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...

'Floating LSupported Bilayers' (FSB's) have become the 'standard' systems used for studying membrane systems using reflectivity at ISIS and other facilities. They are reliable,...

Second generation high temperature superconducting (2G HTS) tapes are one of the most rapidly developing branches of superconducting materials. The GdBaCuO tapes are more...

In recent years we have had considerable success with the surface modification of amorphous and crystalline thermal plastic polymers using multi-end functional additives. In...

Neutron reflection will be used to investigate the normal composition profile in thin films of blends of electron-donor poly(alkyl thiophene) and the electron-acceptor...

The material to be studied is nuclear graphite used in the core of the Gas-cooled Reactors in the UK. It is a non-replaceable component and therefore life-limiting. During...

In this proposal we investigate the adsorption of a key additive and functional group used in lubrication and wear applications using neutron reflection on a metal oxide...

Perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are stable compounds and commercially desirable. They are widely used, for example, as surfactants in textile and paper products and in aqueous...

It has been shown that gel particles are able to stabilize the oil-water interface and forming emulsions ( the so called "Pickering emulsions"). It has also been shown that...
