Hydration of phenylalanine at high pressure
Much of the detail regarding the causes of pressure-induced unfolding has been revealed from molecular dynamics simulations. However, these simulations have focused mainly on... -
INS Evaluations of the Interactions of Mustard Gas Mimetics and Decomposition...
The decontamination of chemical weapons is a subject of intense political and scientific scrutiny. Copper oxide (CuO) nanoparticles (NP) have proven efficiency in the safe... -
Hydrocarbon Fluid Structures in Nanoconfinement
Shale or tight oil is trapped in nano-porous rocks and is expected to play a key role in the energy supply in the future. Due to confinement, trapped fluids exhibit changes in... -
High-Pressure Structural Behaviour of 2,2,2-trifluoro-ethanol
In the mono-alcohols (ROH) there is a competition between the packing requirements of the R-group and for the hydroxyl groups to be sufficiently close for hydrogen bonding to... -
The structure of nanographenes in solution
In this proposal we will study the structure of metal-ammonia solutions containing single graphene sheets by exploiting H/D isotopic labelling in conjunction with NIMROD¿s... -

The origin of the dissolution of cellulose in alkali/urea aqueous solution
Cellulose is produced over tens of billions of tons every year in the world. It is one of the most abundant natural polymer resources. Compared with petroleum-based polymers,... -
Molecular interactions in amorphous paracetamol
The appearance of multiple crystal forms is one of the bottlenecks in pharmaceutical formulation. To date the result of a crystallisation experiment cannot be predicted and we... -
Exploring Multiferroic Couplings in Ca2MnO4
The Ruddlesden-Popper (RP) compounds An+1BnO3n+1 exhibit a broad range of technologically interesting properties such as high-Tc superconductivity, colossal magnetoresistance,... -
Morphology of poly(ethylene-oxide)-ionic liquid mixtures: the role of hydroge...
We propose to explore the morphology of binary mixtures of poly(ethylene oxide), a biomimetic macromolecule, and two different ionic liquids, differing in their hydrogen bonding... -
The role of water in homogeneous catalytic processes mediated by water solubl...
A large number of chemicals are currently obtained by catalytic synthetic processes, but usually in most of these processes the catalyst remains in the reaction medium during... -
Diamond anvil cell for a combined X-ray and neutron diffraction study of glycine
High pressure is a powerful thermodynamic tool, like temperature, to vary the properties and structure of materials. X-ray and neutron diffraction can be used to measure certain... -
Structural behaviour of gallium in phosphate glasses for bone cements
Bone cements are an important class of biomaterial used in hard tissue surgery as well as periodontology. Many of these are glass-ionomer cements formed from an aluminosilicate... -
Study of structural and phase transitions of carbon dioxide confined in the n...
When fluids are confined in pores with dimensions in the nanoscale, their properties differ from the bulk mainly due to the solid-fluid interactions and the finite pore size.... -
The structure of metal-ammonia Ogg glasses
In this application we will conduct the first detailed study of the structure of glassy metal-ammonia systems ? so-called Ogg glasses, named after the person who first proposed... -
Solvation and structure of lithium in bis{(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl}imide bas...
The use of ionic liquids for electrochemical devices such as supercapacitors, dye sensitised solar cells and lithium ion batteries has led to significant advances in technology.... -
Interaction of the counteracting osmolytes TMAO and urea in aqueous solutions
TMAO is a naturally occurring protecting osmolyte which stabilizes proteins and influences intermolecular interactions. Like some other osmolytes it counteracts the effects of... -
Pressure dependence on the isomorphic phase transition in KOs2O6
We are requesting 5 days of beamtime on HRPD to measure powder diffraction patterns of KOs2O6 under He gas high pressure up to 150 MPa. KOs2O6 exhibits a novel phase transition... -
A joint experimental and theoretical study of supercritical mixtures
In our daily life, we are aware that liquid and its vapour can coexist. As we increase the temperature and pressure, however, there is a point called the critical point where... -
Spin anisotropy in the isovalent doped iron pnictides Ba0.9Sr0.1Fe2As2
Understanding the electronic anisotropic state at a temperature associated with the nematic phase is unresolved problems in iron pnictides. Although many experiments focus on...
