Topic
Probing Gel Structure using Scattering – an Insight into Designing New Soft Materials
Presenter:
Dr Annela Seddon from University of Bristol, UK
Summary
In order to be able to design new soft materials, such as gels, understanding how they form is a critical first step. Bulk measurements, like rheology, provide excellent information on their properties, but understanding their structure can be more challenging. In this talk I will show how combining small angle x-ray and neutron scattering can give insight into gel formation and how seemingly subtle changes in the molecular chemistry of gelators can lead to sometimes unexpected new outcomes.
Registration fee
