Structure of Cellulose Nanofibril Gels with Different Surfactants
This proposal is part of a project based on understanding the formation of gels in suspensions of partially oxidised cellulose nanofibrils and small amounts of additives, such... -
Aggregation behaviour in solution of cationic conjugated polymers and oligomers
In the proposed experiments we extend previous work on characterization of aggregates formed by cationic conjugated polymers and oligomers in water. Particular emphasis will be... -
Dynamics of amyloid protein fibril growth using isotope-labelled SANS
This proposal aims use a novel approach whereby deuterated amyloid peptide fibrils are givenhydrogenated growing ends, and analysed using SANS. The data will enable us to... -
Kinetics of the formation of eumelanin and its intermediates
The proposed research project is targeted to the investigation of the characteristics of eumelanin, a heterogeneous material insoluble in water and in any organic solvent, as... -
Composite Electrospun Fibres based on Food waste
Thus proposal seeks to explore the nature of electrospun composite fibres where the polymeric material contains a substantial quantity of biopolymer obtained from food waste -... -
Phase Separation in Organic Photovoltaic Cells
Organic photovoltaic (OPV) cells have the potential to be the basis of a renewable energy source that is inexpensive and portable. Current state-of-the-art solution-processed... -
Reversible folding-unfolding and structural study in protein-ionic liquid sys...
It has been recently shown that reversible thermal folding-unfolding, stabilization and high solubility of proteins (e.g. lysozyme) can be achieved when dissolved in protic...
