The impact of synthetic perfumes on surfactant self-assembly.
This proposal is part of a broad collaboration between Oxford, CCLRC, and Unilever in the study of surfactants and mixed surfactants at interfaces and in solution. This is an... -
Self-assembly in biosurfactants and biosurfactant / surfactant mixtures
This proposal is part of a new project which is a collaboration between Oxford, Newcastle, Ulster, and Unilever on the development of sustainable laundry detergents, using... -
Interaction of polypeptide with surfactant: SANS study of solution aggregation
This proposal constitutes part of our ongoing study towards understanding the solution aggregation of collagen based polypeptides and their interactions with model surfactants.... -
Phase Separation in Organic Photovoltaic Cells
Organic photovoltaic (OPV) cells have the potential to be the basis of a renewable energy source that is inexpensive and portable. Current state-of-the-art solution-processed... -
Emission Enhancing Micelles and Microemulsions for the Analytical Sciences
Nuclear power has played an important role in Britain¿s history and is set to play an equally important role in its future. We have recently established a network involving... -
Investigating Morphology and Phase Separation in Low-Donor Organic Solar Cell...
Organic photovoltaics (OPVs) are a class of solar cells that harvest photogenerated excitations ('excitons') and split them into free charges to generate electrical power. A... -
Peptide resistance in asymmetric MRSA-mimetic vesicles
We have been investigating the influcence of the cationic staphylococcal lipid lysyl-phosphatidylglycerol (L-PG) on bacterial resistance to antimicrobial peptides (AMPs). Using... -
A SANS Study on the Influence of Shear on Peptide Fibrillisation
Time-resolved SANS will be performed to investigate the effect of shear on the fibrillisation of insulin following denaturation. The rheological response will be measured... -
Investigating the internal structure of two-component polymer nanoparticles f...
The elucidation of the compositional profile inside the polymer nanoparticles is of critical importance for applications such as water processable organic solar cells. In order...
