Heterogeneous catalysis, where the reagents are either contained in a liquid medium, or are liquids in their own right, plays a significant part of the chemical industry. These...

The recent interest in carbon-based materials like graphene stimulated a deeper analysis of the magnetism in graphite defects. In a previous µSR experiment we observed an...

In this proposal we will study the structure of metal-ammonia solutions containing single graphene sheets by exploiting H/D isotopic labelling in conjunction with NIMROD¿s...

Alloy catalysts are commonly employed for selective hydrogenation of organic molecules due to their enhanced selectivity than individual components but their structural and...

The aims of the experiment are (1) to obtain structural data for the model hydrogen storage intermetallic LaNi5 under a deuterium pressure of 3000 bar at cryogenic temperatures,...

Porous materials impregnated with metal nanoparticles are extremely useful in catalysis, an industry that had a global turnover in 2010 of over three trillion dollars....

In a proof-of-concept beamtime award (RB1220486) we studied the process of platinum-catalysed benzene hydrogenation in the pores of MCM-41 using standard neutron diffraction...

This proposal aims to exploit the superior flux on the upgraded HRPD coupled with the intrinsic high resolution to examine the differences between a sample of Sr2CoO2Cu1.85S2...

With this proposal, we would like to investigate a material that could be used as a catalyst for hydrogenation reactions. A catalyst acts to increase the rate of a reaction by...
