Solventless protein liquids (SPLS) represent a novel form of biological matter. Recently we reported on the preparation and properties of a solvent-free liquid protein based on...

We have recently developed a method to prepare a wide variety of amphiphilic diblock copolymers through a supramolecular linkage that is stable in water. This has been achieved...

Fibres with submicron diameters are commonly formed by two techniques, electrospinning , and centrifugal force spinning; in both cases polymer solutions are subjected to forces,...

The human body has a well developed membrane chemistry which allows transport of fluids and salts whilst preventing other molecules and harmful agents from penetrating the cell....

Centrifugal force spinning is a technique that has recently come into light as an easy route to producing large quantities of nano- to micro- scale polymer fibres in a short...

It has been recently shown that reversible thermal folding-unfolding, stabilization and high solubility of proteins (e.g. lysozyme) can be achieved when dissolved in protic...

This proposal forms part of an ongoing project concerning interpenetrating network gels of starch and cellulose being developed towards applications in personal care and...
