Research summary

Professor Terence Cosgrove's work focuses on the application of polymers surfactants and colloids in a wide variety of systems of practical interest.

The main techniques used to probe these systems include NMR, scattering and simulation methods to probe details on the molecular level and rheology and general surface techniques to explore bulk proprieties.

Current projects include:

  • The study of the viscoelastic properties of worm like micelles in interaction with nanoparticles- relevant to oil exploration and personal care products.
  • The structure and forces in concentrated nanoparticles dispersions to understand the fundamentals of colloid stability.
  • Restricted diffusion and release in emulsions ...
