This proposal constitutes part of our ongoing study towards understanding the adsorption of collagen based polypeptide and its interaction with ionic surfactants at the...

Copper (I) hydride, CuH, is unique amongst the binary metal hydrides in that it can be synthesised, at room temperature, in aqueous solution. In recent years CuH generated in...

This proposal is to explore the evolution of magnetic ordering in two members of the homologous series CaFe2O4(FeO)n with n = 1, & 3, and to correlation the behaviour of the...

As part of an on-going programme of work to better understand critical factors in the methanol-to-hydrocarbon process over ZSM-5 zeolite catalysts, it is becoming increasingly...

The tear film of the eye has an outer meibomian lipid layer (TFLL) that allows tears to spread across the eye and remain stable. Our Langmuir trough and other studies show that...

The reaction of methanol to form hydrocarbons over zeolite catalysts is an important option for conversion of natural gas or coal to liquid fuels. We have shown previously...

The Earth¿s climate is strongly influenced by atmospheric aerosols. Organic surfactant films on these aerosols influences their size, optical properties and ability to act as...

The structure of the phosphate materials Na_{1+x}Ge_{2-x}Al_x(PO_4)_3 with x = 0, 0.4 and 0.8 will be investigated using high real-space resolution neutron diffraction. In the...

Lipopeptide surfactants are highly effective at reducing interfacial tension. However, there is a general lack of understanding of the relationship between their molecular...

We will perform time resolved TOF-reflectivity measurements on deuterated polystyrene (PS) and poly(vinyl methyl ether) (PVME) thin blend films, which has a LCST type phase...

We propose to study the kinetics and thermodynamics of polymer:fullerene composite association to provide insight into engineering increased efficiency organic photovoltaics....
