Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries are a promising energy storage technology for application where high performance, lightweight batteries are needed, such as in certain aerospace and electrical vehicle (EV) applications. This project focuses on the development of Quasi-Solid-State Li-S batteries that have the potential to significantly enhance the number of...

In civil and mechanical engineering, the design process is done almost entirely by computer. Similarly, a long-held goal in formulated product (FP) design is to shift from an ad-hoc labour-intensive process towards a more robust and adaptive computer aided formulation (CAF) paradigm. Significant progress has been made over the last two decades in utilizin...

To embed solid state NMR analysis into the R&D characterisation suite to study the structure of lubricant additives on a molecular scale. The new knowledge generated will enable product development that will deliver improved fuel economy and reduced emissions.

Unilever, Syngenta and Infineum, together with STFC Daresbury and Novidec, have recognised the potential of mesoscale modelling to drive a radical change in speed of formulated product design for manufacturability and in-use performance. Although applications to both material and manufacturing process design have been demonstrated, modelling is not always...
