Sensing SO2 in Robust Porous MOF Materials via Simultaneous Microwave Dielect...
We seek to develop new MOFs for sensing and removal of toxic gases (e.g., SO2) and request 4 days on POLARIS to study the structural binding details and dielectric data... -
Decomposition studies of Li(1-x)NaxND2, LiNa2(ND2)3 and Li3Na(ND2)4
We ask for 3 days on GEM to study in-situ the decomposition of the Na-substituted LiNH2 phases, Li1-xNaxND2, LiNa2(ND2)3, Li3Na(ND2)4 and their reactions with LiD. LiNH2 is the... -
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... -
Copy of: Division of the supercritical fluid state into liquid- and gas-like ...
In recent years, the long-standing belief that beyond the critical point, matter exhibits no clear transition between liquid-like and gas-like states has been questioned. A line... -
Investigation of the magnetism and multiferroic properties in the MOF Cu--gua...
Multiferroic materials which exhibit both ferroelectric and (anti)ferromagnetic ordering are of great technological importance offering the potential for the design of novel... -
IN-SITU NEUTRON DIFFRACTION STUDIES OF METAL-HYDRIDE HYDROGEN STORAGE MATERIALS
Recently [RB 900007], we have demonstrated that it is possible to determine the detailed site-by-site behaviour of hydrogen during in-situ absorption and desorption in metal... -
Low-energy spin dynamics of a quantum analogue of ice
Quantum spin liquids are exotic states of magnetic matter in which conventional magnetic ordering is suppressed. Magnetic analogues of ice are good candidates to observe this... -
Understanding the Pressure Response in Amines: Weak hydrogen-bonding vs Non-b...
Methylamines are an ideal chemical system to study in order to understand the effects of steric bulk and competing non-bonding interactions on hydrogen bonding at the networks... -
Local microstructure investigations of lignin-derived hard carbon
Sodium ion batteries (NIB) are promising alternatives to the current lithium ion batteries: sodium is cheap, sustainable, and has similar properties to lithium. Search for an... -
Formation of hard carbon from carbonized biowaste and in situ neutron study
hard carbon are promising anodes for sodium ion batteries, due to their high capacity and green production from biowaste. However, they require treatment at very high... -
In-situ analysis of martensite transformation in Austempered Ductile Iron
The microstructure of austempered ductile iron (ADI) consists of high carbon autenite and bainitic ferrite along with graphite nodules, which is created by austenitising and... -
Hydrogen production from ammonia using lithium imide: an isotope study
We have recently discovered that light metal amides and imides are excellent cattalysts for the decomposition of ammonia. We request 3 days on POLARIS to perform in situ neutron... -
In-Situ Study of thermal Stability of MAX Phases in Vacuum at Elevated Temper...
Ti2AlN and Ti4AlN3 are MAX phases that exhibit a unique combination of the characteristics of both ceramics and metals coupled with an unusual combination of mechanical,...
