1. Development of Novel In Situ ESEM Techniques for the Study of Water Interaction with Soft Materials
Sammanfattning : The transport of water is central to many applications of soft biomaterials; for example water management in personal care products, controlled drug release in pharmaceuticals and, on a fundamental level, the activities of living cells. Water transport through a material may occur in both liquid and gas phase, and is highly dependent on the microstructure. LÄS MER
2. Development of Novel In Situ Microscopy Techniques for the Study of Water Interaction with Soft Materials
Sammanfattning : The transport of water in soft materials can occur in liquid or gas phase and is highly dependent on the material microstructure and the structure dynamics. Understanding these relationships is the basis for the development of predictive models that can aid the design of new and improved functional materials. LÄS MER
3. Microscopy of high temperature oxidation of iron and some stainless steels
Sammanfattning : This thesis concerns the high temperature oxidation of iron and some stainless steels. The oxide scales, as well as the subjacent metal, were investigated using a range of electron and ion microscopy techniques, including SEM, TEM, EDX and FIB. The aim was to link the microstructural observations to the oxidation mechanisms of the materials. LÄS MER
4. Nanoscale Characterisation of Barriers to Electron Conduction in ZnO Varistor Materials
Sammanfattning : The work presented in this thesis is concerned with the microstructure of zinc oxide varistor materials used in surge protecting devices. This class of material has been characterised with special emphasis on the functional microstructure and the development of the microstructure during sintering. LÄS MER
5. High temperature corrosion of some selected stainless steels and Ni-base alloys – an advanced microscopy study
Sammanfattning : The thesis deals with high temperature corrosion behavior of some selective stainless steels and Ni-base alloys with applications in power generation technologies, e.g. boilers fired by biomass and waste. LÄS MER
