5O3 (L...
Our work on LSTN showed that it exhibits favourable electrochemical properties, i.e. rapid diffusion of lithium into the structure at low temperatures and the ability to... -
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 organization of an acqeous biphasic system for the use of metal re...
Aqueous biphasic systems have been recently proposed for metal separation, using an acidic-ionic liquid based solution. Metals are dissolved in ternary mixture and migrate... -
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... -
Investigation on Proton Dynamics of Ethylene Glycol Using Quasielastic Neutro...
Ethylene glycol is an industrially important alcohol used as anti-freeze. The presence of intra and inter-molecular hydrogen bonding in its liquid and solid state form makes the... -
Monomer dynamics in polymer nanocomposites
We have recently shown that the addition of single walled carbon nanotubes produces a minimum in the diffusion coefficient with increasing nanoparticle concentration. Initially,... -
