  1. 6. 3D Magnetic Photonic Crystals : Synthesis and Characterization

    Författare :Mei Fang; K.Venkat Rao; Lyubov Belova; Rajeev Ahuja; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; magnetic photonic crystals; photonic band gaps; Fe3O4 nanoparticles; silica; Optical physics; Optisk fysik; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis presents the synthesis methods and the characterizations of magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles, silica spheres with Fe3O4 nanoparticles embedded, and three dimensional magnetic photonic crystals (MPCs) prepared from the spheres. The structure, material composition, magnetic and optical properties, photonic band gaps (PBGs), as well as how these properties depend on the concentration of the magnetic nanoparticles, are investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID), Faraday rotation (FR) and optical spectrophotometers.

    Sammanfattning : Do metal particles (including particles of pure metals, alloys, metal oxides and compounds) pose a hazard or risk to human health? In the light of this question, this thesis summarizes results from research conducted on metal particles, and describes the elaboration and implementation of an in vitro test methodology to study metal release from particles through corrosion and dissolution processes in synthetic biological media relevant for human exposure through inhalation/ingestion and dermal contact. Bioaccessible metals are defined as the pool of released metals from particles that potentially could be made available for absorption by humans or other organisms. LÄS MER

  3. 8. Characterization of particulate matter from atmospheric fluidized bed biomass gasifiers

    Författare :Eva Gustafsson; Michael Strand; Marcus Öhman; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :biomass gasification; fluidized bed; particulate matter; particle morphology; particle elementary composition; Bioenergiteknik Energi- och Miljöteknik; Bioenergy Technology;

    Sammanfattning : Through biomass gasification, biomass can be converted at high temperature to a product gas rich in carbon monoxide, hydrogen, and methane. After cleaning and upgrading, the product gas can be converted to biofuels such as hydrogen; methanol; dimethyl ether; and synthetic diesel, gasoline, and natural gas. LÄS MER

  4. 9. Heterogeneous Film-Forming Latexes : Preparation - Morphology - Mechanical Properties

    Författare :Ola Karlsson; Fysikalisk kemi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; core-shell; particle morphology; heterogeneous latexes; particle size; crosslinking; hydrophilicity; poly isoprene-co-styrene-co-methacrylic acid ; monomer partitioning; internal particle viscosity; transmission electron microscopy TEM ; calorimetric reactor; two-stage; seeded emulsion polymerization; film morphology; mechanical properties; paper coating.; Polymer technology; biopolymers; Polymerteknik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis describes the preparation of heterogeneous latexes, which may serve as binders in coating applications, and the characterization of these. The latexes were prepared in two-stage seeded emulsion polymerization. LÄS MER

  5. 10. New single particle methods for detection and characterization of nanoparticles in environmental samples

    Författare :Jani Tuoriniemi; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Nanoparticles; Detection; Quantification; Metrology; Trace particle;

    Sammanfattning : Nanoparticles (NP) are being used in rapidly increasing quantities which has resulted in concerns about possible harmful effects for health and environment. NP are already undergoing similar risk assessment programs as conventional chemicals, and due to their enhanced surface reactivities it has been proposed that the use of NP should be regulated by specific legislation based on particle size.
