Dataset – Contact evolution of dry and hydrated fingertips at initial touch
Pressing the fingertips into surfaces causes skin deformations that enable humans to grip objects and sense their physical properties. This process involves intricate finger... -
Microscopic dynamics of water associated to phospholilipd/polysaccharide nano...
In recent years nano- and microparticles composed of polymeric or lipid material have been proposed as drug carriers. Their use allows the modification of the biopharmaceutic... -
Inelastic Neutron Scattering Analysis of hydration layers on SnO2 and CoO Nan...
INS provides an ideal probe to determine the vibrational density of states of water confined on the surface of metal-oxide nanoparticles from which the thermodynamic properties... -
In-situ hydration and total scattering studies of Ba2In2-xMxO5 (M = Y and Ga)...
Motivated by the goal of improving the proton conduction in the brownmillerite Ba2In2O5 we are investigating the role of isovalent substitution at the indium sites. In... -
The hydration and ordering of lamellar block copolymer films prior to the for...
For polymer vesicles to act as effective molecular delivery systems we must efficiently encapsulate a molecular payload within the vesicle. We would like to use neutron... -
Simultaneous INS and Raman studies of lysozyme
The proposers have obtained a dispersive Raman spectrometer that is fibre optically coupled to a custom centrestick that will allow simultaneous Raman and neutron measurements.... -
The hydration and ordering of lamellar block copolymer films prior to the for...
The key to the use of polymer vesicles as effective molecular delivery systems is in the ability to efficiently encapsulate a molecular payload within the vesicle. We would like... -
INS investigation of the effects of hydration on the dynamics of natural silk...
Silk materials have been the focus of renewed attention because they exhibit extraordinary mechanical strength and toughness.Two main factors are critical for understanding... -
