Chiral recognition by asymmetric micelles: a possible novel asymmetric separa...
We plan to study the size and shape of bare and L or D serine-containing (1R,2S)‐dodecyl (2‐hydroxy‐1‐methyl‐2‐phenylethyl) dimethylammonium... -
Controlling the morphology of bulk heterojunction (BHJ) films using mixtures ...
Through a combination of small angle neutron scattering, ion-beam analysis and ellipsometry we have recently demonstrated that in organic photovoltaic devices (OPVs) the... -
Internal structure of chitosan and modified chitosan nanoparticles for transm...
Mucus is a viscoelastic gel present on various moist surfaces of human body including gastrointestinal tract, eyes, respiratory system, bladder and vagina. Administration of... -
A SANS Study of Hierarchical Order in DNA Complexes with Trojan Peptides
We will use SANS to investigate the nanoscopic structure i.e., sizes in the range 2-200 nm of complexes formed by cell-penetrating peptides and nucleic acid species. The... -
Emulsification of Fire-fighting surfactants
The aim is to understand how the addition of a common hydrogenated/ deuterated oil affects the size of the self-assembled structure of three common industrial fluorocarbon (FC)... -
SANS study of the interaction of model plant leaf waxes with non-ionic surfac...
The understanding of the plant wax-surfactant interaction process is crucial to the development of more effective pesticide and fungicide formulations, essential for improving... -
Surfactant self-assembly in mixed choline chloride:urea-choline chloride:glyc...
Deep Eutectic Solvents (DES) are mixtures of organic salts and hydrogen bond donors, that form strongly hydrogen-bonded room temperature liquids. DES share many features with... -
Structure-performance relationships of chemical demulsifiers
The project is to understand fundamental structure-performance relationships of chemical demulsifiers in water-in-crude oil (w/o) systems. In particular, to understand how... -
SANS study of the effect of thermal annealing on the morphology of bulk heter...
This projects aims to contribute to a better understanding of the relationship between processing conditions, active layer morphology and device performance in polymer solar...
