1. Ceramic Materials for Administration of Potent Drugs
Sammanfattning : This thesis aimed to investigate and document the potential of applying ceramics in two specific drug delivery applications: tamper-resistant opioid formulations and transdermal enhancement protrusions.Geopolymers were developed into the matrix for a tamper-resistant formulation, aiming to protect drug substances from non-medical abuse.

2. Exploratory Study of Novel Materials Used for Intermediate Temperature Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (IT-SOFC) Electrolytes
Sammanfattning : Currently, yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) is still the dominant electrolyte material in commercial SOFC applications. But it has severe drawbacks due to its high operating temperatures. In present work, two electrolyte materials: Hf0.69Y0. LÄS MER
3. Improved inspection and micrometrology of embedded structures in multi-layered ceramics : Development of optical coherence tomographic methods and tools
Sammanfattning : Roll-to-roll manufacturing of micro components based on advanced printing, structuring and lamination of ceramic tapes is rapidly progressing. This large-scale and cost-effective manufacturing process of ceramic micro devices is however prone to hide defects within the visually opaque tape stacks. LÄS MER
4. Cattle for beads : The archaeology of historical contact and trade on the Namib Coast
Sammanfattning : Early contacts between indigenous pastoralists at Walvis Bay on the Namib Coast and Western seafarers are poorly documented and little understood. Trade augmented regional exchange networks with a range, of archaeologically visible and easily identifiable objects. LÄS MER
5. Engineering Ceramics for Tribological Systems. Manufacture, Properties and Testing
Sammanfattning : A broad range of commercial and experimental grades of ceramics and ceramic composites was tested in various model tests and simplified component tests. The tests were done to establish important microstructural features, friction and wear mechanisms. LÄS MER
