Photo-catalytic oxidation of phenol over porous TiO2: A Modulation excitation...
Solar energy is an abundant renewable source to tackle energy and environmental concerns. For example, solar energy can be converted into electricity, can be used to produce... -
Structural changes of PdRu alloy nanoparticles caused by catalytic reactions
We are proposing 4 days of beamtime on GEM/Polaris to conduct the neutron powder diffraction experiments on PdRu alloy nanoparticles supported on CZ (CeO2-ZrO2) before and after... -
Aromatic/aliphatic binary mixtures in a porous substrate studied by total neu...
Confined liquids are an important subject of research in many areas, such as geology, biology, food and drug preservation, and heterogeneous catalysis. These liquids can have... -
Phase Transitons and Phonon-Liquid-Electron Crystal Behaviour in Argyrodites
We wish to collect powder neutron diffraction as a function of temperature on four samples of argyrodites, A8GeQ6 (A = Cu, Ag; Q = S, Se), to investigate structural phase... -
Order-Disorder Transitions in Layered Tellurides
We have prepared a new series of layered tellurides Cr2-xInxGe2Te6, containing 2D ordered arrays of (Cr,In) cations and (Ge-Ge) pairs. Recent neutron measurements reveal indium... -
Structural studies of water under negative pressure
Structural studies of water have been made for a wide range of states but little work has been made for ¿stretched water¿, i.e. under negative pressure. This state may be... -
Studying the hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde over Pt/MCM41 under flow
The proposal aims to use neutron scattering coupled with NMR spectroscopy to study the selective hydrogenation of a fragrance (cinnamaldehyde) to high value products. The study... -
Structure Direction from Electrons in the Presence of the 'Alkalide Option': ...
We request 5 days on SANDALS to investigate the structural effect of expanded metals in the LiNa-MeNH2 system at three different concentrations. The interplay between... -
Heterogeneous hydrogenation in continuous flow followed by NMR and total neut...
It has been estimated that 80-90 % of chemical processes use catalysis in at least one step of the production process. Their use increases the energy efficiency of the process...
