1. Proton-Conducting Sulfonated Aromatic Ionomers and Membranes by Chemical Modifications and Polycondensations
Sammanfattning : Proton-exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC)s are increasingly regarded as promising environmentally benign power sources. Intensive development is today directed towards reducing the cost and increasing the durability of the fuel cell, as well as expanding the operational window for the PEMFC for a range of applications.

2. Functional Cyclic Carbonate Monomers and Polycarbonates : Synthesis and Biomaterials Applications
Sammanfattning : The present work describes a selection of strategies for the synthesis of functional aliphatic polycarbonates. Using an end-group functionalization strategy, a series of DNA-binding cationic poly(trimethylene carbonate)s was synthesized for application as vectors for non-viral gene delivery. LÄS MER
3. Durable Polysulfones with Densely Sulfonated Segments for Highly Proton Conducting Membranes
Sammanfattning : Fuel cells are considered as a promising alternative environmentally benign power source to the existing ones depending on petroleum oil. Especially, proton-exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) have been intensively developed during the last decade because of their wide application windows including various portable, stationary and transportation applications.

4. Membrane Electrode Assemblies Based on Hydrocarbon Ionomers and New Catalyst Supports for PEM Fuel Cells
Sammanfattning : The proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) is a potential electrochemicalpower device for vehicles, auxiliary power units and small-scale power plants. In themembrane electrode assembly (MEA), which is the core of the PEMFC single cell,oxygen in air and hydrogen electrochemically react on separate sides of a membraneand electrical energy is generated.

5. Tailoring of Biomaterials using Ionic Interactions : Synthesis, Characterization and Application
Sammanfattning : The interactions between polymers and components of biological systems are an important area of interest within the fields of tissue engineering, polymer chemistry, medicine and biomaterials. In order to create such a biomimetic material, it must show the inherent ability to reproduce or elicit a biological function. LÄS MER
