Bi-disperse colloids: silica and microemulsions
Surprisingly little work has been done to gain understanding about the nature, stability and properties of nanoparticles dispersed in organic solvents (organosols). Recently... -
Thin Water Layers
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... -
Photo-reactive surfactants for nanoparticle generation
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....
