Phase separation in confined polymer blends studied by SERGIS
We intend to study the phase separation morphology of confined polymer blends. Interface forces will impose morphologies different from those in the bulk. In our experiments the... -
Development of a Novel Low - Intermediate Temperature Solid Proton Conductor
The compound, Si5O(PO4)6, is a component of a solid phosphoric acid catalyst, it has highly unusual coordination of the silicon (octahedral, as well as the more common... -
In situ characterisation of the process zone in high porosity graphite
Nuclear graphite, usually used as a moderator in the reactor core, is a typical quasi-brittle material. It is multi-phase, aggregated and porous. During service, neutron... -
Particle dispersions in ODS Nano-Structured Ferritic Alloys
Oxide-dispersion-strengthened (ODS) materials are under development for use in applications in both nuclear fission and nuclear fusion power generation. The materials offer... -
The Interactions of Blood Components with Models of the Gram Negative Bacteri...
One of the major challenges in the fight against antimicrobial resistance is the development of antimicrobial compounds that selectively disrupt bacterial membranes and leave... -
SANS study of self assembled structures formed from salicylate surfactant in ...
We wish to determine a structure we have observed in a dodecane/surfactant/water system. Initial experimentation has suggested the possibility of spontaneous formation of a... -
Protein Adsorption at the PDMS Oil/Water Interface
Neutron reflection has been successfully used to measure the conformation of proteins adsorbed at the oil/water interface. However, in several such experiments, hexadecane has...
