  1. 1. Self-Healing Concrete

    Författare :Magdalena Rajczakowska; Andrzej Cwirzen; Karin Habermehl-Cwirzen; Hans Hedlund; Erik Schlangen; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cementitious materials; self-healing; exposure; fly ash; calcite; C-S-H; cracking; Byggmaterial; Building Materials;

    Sammanfattning : Concrete is a brittle material prone to cracking due to its low tensile strength. Crack repairs are not only expensive and time-consuming but also increase the carbon footprint. Designing a novel concrete material possessing the ability to self-repair cracks would enhance its sustainability. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Thermodynamics and Structure of Plate-Like Particle Dispersions

    Författare :Maxime Delhorme; Beräkningskemi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Charge anisotropy; Gel phase; Model clay system; Liquid-crystal phases; Plate-like particles; Simulations; Statistical mechanics;

    Sammanfattning : A considerable amount of mineral particles are found to have a plate-like shape. The work in this thesis concerns theoretical investigations, using Monte Carlo method, of the properties of such particles in aqueous solutions. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Water and alkali salts in the hydrating and hardened green cement-based materials: Hydration process, moisture content and transport

    Författare :Liming Huang; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Formation factor; Electrical conductivity; Moisture transport; Pore structure; Sustainable cement-based materials; Hydration; Alkali salts; Supplementary cementitious materials;

    Sammanfattning : Reducing CO2 emissions in the production of cementitious binder is the most effective way to decrease the environmental impact of the construction industry, so a large amount of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) has been used in the green concrete. Both the SCMs and alkali salts in binders influence the hydration process and the structure in hardened cement-based materials. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Microbially induced concrete degradation in subsea tunnels - Community structure of biofilms from sprayed reinforced concrete in the Oslofjord tunnel

    Författare :Sabina Karacic; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; microbial community structure; concrete deterioration; biocorrosion; 16S rRNA gene sequences; biofilm; subsea tunnel;

    Sammanfattning : Microbially induced concrete deterioration has been discovered in several Norwegian subsea tunnels with significant disintegration of the calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H) and steel fibre corrosion in areas with leakages of saline groundwater. Complex microbial biofilm activity together with abiotic attack from saline ground water, with high concentrations of Cl−, SO42−, Mg2+ and HCO3−, are responsible for the degradation in the specific subsea tunnel environment.

  5. 5. Functionalization and Characterization of Carbon Based Nanomaterials for Electronics, Composite and Biomedical Applications

    Författare :Nan Wang; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; carbon nanomaterials; flexible electronics; hybrid nanowires; functionalization; graphene;

    Sammanfattning : Surface functionalization of nanomaterials to combine different material’s properties together opens up unlimited possibilities for both academic research and industrial applications. In this thesis, flexible and scalable chemical approaches to functionalize carbon nanomaterials (CNMs) are developed for different applications, including electronics, composite and biomedical applications.
