SANS DETERMINATION OF CO2 ABSORPTION INTO SURFACTANT STABILISING LAYERS
Recent SAXS measurements have indicated that CO2 can dramatically swell the surfactant layer in w/o microemulsions formed in CO2-swollen oils and also enhance solubilisation... -
Towards optimised detergency at low temperatures
This proposal is about the development of sustainable detergency based formulations, based on the blending of biosurfactants with conventional surfactants, and is part of a CASE... -
Temperature Effects and Kinetics of Thiolipid Adsorption to Gold Surfaces
We have a programme investigating the structure and function of protein scaffolds oriented on gold surfaces using sulfur chemistry for attachment. The aim is to direct the... -
Spontaneous surface multilayer formation in oligoamine ¿ surfactant mixtures
This proposal is part of a major EPSRC (EP/GR065705)/Unilever funded programme to develop and control the spontaneous formation of surfactant multilayer structures at... -
The impact of synthetic perfumes on surfactant self-assembly.
This proposal is part of a broad collaboration between Oxford, CCLRC, and Unilever in the study of surfactants and mixed surfactants at interfaces and in solution. This is an... -

Polymer displacement by surfactant at colloidal interface
The interactions of neutral polymers with surfactants have a key role in detergency and are systems of current academic and commercial interest. Here, we propose to study the... -
Mechanisms of shear stability in emulsions
High internal phase water-in-oil emulsions can be efficiently stabilised by polymer amphiphiles for a static emulsion, and also show high shear stabillity even at elevated... -
Co-surfactancy of oil-soluble and water-soluble surfactants at the oil-water ...
A technique we have recently developed enables us to simply produce stable, homogenous and thin oil layers, using polymer surfactants, in a simple manner on water. These are... -
Kinetics of surfactant multilayer formation / dissolution at interfaces
The formation of multilayer structures at surfaces and interfaces from self-assembly in mixed surfactant and in polymer / surfactant mixtures has been recently reported, and... -
Probing the structure of polymeric foams on SANS2d ?
Polyurethane foams (PUFs) are commonly prepared by mixing Pluronic type copolymers and isocyanate reactive monomers in the presence of additives e.g. catalysts, blowing agent... -
Micelle curvature effects on polyelectrolyte-surfactant film structures
