Nanostructure in Ionic Liquid mixtures
In recent SANDALS experiments, we showed that simple ionic liquids (ILs) ethylammonium nitrate (EAN) and ethanolammonium nitrate (EtAN) are structurally hetereogeneous, with... -
CYCLODEXTRIN-ENCAPSULATION OF PLATINUM-BASED ANTICANCER DRUGS
The goal of the present proposal is the study of supramolecular nanoencapsulation of platinum-based anticancer agents, by INS spectroscopy. A chemically modified cyclodextrin... -
Understanding Amphiphilic Self-Assembly in and by Protic Ionic Liquids
The goal of this project is to understand the intermolecular forces that promote amphiphile self assembly in ethylammonium nitrate (EAN), a room temperature ionic liquid (IL).... -
Reversible folding-unfolding and structural study in protein-ionic liquid sys...
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... -
Salts Dissolved in Salts: Ionic Liquid + inorganic salt mixtures
Ionic liquids (ILs) are low melting point organic salts that until recently were thought to have homogeneous microstructure. In recent SANDALS research,1 we showed pure ILs are... -
Effect of Variation in the Anion on the Bulk Nanostructure of Protic Ionic Li...
In a recently published note we presented the first experimental evidence (obtained using the LoQ instrument at ISIS) for nanoscale segregation of short (< C4) alkyl chain... -
Meso- and micro-structure of protic ionic liquid / methanol mixtures
Protic ionic liquids (PILs) are an interesting sub-class of room temperature ionic liquids. They differ from conventional, a protic ionic liquids, because of the major role...
