Micellar modifiers for CO2
This proposal focuses on a new approach to the formation of rod-like micelles in supercritical CO2 (scCO2). Recent successful high-pressure SANS (HP-SANS) results have shown for... -
Methane hydrate formation in the presence of graphene oxide
In this proposal we wish to study in situ formation of methane hydrates in the presence of graphene oxide. The aim of this research is to enable us to understand how different... -
On the peculiarities of the structure of particle stabilised foam
Many formulated products pass through or end up as foams, comprising immiscible millimeter sized bubbles dispersed into an aqueous continuous phase. Frequently, surfactants or... -
The Effect of Dilution on Residual Stresses In Multi-pass Welds Using Low Tra...
The aim of this experiment is to characterise the effect of dilution on the residual stresses in multiple-pass welds produced with specially designed filler alloys that exploit... -
Opening up microemulsion phases in CO2
New types of water-in-CO2 microemulsions using mixed surfactant systems will be investigated by high-pressure SANS (HP-SANS). Exciting new results (see report on RB820030) have... -

Adsorption of Alkylphenols onto the Surface of Polyamide-imide from Oil
Polyamide-imides are an important class of engineering polymers whose applications often call for high wear resistance whilst maintaining suitable lubrication. An understanding... -
The dynamics of wild type and mutated myelin proteins P2 and CNPase.
The myelin sheath is a multilayered membrane wrapped around axons in the vertebrate nervous system; it enables the rapid transmission of nerve impulses. It contains a set of... -
Competitive and synergistic interactions in gel formation

Characterisation of diffuse scattering in β-Ti GUM metal
The goal of this proposal is to measure the diffuse scattering in Beta-Ti Gum Metal. We have measured the phonon dispersion curves and have found several soft-phonon anomalies... -
Structures of phenol-ammonia and phenol-water compounds
Phenol-water and phenol-ammonia clusters are useful model systems for understanding the types of proton-transfer interactions that occur during photosynthesis in plants and... -
IINS investigation of magnesium hydride in nanoscale confinement
In this experiment MgH_2 impregnated into active carbon will be investigated through IINS. Since it is known that the enthalpy of formation of a material is lowered by... -
Effect of polar solvent on the structure of monolayers of phospholipid
It is the aim of the proposal is to perform neutron reflectivity (NR) studies combined with contrast variation to determine the structure of phospholipid monolayers on a... -
Studying the hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde over Pt/MCM41 under flow
The proposal aims to use neutron scattering coupled with NMR spectroscopy to study the selective hydrogenation of a fragrance (cinnamaldehyde) to high value products. The study... -
Structural analysis of Kitaev spin liquid candidate beta-Li2IrO3 under pressure
The theoretical predication of Kitaev spin liquid in honeycomb iridates triggered tremendous interests. We recently discovered a new candidate material, beta-Li2IrO3 with a 3D... -

Neutronic Studies to Assess New Materials for Optimized Inverted Geometry Spe...
We request 7 days on VESUVIO to evaluate the neutronic performance of several materials used in inverted-geometry neutron spectrometers. In particular, we are interested in... -
Metastable Water Ice and Nitric Acid ¿ observing the phase changes
The IPCC report 2007 underlines the particular importance of aerosol particles for the water cycle and the radiation balance, and thus for the global climate. In Cirrus clouds... -
Characterisation of Pearlman's catalyst
Pearlman¿s catalyst is commonly used in various hydrogenation, arylation and O-debenzyaltion reactions. The catalyst is unusual that it is active but not pyrophoric. It is...
