Ageing of Laponite-water solutions
We require beam time on NIMROD in order to complete and continue a previous experiment (RB1010046) on Laponite - water suspensions. We have succesfully performed the experiment... -
Structural characterization of water confined in MCM-41
By combining NDIS experiment and EPSR simulation we have been able to show with a previous experiment (RB 720500) two main phenomena for water confined in the MCM silica matrix.... -
Arrested states of clay-water suspensions
The unprecedented simultaneous accessibility of the low and high Q region available on NIMROD allows to tackle the issue of ageing of colloidal systems from the point of view of... -
Water proton's environment in Low Density and Very High Density Amorphous Ices
Amorphous polymorphism is one of the key concepts in our understanding of water, its structure, physical properties and anomalies. The basic idea is that liquid water at ambient... -
The effect of confinement on the structure of alcohol-water mixtures
Compared with gas phase reactions, liquid phase catalytic processes are complex due to the effect of the solvent. The solvent controls many aspects of the overall reaction...
