    1. 113. Ten years of asking "why not?" at the SAXS/WAXS beamline

      Oral

      We have been using the SAXS/WAXS beamline extensively since it began operation to ask questions that we have not been previously able to address around lipids, lipid self-assembly, their behaviour under a wide range of stimuli, what that means for drugs where present, and what happens when we combine lipids with other materials at interfaces both spatially and temporally. In the process we...

    2. 101. Fluctuation powder diffraction of the lipidic cubic phase: a 3D view of lattice disorder

      Fluctuation scattering methods employ the statistical analysis of large scattering datasets to obtain a more accurate structural characterization of a material. Fluctuation methods were extensively developed for electron microscopy and are also topical in coherent x-ray imaging. We have developed novel fluctuation analysis methods for powder diffraction data to exploit extra structural...

    3. 43. Interfacial Structure of Tailorable Nanocarrier Emulsions: X-ray and Neutron Scattering Approaches.

      The oil/water interface is crucial to many industrial systems, for example emulsions (food, cosmetics, drug delivery and others), chemical extraction (both aqueous to organic and the subsequent back extraction). Tailorable nanocarrier emulsions (TNEs) are a novel class of oil-in-water emulsions stabilised by molecularly-engineered biosurfactants that permit single-pot stepwise surface...

    4. 21. Self-Assembly of Pluronic Polymers in Protic Ionic Liquids

      Development of alternate templating for mesoporous metals can contribute to various areas, including the development of novel battery electrodes and catalyst scaffolds. Due to their sol-gel properties and drastic rheology changes with temperature at high concentrations, Pluronic triblock copolymers in ionic liquids could potentially be used for templating applications. A high throughput study...

    5. 55. Lyotropic liquid crystal phase behavior of various amphiphiles in ternary protic ionic liquid containing solvents

      Oral

      Amphiphiles exhibiting micellar and higher order lyotropic mesophases in aqueous solvent environments have been extensively used in a broad range of applications such as detergents, sol-gel processes, biocatalysis, microencapsulation, nano-material synthesis and drug delivery [1, 2]. In recent years the use of non-aqueous solvents, or their binary/ternary mixtures, in self-assembly processes...
