30. SNSS Seminar Series: Neutron Diffraction, Speaker 1 - Surfactants, Solvents & Silica: Probing self-assembly in solution

Prof. Karen Edler (University of Bath)

The self-assembly of surfactant micelles is important in many applications from controlling the rheology and cleaning properties of personal care products to templating pore
structures in inorganic materials. The size and shape of cationic micelles can be controlled via their interaction with their soluble counter-anions, and this is well known to affect properties such as the critical micelle...

31. SNSS Seminar Series: Neutron Diffraction, Speaker 2 - Non-equilibrium phases and cation mixing in Li-rich rock salt derived positive electrode materials

Dr William Brant (Uppsala University)

11/05/2021, 13:30

Often within the domain of inorganic chemistry synthesis, focus is placed on obtaining ideal materials under equilibrium conditions in order to accurately study specific phenomena. However, while extremely valuable, these studies often do not represent the real structures which are formed when materials are utilized in an application or a device. This is particularly true in the case of...

32. SNSS Seminar Series: Neutron Diffraction, Speaker 3 - Magnetic diffraction: Exploring hidden magnetic symmetries

Dr Johan Cedervall (Stockholm University)

11/05/2021, 14:00

Magnetic materials are found everywhere and in all sorts of applications in the society today and new applications are constantly being developed. Some examples are generators in
windmills and electrical motors and magnetic cooling. In addition, to effectively operate a generator, it requires several types of specialised magnetic materials. To understand materials
magnetic behaviour, good...

33. SNSS Seminar Series: Neutron Diffraction, Speaker 4 - Additive manufacturing and neutron diffraction: Residual stress assessment and control

Prabhat Pant (Linköping University)

11/05/2021, 14:30

Additive manufacturing (AM) of components made out of metals using powder and laser has been in increasing demand especially in the sector of aerospace, medical sectors, etc. With AM, parts with complex geometries can be manufactured easily in comparison to the traditional ones. However, with the ease of
manufacturing complex parts, several issues must be tackled to get a good quality party...
