Understanding the properties of nucleobase functionalized nanostructures
We have recently prepared a number of new nucleobase functionalised polymers which undergo interesting and unexpected self-assembly. We hope to use SANS to explore further the... -
Structure of oil-in-water microemulsions containing eutectic mixtures of ment...
Although microemulsions have been widely investigated as potential drug delivery vehicles, relatively little work has been performed establishing the detailed molecular... -
Simultaneous measurements of ND, BET, PGAA and NR at INES beam line
Neutron based techniques for materials study are important in fields ranging from chemistry, physics and archaeometry. Neutron diffraction gives information on phases and... -
Local structural disorder in the ion conducting complex oxide CeNbO4+d
Complex oxides within the family CeNbO4 have been shown by single crystal x-ray studies to have superstructured average structures, but little detail has been obtained about the... -
Control of oil exchange dynamics in microemulsions by amphiphilic copolymers
A very important property of O/W microemulsions is the exchange dynamics of the oil molecules. So far little is know about that, despite the fact that its control is crucial for... -
Characterisation of layered double perovskite electrode materials for Solid O...
The research on new anode materials for solid oxide fuel cell is extremely important for its potential to overcome the drawbacks of current state of the art anodes. In this... -

Structural changes in a non-covalent open porous framework - ionic liquid ele...
The aim of this project is to understand the influence of an applied electric potential on the structure of a porous non-covalent network-based electrode in the presence of an... -
Commissioning of electrochemical cell for neutron scattering: In-situ study o...
There is an urgent need for to provide energy storage solutions in order for the world to switch form it's reliance on fossil fuels to renewable energy. This will allow us to... -
Further SANS contrast measurements on important protein/DNA interactions from...
This proposal is to perform further SANS contrast measurements on three protein/DNA interactions currently worked on at the Research Complex at Harwell. This is part of an... -
The magnetic excitation spectrum in Fe1.07Te
We propose to investigate the high energy magnetic spectrum in Fe1.07Te. We have previously investigated the fluctuations in Fe1.14Te in the incommensurate phase and have found... -
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... -
Structure determination of gelled cellulose nanowhisker assemblies
We have developed a new and benign method for the production of cellulose based aerogels, highly porous materials with applications in insulation, drug delivery, gas storage,... -
Negative thermal expansion in the rutile phase of ZnF2
It has recently been discovered than the rutile phase of zinc fluoride shows negative thermal expansion along all three crystallographic axes. What is highly unusual about this... -
Compressibility and Tilting of Polyhedra within Sr2NiMoO6 at High Pressure
Ordered double perovskites (also known as elpasolites) have the general formula A2BBO6 where A is generally a rare earth metal or alkaline earth metal and where B and B are... -
Phase separation and dewetting of dPS/PVME thin films by specular and off-spe...
We will perform time resolved TOF-reflectivity measurements on deuterated polystyrene (PS) and poly(vinyl methyl ether) (PVME) thin blend films, which has a LCST type phase... -
Local structure study of non-graphitisable carbon anode for sodium batteries
Na-ion-batteries (NIB) are one of the most promising candidates for future low-cost energy-storage technologies. Due to the large size of Na ions, conventional anode materials... -
