  1. 6. Utilizing lignocellulose-based building blocks to develop recyclable polyesters

    Författare :Nitin Valsange; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Biobased; Polyester; Recycling;

    Sammanfattning : With the growing global population and the demand for new applications, the production of fossil-based plastics is continuously increasing. This has led to serious environmental concerns about the depletion of fossil resources, land and marine pollution, and generation of greenhouse gas emissions. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Exploring different thermoplastics from lignocellulosic building blocks and monomers

    Författare :Olivier Bonjour; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biobased plastics; Biobased polymers; Polymethacrylates; Polycarbonates; Polyesters; Poly beta-thioether ester s; Chemical recycling; Biobased plastics; Biobased polymers; Polycarbonates; Polymethacrylates; Poly beta-thioether ester s; Polyesters; Chemical recycling;

    Sammanfattning : The need to replace conventional fossil-based plastics is becoming more imperative. As climate change is more visibly affecting our society, employing non-sustainable resources to produce plastics is aggravating the problem. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Functional Nanocellulose–Tannin Materials Inspired by Nature and Traditional Processes

    Författare :Konstantin Kriechbaum; Lennart Bergström; Alain Dufresne; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cellulose; Nanofibrils; Tannin; Biobased; Films; Foams; Moisture resistance; Energy efficiency; Materials Chemistry; materialkemi;

    Sammanfattning : Renewable and biodegradable alternatives to fossil-based materials are essential as concerns over depleting finite resources and the pollution of our ecosystems are growing. Abundant, highly anisotropic, and mechanically strong cellulose nanofibrils (CNF) are attractive building blocks for the fabrication of high-performance biobased materials that can compete with their conventional fossil-based counterparts.

    Sammanfattning : Materials based on wood can offer sustainable alternatives to fossil-based plastics and composites, and show interesting mechanical properties. However, the issue of their flammability is generally unresolved. In this thesis, eco-friendly, fire retardant clay-cellulose nanofibril materials are investigated. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Towards sustainable plastics : Microbial production of aromatic and aliphatic building blocks from biobased feedstock and plastic hydrolysate

    Författare :Oliver Englund Örn; Bioteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cell factories; Biobased plastics; Protocatechuic acid; Adipic acid; 4-Hydroxybyratate; 1; 4-Butanediol; PBAT; Enzymatic recycling; Synthetic promoter library;

    Sammanfattning : The current plastic system is unsustainable and needs to change. Plastics are mainly produced from fossil feedstock, contributing to greenhouse gas emissions, and low rate of post-consumer recycling results in pollution on land and in oceans with high ecological impact, and huge loss of valuable material.
