  1. 1. Novel oil resistant cellulosic materials

    Författare :Christian Aulin; Lars Wågberg; Derek Gray; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; oleophobic; MFC; cellulose; oil resistant; contact angle; XPS; SEM; Cellulose and paper engineering; Cellulosa- och pappersteknik;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this study has been to prepare and characterise oil resistant cellulosic materials, ranging from model surfaces to papers and aerogels. The cellulosic materials were made oil resistant by chemical and topographic modifications, based on surface energy, surface roughness and barrier approaches. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Hydrophobization of cellulose for bio-based materials

    Författare :Tianxiao Huang; Monica Ek; Merima Hasani; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Betulin; Cellulose; Hydrophobicity; Mechanical properties; Polymer-matrix composites; Sustainability; Textile; Betulin; Cellulosa; Hydrofobicitet; Hållbarhet; Mekaniska egenskaper; Polymer-matriskompositer; Textil; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Sammanfattning : Cellulosa, vilken är huvudkomponenten i växter förekommer rikligt i naturen, både på land och i havet. Cellulosabaserade material har i tusentals år använts av människan för dagliga förnödenheter som bränsle och konstruktionsmaterial. Cellulosa isolerades först av den franske forskaren Anselme Payen 1838. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Model studies of cellulose fibers and films and their relation to paper strength

    Författare :Susanna Fält; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :absorption; carboxymethyl cellulose; cellulose fibers; dissolving pulps;

    Sammanfattning : The objectives of this work were (i) to develop a new methodfor the preparation of thin cellulose model films, (ii) to usethese model films for swelling measurements and (iii) to relatethe swelling of fibers and films to the dry strength ofpaper.In the new film preparation method, NMMO(N-methylmorpholine-N-oxide) was used to dissolve cellulose andDMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide) was added to control the viscosity ofthe cellulose solution.

  4. 4. Hemicellulose as barrier material

    Författare :Hartman Jonas; Ann-Christine Albertsson; Gunnar Henriksson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Hemicellulose; galactoglucomannan; plasma surface treatment; vaporphase grafting; benzylation; contact angle; oxygen permeability; solution casting; Cellulose and paper engineering; Cellulosa- och pappersteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Polysaccharides constitute an important source of raw materials for the packaging industry today. Polysaccharides have good natural barrier properties which are necessary for packaging films. Cellulose is the forerunner among renewable polymers for such applications. Hemicelluloses represent a new interesting breed of barrier materials. LÄS MER

  5. 5. On the Adhesion Between Substrates Covered with Polyelectrolyte Multilayers

    Författare :Rikard Lingström; Lars Wågberg; Lennart Piculell; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; fibre; polyelectorlyte; multilayer; wettability; contact angle; paper strength; atomic force microscopy; surface force apparatus; Cellulose and paper engineering; Cellulosa- och pappersteknik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis examines the formation of Polyelectrolyte Multilayers (PEM) on cellulose fibres as a new way of influencing the fibre surface and the adhesion between wood fibres. The aim of the study was to enhance the fundamental understanding of the adsorption mechanisms behind the formation of Polyelectrolyte Multilayers on cellulose fibres; to study how the properties of the layers can be influenced and to show how the properties of the layers influence the adhesion between the fibres and the strength of paper sheets made from the PEM treated fibres.
