  1. 1. Electrochromism in Metal Oxide Thin Films : Towards long-term durability and materials rejuvenation

    Författare :Rui-Tao Wen; Claes-Göran Granqvist; Agustín R. González-Elipe; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; electrochromic; smart windows; long-term durability; degradation kinetics; ion trapping; de-trapping; materials rejuvenation; Engineering Science with specialization in Solid State Physics; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot fasta tillståndets fysik;

    Sammanfattning : Electrochromic thin films can effectively regulate the visible and infrared light passing through a window, demonstrating great potential to save energy and offer a comfortable indoor environment in buildings. However, long-term durability is a big issue and the physics behind this is far from clear. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Long-term properties of polyethylene films : efficiency of a natural antioxidant

    Författare :Clara Strandberg; Ann-Christine Albertsson; Jukka Seppälä; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Polymer Technology; alfa-tocopherol; Polyethylene PE ; Thermal aging; Infrared Spectroscopy FT-IR ; Chemiluminescence CL ; Solid-phase microextraction SPME ; Chemistry; Kemi;

    Sammanfattning : There is a growing awareness of the risks of pollution in biological systems and one potential problem is the synthetic antioxidants, used for e.g. the stabilisation of polymeric materials. Natural antioxidants are an interesting alternative, if the high efficiency and thermal stability of the synthetic compounds can be reached. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Health effects of heatwaves : short and long term predictions

    Författare :Christofer Åström; Bertil Forsberg; Kristie L. Ebi; Scott Sheridan; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Heatwave; health impact assessment; early warning system; mortality; morbidity; climate change;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Climate change is defined by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change as changes in the state of the climate associated with changes in the mean and/or the variability of its properties. Climate change will affect temperatures both as an increase in mean temperature as well as changes in the frequency of temperature extremes. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Quasi-instantaneous and Long-term Deformations of High-Performance Concrete with Some Related Properties

    Författare :Bertil Persson; Avdelningen för Byggnadsmaterial; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Shrinkage; Relative humidity; Long-term; Hydration; High-Performance Concrete; Elastic modulus; Deformations; Creep; Concrete; Cement; Quasi-instantaneous; Strength; Building construction; Byggnadsteknik;

    Sammanfattning : This report outlines an experimental and numerical study on quasi-instantaneous and long-term deformations of High-Performance Concrete, HPC, with some related properties. For this purpose about two hundred small cylinders and about one thousand cubes of eight types of HPC were cast. The age at loading varied between 18h and 28 days. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Long-term Properties of Sustainable Polymeric Materials : Mechanical Recycling and Use of Renewable Resources

    Författare :Emma Strömberg; Sigbritt Karlsson; Amparo Ribes-Greus; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Sustainable materials; mechanical recycling; polyolefin; reprocessing; accelerated ageing; chromatography; biofilm; microenvironment chamber; environmental degradation; biocomposite; nanocomposite; Polymer chemistry; Polymerkemi;

    Sammanfattning : New strategies for management of the accumulating amounts of plastic waste are required, to achieve a sustainable development in terms of material production and use. After service life, the materials should be recovered and recycled efficiently to provide a valuable resource for future applications. LÄS MER
