  1. 6. Fiber-Supported Hydrogels with Controlled surface Properties

    Författare :Jan Karlsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cellulose; fiber; ozone; polypropylene; graft polymerization; hydrogel; surface;

    Sammanfattning : Hydrogels are emerging materials that have the ability to hold a substantial amount of water. However, the low mechanical performance of hydrogels is often a limitation for extending the field of applications. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Betulin-modified cellulosic textile fibers with improved water repellency, hydrophobicity and antibacterial properties

    Författare :Tianxiao Huang; Monica Ek; Mats Johansson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Antibacterial; Betulin; Biorefinery; Cellulose; Grafting; Coating; Hydrophobicity; Textile; Water repellency; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Sammanfattning : Textiles made from natural sources, such as cotton and flax, have advantages over those made of synthetic fibers in terms of sustainability. Unlike major synthetic fibers that have a negative impact on the environment due to poor biodegradability, cotton cellulose is a renewable material. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Porous Materials from Cellulose Nanofibrils

    Författare :Nicholas Tchang Cervin; Lars Wågberg; Björn Lindman; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Poröst material; cellulosa nanofibriller; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Sammanfattning : In the first part of this work a novel type of low-density, sponge-like material for the separation of mixtures of oil and water has been prepared by vapour deposition of hydrophobic tri-chloro-silanes on ultra-porous cellulose nanofibril (CNF) aerogels. To achieve this, a highly porous (>99%) robust CNF aerogel with high structural flexibility is first formed by freeze-drying an aqueous suspension of the CNFs. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Preparation, characterisation and wetting of fluorinated cellulose surfaces

    Författare :Christian Aulin; Lars Wågberg; Sigbritt Karlsson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cellulose and paper engineering; Cellulosa- och pappersteknik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with the wetting by oil mixtures of two different model cellulose surfaces. The surfaces studied were a regenerated cellulose (RG) surface prepared by spin-coating, and a film consisting of polyelectrolyte multilayers (PEM) of Poly(ethyleneimine) (PEI) and a carboxymethylated Microfibrillated Cellulose (MFC).

  7. 10. Tailoring adhesion and wetting properties of cellulose fibers and model surfaces

    Författare :Emil Gustafsson; Lars Wågberg; Monika Österberg; Mikael Hedenqvist; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Sammanfattning : The layer-by-layer (LbL) technique was used to modify the surface of cellulose fibers by consecutive adsorption of poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH) and poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) followed by a final adsorbed layer of anionic paraffin wax colloids. Paper hand sheets made from the modified fibers were found to be highly hydrophobic with a contact angle of 150°. LÄS MER
