The dataset consists of continuous measurements of global, direct and diffuse spectral irradiance and aerosol optical thickness during Polarstern cruises PS83, PS95, PS98, PS102...

This proposal is part of a project based on understanding the formation of gels in suspensions of partially oxidised cellulose nanofibrils and small amounts of additives, such...

Recent SAXS measurements have indicated that CO2 can dramatically swell the surfactant layer in w/o microemulsions formed in CO2-swollen oils and also enhance solubilisation...

Internally supported liposomes (ISLs) are composed of polymeric spheres enclosed by liposomes. Although very little research has been done on ISLs, understanding their...

The aim of the experiment is to employ SANS to study the physical properties of a novel and very stable aqueous Fe3O4 ferrofluid system stabilized by the commercially available...

The interface of CaCO3 (calcite) and water is of paramount importance in a number of key academic and industrial areas, including scale deposition in domestic and industrial...

We propose to use the new SANS2d to study the dynamic structural evolution in the couse of the formation of DNA-cationic polymer complexes. The dynamic process and the mixing...

In the present proposal small angle neutron scattering will be used in combination with contrast variation as a non-invasive method to detect the presence and size formation of...

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...

The idea is to be able to ¿dial-up¿ the length and properties of CO2-philic and organo-philic rod-like micelles. This proposal aims to explore mixed surfactant systems in...

Lubricants contain a complex mixtures of polymers and base oils that must provide protection to moving surfaces with minimal energy loss due to friction or viscous drag. There...

Gram negative bacteria cause a wide range of diseases including meningitis, bubonic plague, gonorrhoea, diarrhoea, Legionnaires' disease and cholera. Their outer membrane...

Recently, it is reported that the functional nucleosomes, CENP-A nucleosome, H2A.Bbd nucleosome and hexasome, which include variant histone cores, could have flexible and mobile...

We propose to look at the interaction of the aggregates two phospholipids form with two phospholipase (PL) enzymes, PLA2 and PLC, which hydrolyse different ester groups in the...

The formation of stable particle dispersions are essential to the success of a wide range of commercial products from inks, paints and foodstuffs to cosmetic and pharmaceutical...

This proposal involves manipulating the curvature of aggregated polar materials in supercritical CO2 (scCO2) by tuning the mixing ratio of fluorocarbon (FC) and hydrocarbon (HC)...

Lubricants contain a complex mixtures of polymers and base oils that must provide protection to moving surfaces with minimal energy loss due to friction or viscous drag. There...

AOT is also known to be very sensitive to the concentration and nature of counter-ions. When adding a sufficient amount of divalent salt to an AOT solution, a very strong Bragg...

The increasing incidence of pathogenic fungi resistant to treatment with amphotericin B (AmB) has created a demand for novel anti-fungal agents. The successful development of...

In this proposal we request beamtime to study the unexpected behaviour of a strongly bound bilayer of the cationic surfactant didodecyldimethylammonium bromide on the anionic...
