Micro-, Meso-, Macro- Structure and Dynamics of Biocompatible Dental Glass Io...
Glass Ionomer Cements (GICs) have found numerous applications as bone fillers, replacements and adhesives, particularly in dentistry due to their tooth like appearance and... -
Compartmentalised Supramolecular Structures through CB[8]-mediated Hierarchic...
We have recently developed a method to prepare a wide variety of amphiphilic diblock copolymers through a supramolecular linkage that is stable in water. This has been achieved... -
Atomic and Ionic Mobility in Glass Ionomer Cements (GICs)
A proposal is made to measure atom/ion mobility/diffusion in GIC samples. Vesuvio is ideal to explore diffusion of ions bound by ~0.5-5eV bond energies and covalently bound... -
Capture and isolation of radicals by green tea antioxidants
Molecular modelling suggests that the antioxidant molecule EGCG "folds up" around the radical it captures, and therefore should shield the spin density from the environment.... -
Green vs Black Tea Anti-oxidant Potency as a Function of Fermentation Complet...
Since ancient times it has been known that using boiling water to prepare tea ¿burns¿ the brew destroying the teas flavours & beneficial nutrients. One aspect of a ¿burnt¿... -
Tracking Temperature-Dependency of Setting Dynamics in Bioactive Glass Compos...
Demand for new medical & biomaterials with elevated longevities is accelerating through the ageing of the population. The historic implantation of foreign materials into the...
