  1. 1. Steric Stabilization of Polylactide particles achieved by Covalent 'grafting-from' with Hydrophilic Polymers

    Författare :Robertus Wahyu Nayan Nugroho; Ann-Christine Albertsson; Karin Odelius; Anders Höglund; Mark Rutland; Martina Janstål; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :Steric stabilization; AFM; hydrophilicity; surface modification; poly lactide ; acrylamide; acrylic acid; maleic anhydride;

    Sammanfattning : Despite numerous advantages of using particles in a wide range of applications, they have one drawback that is their tendency to agglomerate. One way to overcome this problem is to sterically  stabilize the particles by introducing polymeric  chains covalently attached to the surface. LÄS MER

  3. 2. A Waterborne Colloidal Model System Consisting of Fluorinated Spheres Bearing Grafted PEG: Synthesis, Characterization and Properties

    Författare :Jeanette Ulama; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; colloidal model system; steric stabilization; core-shell; poly ethylene glycol PEG ; heptafluorobutyl methactylate HFBMA ; fluorinated; polymer; phase behavior; short-range attractions; semi-batch emulsion polymerization; small angle X-ray scattering SAXS ; smearing effects; dynamic light scattering DLS ; cryogenic-transmission electron microscopy cryo-TEM ;

    Sammanfattning : Model systems have expanded our knowledge of numerous phenomena in Colloid Science, such as the appearance of glasses, order-disorder transitions involving crystals and attraction induced formation of gels. So far, the existing colloidal model systems have been limited mainly to nonaqueous media. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Over the past decades, concerns for the environment have increased and efforts to achieve a sustainable society have intensified. One particular challenge is to replace fossil-based plastics with biodegradable materials produced from renewable resources. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Surface Stabilization and Electrochemical Properties from a Theoretical Perspective

    Författare :Daniel Petrini; Karin Larsson; Jan-Otto Carlsson; Martin Stutzmann; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Inorganic chemistry; DFT; Diamond; High surface conductivity; Surface reactivity; c-BN; Oorganisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : Diamond and cubic boron nitride surfaces have extreme properties that can be exploited in novel tribological, electrochemical and electronic applications. Normally insulating diamond surfaces can exhibit high surface conductivities due to hydrogen termination and the nature of the surrounding atmosphere. LÄS MER
