Nanostructure definition in electrospun fibres of polymer blends
This proposal is part of a research programme which is focused on nano-fibres prepared by electrospinning. The programme is centered on the spinning... -
Nanophase separation in monolayers of stratum corneum mixtures
There is considerable effort being put into the modelling of the outer layer of skin, the stratum corneum, because of impending EU restrictions on the use of animal skin for... -
IINS investigation of magnesium hydride in nanoscale confinement
In this experiment MgH_2 impregnated into active carbon will be investigated through IINS. Since it is known that the enthalpy of formation of a material is lowered by... -
Probing the spatial distribution of fluorophores entering nanoscale pores in ...
We wish to make specular NR measurements on fluorophore functionalization of amine-functionalized polypyrrole (PPy-NH2) films. The critical issue is film penetration of solution... -
Phase behaviour of nano-sized ion-inserted compounds
Insertion reactions are of key importance for Li-ion and Hydrogen storage materials and energy storage devices. Nano-sizing the electrode materials has emerged as a promising... -
Using SERGIS, SESANS and NR to probe nanoscale cavities created within templa...
Nanoporous membranes fabricated by polymerization around soluble templates have found many applications in (bio)sensors, charge storage devices, filtration and catalysis.... -
Spin orientation in natural nanoscale intergrowths and the origin of giant ex...
The orientation of spins in a natural sample of Ti-bearing hematite (Fe2O3) has been measured previously from 2-300K using neutron powder diffraction. It was shown that spins...
