This proposal will explore the effect of elevated pressure on para-xylene. It is a raw material in the large scale synthesis of various polymers, including polyethylene...

This proposal will explore the effect of elevated pressure on the widely used civil and military explosive TNT (trinitrotoluene). We are proposing a careful high-pressure...

Simple hydrides are of scientific interest due to their suitability for storage of hydrogen in the solid state. These materials also display a wealth of interesting physics,...

This proposal will explore the effect of elevated pressure on the 3,4,5-Trinitropyrazole (TNP). TNP releases a large amount of dinitrogen gas as a detonation product which is...

High pressure has shown to be a powerful tool for the exploration of the organic solid state. In particular one is able to perform polymerisation reactions on solid materials by...

This proposal is concerned with determining variations in the high pressure structure of LaCoO3 and observing changes within this as the material undergoes some well...

This proposal requests the allocation of six days beamtime on PEARL to collect neutron powder diffraction data suitable for the structure solution of phases II and III of...

Our recent X-ray and single crystal studies have shown that acrylamide can undergo different phase transformations depending on the pressure transmitting medium used i.e....

This proposal will explore the effect of elevated pressure on the behaviour of two important hydrogen peroxide solvates of the explosive CL-20. We will use neutron diffraction...

We propose to investigate changes that occur in acetylene dicarboxylic acid dihydrate as a function of pressure. This system, for which there is a general paucity of structural...

Cubic cadmium(II) cyanide shows the most pronounced isotropic NTE effect known, with behaviour more than twice as extreme as that of better known materials such as ZrW2O8....
