Characterisation of the gamma prime precipitate distribution in an advanced N...
The excellent high temperature properties of Ni-base superalloys are derived from the presence of fine precipitates of the intermetallic Ni3Al phase, termed gamma prime. The... -
Polymer-Lipid Nanodisc Self-assembly Processes Using Stop Flow
Polymer stabilized lipid nanodiscs offer enormous potential as tools for enabling membrane protein structural studies & biophysics. Polymer stabilized lipid bilayer discs... -
Microdomains in model membranes using contrast variation SANS
In the present proposal small angle neutron scattering will be used in combination with contrast variation as a non-invasive method to detect the presence and size formation of... -
Studying Electron Freezing and The Emergence of Static Magentic Order in Nb a...
One of the technological goals is to create materials that show high permittivity and low dielectric loss, which has been achieved by the co-doping of Nb and In into rutile... -
Controlling diblock co-polymer morphologies via selective solvent annealing
Diblock co-polymers consist of two polymer chains with different chemical properties tied together at a central linking block. The interactions between the two blocks result in... -
Micellar modifiers for CO2
This proposal focuses on a new approach to the formation of rod-like micelles in supercritical CO2 (scCO2). Recent successful high-pressure SANS (HP-SANS) results have shown for... -
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... -
The formation of elongated aggregates in supercritical CO2 through the mixing...
This proposal involves manipulating the curvature of aggregated polar materials in supercritical CO2 (scCO2) by tuning the mixing ratio of fluorocarbon (FC) and hydrocarbon (HC)... -
Novel gels with supercritical carbon dioxide
This proposal is to probe the gel structure with High Pressure SANS (HP-SANS) using an in-line pressure cell. The ability to control the properties of supercritical CO2,... -
Tuning morphology of nonionic highly-methylated surfactant/water/CO2 assemblies
This proposal aims to explore a cheaper and more environmental-benign surfactants for microemulsion formation in CO2; in other words, a low fluorine containing... -

Are hydrotropes a unique class of solutes?
The aim is to improve understanding of solution properties and aggregation of hydrotropes and alkyl¿hydrotropes, and the relationship with common surfactants. Although they are... -
Unravel Stabilization Mechanism of CO2 Foams under High Temperature and High ...
Long-term stable CO2 foams were generated under high temperature (120 ºC) and high pressure (12 MPa) (HPHT) in our laboratory using a C22-tailed weak cationic surfactant,... -
Multi-catalyst ensembles - aggregation structure and selectivity
There is exciting potential for SANS to resolve an important problem in homogeneous catalyst chemistry. The Pd-chiral catalyst 1+ below has significant pan-industrial potential...
