Summary on Grant Application Form
We propose to examine the potential of developments in time-resolved X-ray/CD measurements with stopped-flow fast mixing cells, and in ion-selective electrodes, for understanding the complex phase behaviour and time-dependent changes in multi-phase formulations comprised of crystals, mesophases and liquids. The research has potential applications to a wide range of speciality, healthcare and general household products. Success will give methods for improved product performance and more efficient product formulation/development, leading to a reduction in the time required to market new products - a key requirement in the global economy.
