Shear driven assembly of magnetic nanoparticles close to a solid-liquid inter...
Ferro-fluids are liquids where magnetic nano-particles are dispersed in a solvent and are covered with surfactants to prevent clustering. If a magnetic field is applied to such... -
Interaction of a pH-sensitive Polymer with a Model Lipid Membrane in the Form...
This SANS experiment was proposed by 4 PhD students from 3 different institutions in a Marie-Curie Training Network. They are all in the second year of their PhD and their... -
Antimicrobial Mechanisms of Model Biocides via Their Interaction with Lipopol...
The global increase of bacterial resistance to antibiotics has led to increasing interest in research focusing on the development and characterization of new antimicrobial... -
Non fullerene organic photovoltics
Organic solar cells (OPVs) are photovoltaic devices that can convert the energy from sunlight into electricity and have attracted much attention as a viable green energy source... -
Wetting Transitions of Tackifiers in Adhesives
Migration and surface segregation of low molecular weight oligomers in adhesive formulations is a poorly understood, but hugely important phenomenon, responsible for most of the... -
Host-Guest Interactions at the Surface of a Cucurbit[8]uril Threaded Polymer
The increased use of polymers in engineering applications previously dominated by metals or ceramics gives the opportunity for direct tailoring of the surface characteristics... -

The global increase of bacterial resistance to antibiotics has led to increasing interest in research focusing on the development and characterization of new antimicrobial... -
Structural studies of thermo-responsive nanogels at the oil-water interface
Nanogels because of their three-dimensional physical structure and tunable chemical properties as well as their stimuli-responsive nature have emerged as one of the most... -
Interfacial properties of a lung protein after exposure to gas-phase ozone
Lung surfactant protein B, SP-B, is found at the air-water interface of the lung. A deficiency in SP-B at birth is known to be fatal. We have recently successfully studied the... -
Effect of calcium ions and ionic strength on model bilayer structure
Calcium ions have been shown in a preliminary experiment to have a dramatic effect on the thickness and structure of free supported bilayer films. In this proposal we... -
Detailed Structure of Phospholipid Bilayers from Multiple Contrast Neutron Re...
Floating bilayers are supported phospholipid membranes, which are minimally constrained by the influence of the substrate, and therefore considered to be more realistic than... -
Structure of Colloidal Crystals Near a Solid Surface
The structure of colloidal crystals (dispersions of particles that spontaneously order in a regular array) is known to be influenced by solid boundaries. However there are few... -
Gas-phase oxidation of insoluble monolayer at air-water interface with no equ...
The Earth¿s climate is strongly influenced by clouds. The oxidative processing of pollutants in clouds affects cloud droplet size and optical properties, important climatic... -
Interaction of deuterated thermo-responsive nanogels with lipid multilayers
Small gel molecules which can change their properties in response to, for example temperature are important for applications such as drug delivery through the skin. In order to... -
Structure of AOT layers at the sapphire water interface ¿ avoiding an isotope...
Several interesting results have emerged in studies of Aerosol-OT at the sapphire/solution interface that relate to effects of counter-ions, insensitivity to pH as well as the... -
Manipulating surface adsorption of SLES surfactants using temperature
Although surfactant detergency is well understood above 30 C, actions of surfactants below 30 C are not well established. In the era of energy saving and environment caring, we... -
Conformational change of glycerol faciliitator protein on substrate binding
A large family of membrane channel proteins selective for transport of water (aquaporins) or water plus glycerol (aquaglyceroporins) has been found in diverse life forms. E.... -
Co-adsorption and competitive adsorption of eggshell membrane polypeptide aga...
In this work we explore how to use neutron reflection to study the interfacial adsorption from a natural eggshell membrane polypeptide at the oil/water interface. We will then... -
