Is dynamic asymmetry the essential ingredient in the (universal?) 'strong-fra...
We want to elucidate whether the so-called ¿strong-fragile¿ transition reported for water mixtures is a universal phenomenon driven by confinement effects originated by the... -
Study of the mobility of thermoresponsive nanogels into a lipid bilayer
The transport of thermal responsive nanogel through ceramide lipid bilayers will be studied as a function temperature. This is study is important in designing an efficient drug... -

High pressure structural studies of halogen bonded systems
We propose a high-pressure neutron powder diffraction study of three halogen-bonded complexes, namely trimethylamine:ICl, 1,4-dioxane:(IBr)2 and pyridine:IBr. These are some of... -
Cross-linked Electrospun Fibres containing Cellulose
In this proposal we shall explore the nature of electrospun fibres produced from blends of cellulose and polystyrene which we shall use as a model to develop high strength... -
Kinetic study of nucleation, phase formation and transformations in bioactive...
We aim to study the kinetics of phase formation and transformation during the crystallisation of apatite from amorphous degradable bioactive glasses used as a treatment for... -
Probing the nuclear and magnetic structure of a complex ferromagnetic semicon...
Understanding the structures of complex materials is key understanding their properties. Here we wish to determine the structure, both atomic and magnetic, of a complex... -
Self-assembly of low surface energy surfactants
The research topic is Low surface energy materials (LSEMs), and development of new hydrocarbon (HC) architectures as replacements for environmentally hazardous fluorocarbon... -
Amorphous Micrometre-Sized Water Ice Particles for Planetary Science Experime...
We request 5 days on NIMROD to characterise the pressure and temperature dependent properties of amorphous icy particles generated in liquid ethane, as they will be used in... -

Contrast-matching experiments to quantify pore connectivity in dolomites
Geologists are increasingly realizing the unique perspective that neutron scattering offersforunlocking the complex geologic histories of rocks. In this study, we propose to... -
Understanding the skin barrier design: identifying the conformation of cerami...
The stratum corneum layer of the skin acts as a barrier between the body and the external environment. This is achieved by dead corneocytes encased in a lamellar lipid matrix,... -
Neutron Reflection of Cetyltrimethylammonium Bromide (C16TAB) at the Mica Wat...
An understanding of surfactant aggregation on clay surfaces is important for detergency processes such as cleaning and pollutant removal. Studies have shown that the adsorbed... -
CO2-philic Low Surface Energy Surfactants for applications in Enhanced Oil Re...
In recent years, there has been an enormous interest in the study of surfactants for supercritical CO2 (scCO2). One important potential application of these materials is in... -
How does tendency to adopt different secondary structures from antimicrobial ...
This work aims to exploit the unique capability of neutron reflection to examine how 2 antimicrobial lipopeptides that tend to adopt different secondary structures bind to model... -
Investigation into the reversibility of TiCl4 doped NaALH4
Hydrogen Storage still remains the technology bottleneck for a more widespread use of hydrogen. Solid complex hydrides such as amides, alanates and borohydrides have been... -
Magnetic fluctuations in the presence of charge order RbFe2+Fe3+F6
We propose to investigate the magnetic fluctuations in a charge ordered magnet. Rb(Fe2+Fe3+)F6 is loosely based on a distorted Kagome framework with alternating chains of... -
