Asphaltenes are a complex and problematic fraction of crude oil that can precipitate, alter wettability and stabilise unwanted oil-in-water emulsions. Asphaltenes have a high...

The appearance of multiple crystal forms is one of the bottlenecks in pharmaceutical formulation. To date the result of a crystallisation experiment cannot be predicted and we...

Composites materials that combine the flexibility and mechanical robustness offered by polymers with the functionality displayed by metal oxide nanoparticles offer new insight...

The combination of NMR, DFT based ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) and total neutron scattering aided by EPSR simulations provide a new method for understand the factors...

There is a huge interest in the properties of water under extreme conditions of temperature, pressure and environment. This interest ranges from the water vapour jets that...

This experiment is focused on the use of the unique capability of Nimrod to study the crystallisation of polymers from solution. We wish to obtain high quality time-resolved...

We will exploit the unique capability of Nimrod in the study of the long standing issue of polymer crystallisation. We focus on isotactic polypropylene which has been quenched...

Catalysis is defined as the increase of the rate of the reaction or directing the reaction to one of the thermodynamically permitted pathways that lead to different products. It...

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....

This proposal is intended to further the measurements required for the full structural investigation of binary alloy FePt nanoparticles (NPs) and the surrounding surfactant...

This experiment is focused on the use of the unique capability of Nimrod to study the crystallisation of polymers from solution. We wish to obtain high quality time-resolved...

We propose to use neutron scattering experiments to gain molecular level insight into an intriguing liquid structure observed in a water-free CO2-capture solvent. Switchable...
