QENS analysis of industrially relevant small pore zeolites
NOx emissions from the energy and transport sectors represent a major hazard to human health and this has been the focus of significant industrial and academic research. One of... -
The Effect of Framework Structure and Composition on Controlled Drug Release ...
The mobility of beta-blocker and angina/hypertension drug atenolol in zeolites FAU and BEA will be probed using QENS to understand the importance of fundamental... -
Investigating the diffusion of E-caprolactam in hierarchically-porous catalys...
Caprolactam (CL) is a high-value chemical and precursor to nylon-6. Industrially, a harsh, liquid-acid catalyst effects the Beckmann rearrangement of C6-oxime to CL, but the... -
Cation reorientation dynamics in a hybrid Prussian blue analogue
The cubic pores in many Prussian blue analogues are big enough to contain organic cations. In the material (HIm)2K[Fe(CN)6], the imidazolate guest cation is free to rotate in... -
QENS Study of Proton Diffusion in Metal-Organic Framework Materials
The development of new functional metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as complex proton conductor is receiving increasing attention worldwide. We aim to develop new solid proton... -
Towards Active Site Orientation Kinetics in Solution with Quasielastic Neutro...
Catalysts are used in virtually all industrial chemical transformations to control reaction pathways by directing the environment around the reactant. Many structural... -
A QENS Study of Benzyl Phenyl Ether, a Lignin Model Compound, on a Hydrodeoxy...
Bio-oil is an alternative and renewable energy from biomass, however, its high content of oxygenates result in low heating values and chemical/thermal instability. One effective... -

Investigating the diffusion of cyclic oximes in hierarchically-porous catalys...
Caprolactam (CL) is a high-value chemical precursor to nylon-6. On an industrial scale an aggressive liquid-acid catalyst is used to transform C6-oxime to CL. Due to... -
Probing the dynamics of silica supported imidazolium halide catalysts for car...
Atmospheric levels of CO2 are increasing at uncontrolled levels and as such methods of CO2 utilisation are being researched. A key reaction for this purpose is the coupling of... -
Study of the protein denaturation in glassy matrices
The proposed experiment is addressed to use the MARI spectrometer to study the thermal denaturation process of the psychrophile enzyme alpha-amylase in presence of bioprotectant... -
Network compression and pressure-induced amorphisation in Zn(CN)2
Zn(CN)2 is an important material because it shows isotropic NTE over a large temperature range and to an extent more than double that of ZrW2O8. This unusual behaviour... -
Isotope effects in the dynamics of hydrogen bonded liquids
An investigation into the dynamics of diffusion in water and methanol when different isotopic ratios are used. This aims to clarify the extent of any adverse effects when... -
Characterisation of intermediates in the production of eta-caprolactam
The commercially important polymer Nylon 6 is manufactured by ring-opening polymerization of eta-caprolactam. Industrially, eta-caprolactam is made by the Beckmann rearrangement... -

Understanding Structure-Direction of Organic Molecules in Zeolite Synthesis t...
The mobility of zeolite structure directing agent (SDA) 1,2,3-triethylimidazolium (TEI) when still confined in zeolites MFI and STF after synthesis will be measured using... -
Negative thermal expansion in ReO3: anomalous variation with temperature
ReO3 is a well-known oxide framework with unusual thermal expansion behaviour, exhibiting multiple regions of both positive and negative thermal expansion (NTE). We propose to...
