Soluble pentacene derivatives are high performing semiconductors for use in organic transistors offering low cost solution processability, and potential for migration to...

Asphaltenes are a complex and problematic fraction of crude oil that can precipitate, block pipeline and foul refineryequipment. Asphaltenes have a high proportion of aromatic...

The interface of CaCO3 (calcite) and water is of paramount importance in a number of key academic and industrial areas, including scale deposition in domestic and industrial...

Asphaltenes are the heaviest end of crude oil and are responsible for a multitude of engineering challenges. They can precipitate from the oil, depositing, blocking pipelines...

This proposal will exploit the unique ability of neutron reflection to characterise the adsorption of a key additive on the surface of calcite from a non-aqueous solvent and the...

This experiment is focused on the use of the unique capability of Nimrod to study the crystallisation of polymers from solution. We wish to obtain high quality time-resolved...

Polymer-protein conjugates have been designed to deliver an appropriate target growth factor to promote a more rapid healing of chronic wounds, an incredibly important area for...

Calcium carbonate is one of the most abundant minerals at the Earth’s surface and plays a large role in the chemistry of aquatic environments, as well as being the main...

Benzotriazole (BTAH) is a very effective corrosion inhibitor for copper and its alloys in both water and in oils. BTAH is introduced as a corrosion inhibitor in oil based...

The proposal aims to explore water-in-CO2 (w/c) microemulsions with new, very promising hydrocarbon surfactants. The compounds are generated using standard chemistry1 but with...
