Thermal expansion of hexa-halogenated benzenes: C6Cl6, C6Br6, C6I6.
The aim of the present proposal is to complete a systematic study on the effects of isotopic and chemical substitution on the thermal expansion and vibrational properties of... -
Ice β-XV – a novel ice polymorph
Water molecules can form different hydrogen-bonded networks, a property known as ice polymorphism. So far 18 different networks have been characterized using neutron diffraction... -
Origin of the structural relaxation in ice V and the H/D volume isotope effect
Ice V is disordered monoclinic polymorph of water ice, with a complex structural topology. In our work on ice V (recovered to atmospheric pressure at liquid-nitrogen... -
In-situ high resolution neutron diffraction studies of cemented carbides
Cemented carbides are composite materials manufactured via powder metallurgy. The excellent wear resistance, high hardness, and high toughness make them widely used materials in... -
Modulation in Molecular Materials - Variable Temperature
Modulation occurs when there is ordering on two (or more) length scales. When the ratio of these is an integer, the modulation is said to be commensurate, i.e. one ordering is... -
Cation substitution in synthetic meridianiite (MgSO4.11D2O): phase behaviour ...
MgSO4.11H2O (MS11) is the most highly hydrated phase in the binary MgSO4¿H2O system. Whilst lower hydrates in this system have end-member analogues containing alternative...
