How aggregate lifetimes affect the kinetics of surfactant surface multilayer ...
The spontaneous formation of multilayer structures at interfaces from surfactant self-assembly is an important structural signature associated with a wide range of technological... -
Concentrated emulsions as proxy CO2 thickeners
The proposal aims to explore the oil-in-water (brine) high internal phase emulsion systems (HIPEs) formed by nonylphenol ethoxylate surfactants using contrast variation SANS... -
Assessing a new system of hard sphere colloids using spin-echo SANS
We have recently developed a new system of refractive-index matched nanoparticles. This system has advantages over a extensively used one of polymer latexes; ours 1) can be... -
SANS study of hollow nanoparticles and their solvent release
Hollow nanoparticles (HNP) have been successfully used for encapsulation and controlled release of biochemicals such as drugs, DNA, and dyes. However no in-situ method has been... -
Surfactant mixtures including a newly designed N-oxide
The applications of surfactant formulations based on N,N dimethylalkylamine oxides (AO) are dramatically increasing. The most widely used AO is the N,N-dimethyldodecyl-1-amine... -
Solution Aggregation of Short Peptide Amphiphiles
Short peptide sequences consisting of hydrophobic and hydrophilic amino acid units are capable of self-assembly, leading interfacial adsorption and solution nano-aggregation.... -
Interactions between Polymer-Surfactant Mixtures and Single-Walled Carbon Nan...
Carbon nanotubes are of great interest due to their unique properties, such as their high aspect ratio and electrical conductivity. Many possible applications of CNTs require... -
Conformational changes of human growth hormone driven by the interaction with...
The tale of protein-surfactant interactions has been the goal of many scientific investigations in the last few decades. The interaction between proteins and amphiphiles in...
