abstract NMR relaxation analysis provides a unique and non-invasive probe of fluid
dynamics within porous materials, and may be applied to the interpretation of a wide variety …

Commonly used in aerospace, automotive, marine, defense, electronic, and manufacturing
industries, epoxy adhesives offer advantages over mechanical joints by providing stronger …

Hybrid materials are an interesting class, with a wide variety of functionalities and good
customisability of active sites. They have the potential to combine the heterogeneity of their …

Developing processes for producing oxygen-containing commodity chemicals from biomass
has garnered considerable attention. Biomass-derived sugars have the potential to …

Molecular diffusion and surface dynamics within two covalent organic frameworks (COFs)
have been investigated using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) pulsed-field gradient …

Understanding solid-fluid interactions within porous materials is critical for their efficient
utilisation across chemical reaction and separation processes. However, detailed …

The favorable exploitation of carbon nitride (CN) materials in photocatalysis for organic
synthesis requires the appropriate fine-tuning of the CN structure. Here, we present a deep …

The dynamics of fluids confined to porous solids are significantly influenced by adsorption
interactions at the solid-liquid interface, and further experience bulk-like liquid behaviour …

This dissertation investigates how two metal oxide supports (mesoporous silica and ceria)
influence the activity of Pd catalyzed liquid-phase reactions. The first chapter provides a …

Abstract 1 Understanding solid-fluid interactions within porous materials is critical for their
efficient utilisation across 2 chemical reaction and separation processes. However, detailed …
