Encapsulation in Mixed Cat-anionic Surfactant Polymer Films
This proposal continues our investigations into polyelectrolyte-surfactant films at the air-solution interface. Using mixtures of cationic and anionic surfactants (CTAB/SDS) we... -
Templating of titania films in cationic-anionic surfactant polymer solutions
In this proposal we wish to continue our recent work using polyelectrolyte-surfactant films as templates for inorganic structures, in this case titania.... -
Time Resolved Studies on Inorganic Film Formation at the Air-Solution Interface
In a recent SURF experiment on the formation of silica films templated with cat-anionic/polymer complexes we found that the film growth and evolution occurs on a faster time... -
Effect of Aging Temperature on Inorganic Films Templated by Polymer-Surfactan...
Recently we have been investigating the mineralization of polymer-surfactant films to create thicker and more robust self-supporting membranes. Our previous experiments used the... -
Large Scale Structure in CTAB/SDS-Polymer Solutions
This proposal continues our investigations into polyelectrolyte-surfactant solutions which form films at the air-solution interface. We have found that solutions of mixed... -
Structure formation in catanionic surfactant/polymer templated inorganic film...
Recently we have been investigating the mineralization of polymer-surfactant films to create thicker and more robust self-supporting membranes. Our previous experiments used the... -
Encapsulation of hydrophobic species into cat-anionic micelles in polymer sol...
This proposal continues our investigations into film forming polyelectrolyte-surfactant solutions. We have found that mixed cat-anionic micelle systems offer greater control...
