1. Nanofiber networks, aerogels and biocomposites based on nanofibrillated cellulose from wood
Sammanfattning : Nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) from wood is an interesting material constituent of high strength and high aspect ratio, which easily forms networks through interfibril secondary bonding including hydrogen bonds. This has been exploited in preparation of new materials, which extend the range of properties for existing cellulosic materials. LÄS MER
2. Chemical Modification of Electrospun Cellulose Nanofibers
Sammanfattning : The forest industry is a large part of the Swedish economy and the export of pulp, paper and wood products constitutes 11% of the total Swedish export of goods. The main product of a pulp mill is purified cellulose, which has many great properties like biodegradability and non-toxicity. LÄS MER
3. Design of Cellulose-Based Materials via Sustainable and Scalable Processes
Sammanfattning : Plastic pollution is one of the most pressing environmental issues in today’s world. Addressing this problem calls for the development of environmentally friendly alternatives that would reduce the amount of persistent plastic waste. LÄS MER
4. Perfluorocarbon microdroplets stabilized by cellulose nanofibers : Toward ultrasound-mediated diagnostics and therapy
Sammanfattning : Ultrasound contrast agents consist of gas-filled micrometer-sized bubbles that are injectedinto the blood stream. Ultrasound contrast agents are an invaluable tool for ultrasound imaging of the cardiac muscle and highly vascularized structures such as kidneys and the liver. LÄS MER
5. Bio-inspired polysaccharide nanocomposites and foams
Sammanfattning : Today, the majority of materials used for single-use packaging are petroleum-based synthetic polymers. With increased concern about the environmental protection, efforts have been made to develop alternative biodegradable materials from renewable resources. Starch offers an attractive alternative since it is of low cost and abundant. LÄS MER
