1. Colloidal Processing and Alignment of Wood-Based Dispersions and Hybrid Functional Foams
Sammanfattning : This thesis presents novel methods and approaches for designing, preparing/fabricating, and characterizing wood-based nanomaterials. It investigates how modifications in structure, process variables, and composition can enhance functional properties. LÄS MER
2. Biosynthesis, interactions, and structure of native lignin
Sammanfattning : Wood biomass is an important resource in the development ofstrategies towards replacement of fossil-based materials. Woodcomprises cellulose, hemicelluloses and lignin, in amounts thatvary between species. LÄS MER
3. Cellulose–Assisted Dispersion of Carbon Nanotubes : From Colloids to Composites
Sammanfattning : It is a challenge to disperse nanoparticles to obtain a nanostructured composite. This thesis aims at providing a new route to fabricate carbon nanotube (CNT) composites and suggests mechanisms for nanocellulose–CNT interactions. This route is based on unmodified CNT dispersed in water with the help of nanocellulose. LÄS MER
4. Integrated Cellulosic Wood Aerogel Structures
Sammanfattning : Highly porous aerogels based on renewable materials that possess structural functionality are appealing for sustainable energy regulation and harvesting. Achieving structural anisotropy provides advantageous directional diffusion and mechanical strength, however, introduces great engineering challenges, such as complex, costly, and time-consuming processing.

5. Development of Functionalized Protein Materials
Sammanfattning : Many proteins are available as side-streams from food production, and in some cases even from industrial waste-streams. This means that proteins are available in large scale and at a relatively low price. As protein are highly complex molecules it is interesting to try to use protein as starting materials in for applications in materials science. LÄS MER
