Contrast Variation Experiments for Probing the Structure of Pickering Nanoemu...
Polymerisation-induced self-assembly is an efficient and versatile method of producing functional block copolymer spheres, worms and vesicles in a range of media (e.g. water,... -
Is there a CMC for surfactants in non-aqueous solvents?
The aim of this project is to use SANS to determine if a critical micelle concentration (CMC) exists for the formation of inverse micelles in non-polar solvents. The CMC is a... -
Quad-chain surfactants for CO2
In recent years much progress has been made in the design of surfactants that are soluble in liquid CO2; hence these additives able to modify physicochemical properties... -
A new approach to viscosity enhancement of oils and CO2
Due to the naturally low viscosity of liquid CO2 (0.1-1.0 cP pressure/temperature dependent) the CO2 is prone to ¿fingering¿, limiting the efficiency of CO2-EOR [1]. In order to...
