11. Enzymatic Synthesis of Mixed Acid Phospholipids
Sammanfattning : Mixed acid phospholipids are valuable compounds, which are used mainly in membrane- and lipoprotein research and in liposome technology. The chemical synthesis of these special lipids is rather difficult and involves both toxic chemicals and harsh reaction conditions, which makes the products less attractive for medical and biological applications.

12. Shapeable cellulosic materials
Sammanfattning : ABSTRACTA palette of materials has been developed by the oil and gas sector. The expected depletion of fossil resources and the stress on the climate from burning them has, however, turned the world’s attention to renewable resources. LÄS MER
13. Studies of ester formation on a cellulose matrix
Sammanfattning : In this work a model system has been developed to quantitatively study esterification of cellulosic material during drying and heating in which solid-state conditions can be said to predominate. The formation of ester cross-links in cellulosic or lignocellulosic composite materials during drying and heating is of interest for production of paper and wood composite boards, for wood modification and in giving cotton materials improved characteristics.

14. Levulinic Acid : Versatile Building Block for Plasticizer Design
Sammanfattning : The utilization of renewable resources is a challenging and an importantaspect towards development of sustainable plastic products. Therefore,commercial biomass conversion to produce biobased chemicals isnecessary to replace current fossil-based chemicals. LÄS MER
15. Chemistry of Carbon Nanostructures : Functionalization of Carbon Nanotubes and Synthesis of Organometallic Fullerene Derivatives
Sammanfattning : This thesis is based on two main parts. The first part concerns purification and functionalization of carbon nanotubes (papers I-III), and the second part is related to the synthesis of organometallic fullerene derivatives (papers IV-VII): Two oxidative methods involving aqueous nitric acid were compared with respect to their capability to introduce carboxylic groups into single walled carbon nanotubes, and several literature methods for esterification and amidation of these groups have been evaluated with focus on efficiency and reproducibility in forming covalently functionalized products soluble in organic media.
