This proposal aims to explore cheap and environmental-benign cosurfactants (or cosolvents) for yielding CO2-philic hydrocarbon surfactant/water/CO2 microemulsions (W/CO2...

Surprisingly little work has been done to gain understanding about the nature, stability and properties of nanoparticles dispersed in organic solvents (organosols). Recently...

The aim of this proposal is to determine the thickness of a water layer surrounding colloidal particles dispersed in oil with changes in ionic strength. Recent work by our group...

The aim is to employ contrast variation CV-SANS to investigate structure in novel systems used to generate metal-containing nanoparticles on organic solvents by UV irradiation....

For twenty years scientists have been searching for surfactants able to solubilise water nano-domains in supercritical carbon dioxide, scCO2 (as water-in-scCO2 microemulsions,...
