Characterisation of self-assembly in cationic-oligoanion mixtures: from micel...
The proposal is part of an EPSRC funded programme (EP/GR065705) on surfactant multilayer structures, and involves the interaction between ionic surfactants and oligoions. It... -
Surfactant and Polymer Adsorption on Pyrite Thin Films
Pyrite (FeS2) is a hydrophobic mineral surface, i.e. of a type thus far inaccessible to the types of aqueous adsorption experiments suitable for study by reflectometry (NR), but... -
On the peculiarities of the structure of particle stabilised foam
Many formulated products pass through or end up as foams, comprising immiscible millimeter sized bubbles dispersed into an aqueous continuous phase. Frequently, surfactants or... -
Formulating polymer solutions to stabilise polymeric foams
Polyurethane foams (PUF) are commonly prepared by mixing Pluronic type copolymers and isocyanate reactive monomers in the presence of additives e.g. catalysts, blowing agents...
