The application of INS to examine high specification Fe Fischer-Tropsch catal...
Over the last 4-5 years the research team have been developing INS methodology that can be applied to investigate Fe Fischer-Tropsch (F-T) catalysts. The first stage of that... -
Effect of End Group on RAFT-Polymers for Lipid Nanodisc Stabilisation
Polymer stabilized lipid nanodiscs offer enormous potential as tools for enabling membrane protein structural studies & biophysics. Previously we studied discs formed using... -
Compatibilisation of polymer blends using electrospinning
This proposal seachs time to establish the conditions under which electrospinning can be used to provide (non-equilibrium) mixtures of immiscible polymers. Such an outcome might... -
A study of the role of divalent cations in the stability of smooth LPS in out...
The Outer Membrane (OM) is found in bacteria which cause plague, cholera & Legionnaires disease. It is important as; a barrier to antibiotics & the site of... -
SANS Study of the interaction of reconstituted model wheat waxes with non-ion...
The understanding of the plant wax-surfactant interaction process is crucial to the development of more effective pesticide and fungicide formulations, essential for improving... -
Superstructures in insulating and metallic lanthanum-doped sodium cobaltate
The thermoelectric properties of NaxCoO2 can be substantially improved by replacing Na ions by cations of higher valence. Our neutron diffraction studies on SXD for doping with... -
Surface segregation and topographical excitation in stoichiometric polymer:fu...
We propose to study the kinetics and thermodynamics of polymer:fullerene composite association to provide insight into engineering increased efficiency organic photovoltaics....
