Caesium hydrogen sulfate, CsHSO4 is a solid acid proton conductor, which operates in the temperature range from 100 to 200 °C. Hence, it has potential application in...

We propose to perform a NDIS experiments at the SANDALS diffractometer at T = 300 K on 7 aqueous solutions of NMA and trehalose and NMA and glucose, aimed at investigating the...

We propose a series of neutron scattering measurement to determine the water structure in amorphous H2O/C60 fullerene vapour deposits. We believe that these samples, prepared by...

Supported palladium particles are used as catalysts in many processes. In the course of investigation of Pd-based catalysts used for the selective hydrogenation of nitro-arenes...

We wish to investigate the structural changes which arise when B2O3 is added to a bioactive phosphate glass. We are particularly interested to study the phosphate environment...

The cis-[Ru(bipy)2(PTA)2]Cl2, trans-[Ru(bipy)2(PTA)2]OTf2 ruthenium complexes are highly water soluble and luminescent in water at room temperature. Additionally, their optical...

6 days on Nimrod are requested to collect neutron total scattering data of 1M, 2M and 3M solutions of a α,ω-dicarboxylic acid, glutaric acid, and 2-methylimidazole...

The acetone - chloroform system is the classic textbook example of a negative-pressure azeotrope, i.e. the vapour pressures of the binary mixtures are lower than expected for...

A combination of high real-space resolution neutron diffraction and 27Al and 29Si NMR experiments will be used to measure the structure of glassy MgO-Al2O3-SiO2. A focus will be...

Neutron Resonance Capture Analysis (NRCA). NRCA is a valid and effective experimental tool for the elemental analysis of objects (e.g. the metallic ones), especially those of...

The solution chemistry of Pt(II) and Pd(II) cations has attracted experimental and theoretical attention because of their relevance in catalytic processes and the...

Optical applications of chalcogenide glasses need a wide transparency window in far IR. Promising glass systems include HgI2. We have synthesised three vitreous systems...

Using quasielastic neutron scattering (QENS) we will investigate the intercalation of Ciprofloxacin (CIPRO) into the synthetic clay Lithium – Fluorohectorite (LiFh) to...

Synthetic Georgite has shown high catalytic activity for a number of catalytic processes including methanol synthesis and the water gas shift reaction. Consequently, it is of...

The current state-of-the-art solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) electrolyte material, 8 mol% yttria stabilised zirconia (8YSZ), exhibits good performance at temperatures above 850 °C....

Aluminosilicate glasses are highly important in the glass manufacturing industry where they are used to make products that include the touch screens for cell phones and tablets....

This proposal is focused on developing an understanding of how surfaces affect the local structure of synthetic polymers. There is considerable evidence for a strong variation...

We request 5 days on Sandals to study the interactions of the neurotransmitters dopamine, L-dihydroxyphenylalanine and norepinephrine in aqueous solution. The interactions of...
