The aim of the study is to use SANS in combination with contrast variation to determine the effect of solubilising the lipophilic drug, testosterone propionate, in micelles...

Polymers with specific functional groups on their main chains or side chains can interact with each other either in solution or in bulk, forming interpolymer complexes, for...

Solventless protein liquids (SPLS) represent a novel form of biological matter. Recently we reported on the preparation and properties of a solvent-free liquid protein based on...

This proposal is centered on the preparation of nanoscale fibres prepared by electrospinning and is the focus of the final year PhD programme of Saeed Mohan. These experiments...

Recent results show that gold nanoparticles (Au-NPs) can be included into microgels (MGs). UV-visible spectra (Figure 1) suggest the original Au-NP sols retain their size and...

SANS is about the only technique that can determine the size and shape of surfactant micelles and the subsequent changes upon pesticide solubilisation. The aim of this work is...

The development of new nanomaterials for agricultural and environmental applications is a topical field. To control loading of the bioactive agents and their subsequent release,...

In collaboration with Infineum (a world-leading engine-oil additive company), we propose a SANS study of self-assembly of novel polymethacrylate (PMA) block copolymers as a...

This proposal forms part of an ongoing project concerning interpenetrating network gels of starch and cellulose being developed towards applications in personal care and...
