Fuels such as diesel contains different kinds of aromatic and poly aromatic compounds, which on their combustion emits environmental pollutants such as SOx, NOx, COx, and...

Lecithin is a natural zwitterionic gemini surfactant that self-assembles in a hydrocarbon solvent, forming spherical or ellipsoidal inverse micelles, which grow into giant...

The purpose is to follow a structural evolution as water soluble (normal curvature) micelles are gradually transformed into oil soluble (reversed curvature) aggregates. Although...

Many catalysts work by adsorbing molecules onto their surface to from a more concentrated phase, which increases the likelihood of reactants colliding, and reacting to form a...

The MuSES project currently ongoing in the HiFi spectrometer gives unique opportunity in the field of photochemistry and photophysics of organic molecules. After two successful...

Following a recently succesfull measurement of the structure of a monolayer of n-butane adsorbed on MgO we wish to perform neutron diffraction measurements of monolayers of...

Antioxidants are receiving increased attention for their potential effects in the prevention of chronic and degenerative diseases such as cancer and cardiovascular disease as...

The wetting of solid surfaces by gases and liquids is both fundamentally and technologically important especially in the areas of energy storage and conversion, e.g. catalysis....

The recovery of the muon polarization in a longitudinal magnetic field has been used to obtain the muon hfcs of organic radicals. In pure benzene there is a single step in the...

We request 7 days on TOSCA to carry out inelastic neutron scattering study of two novel multifunctional catalysts (Ru/Nb2O5Hx and Pd/Nb2O5Hx) for the efficient cleavage of C-O...

Microwave (MW) assisted chemical reactions are of interest as a green, energy efficient alternative to conventional thermal heating for chemical processes. MW irradiation...

The aim of this experiment is to investigate the change in conformation of a chiral polymer dissolved in hexafluoroisopropanol as the temperature of the system is varied....

The properties of liquids confined in zeolites will be studied by quasi-elastic neutron scattering. Alongside the data previously acquired using quasi-elastic neutron scattering...

The recovery of the muon polarization in a longitudinal magnetic field has been used to obtain the muon hfcs of organic radicals. In pure benzene there is a single step in the...

Polymer-protein conjugates have been designed to deliver an appropriate target growth factor to promote a more rapid healing of chronic wounds, an incredibly important area for...

Liquid phase heterogeneous catalysis makes up one the largest proportions of chemicalindustry. The catalysed phenyacetylene hydrogenation reaction is of great interest as it is...

The aim of this experiment is to investigate surfactant aggregation in ionic liquids and also ionic liquid ¿ oil and ionic liquid ¿ water microemulsions via SANS. Contrast...

Contrast-variation SANS (CV SANS) will be used to determine how surfactant inverse micelles interact with model metal oxide colloids. By using deuterated surfactant (D-AOT) with...

In a previous experiment (RB910492) we have made preliminary measurements of the rates of addition of muonium to vitamins C and E, as suggested by the ISIS panel. These rates...

Diffusion of a range of cyclic hydrocarbons relevant to the nylon production process will be measured in the potential catalyst Pt/MCM-41 in the context of the benzene...
