1. Electrospinning Nanofibres from Cellulose Dissolved in Ionic Liquid
Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates the electrospinning of cellulose nanofibres from ionic liquids. Cellulose nanofibres produced by an environmentally friendly process have the potential to replace synthetic nanofibres produced with volatile and harmful solvents. LÄS MER
2. Carbon-nanofibre-based tunable photonic crystals
Sammanfattning : Photonic crystals are materials with periodically varying refractive indices. In conventional photonic crystal design it is hard to achieve tunable structures in the visible range. That is, structures with changeable optical properties. LÄS MER
3. Nanocellulose: Energy Applications and Self-Assembly
Sammanfattning : Technologies based on renewable materials are required to decrease the environmental cost and promote the development of a sustainable society. In this regard, nanocellulose extracted from wood finds many applications thanks to its intrinsic mechanical and chemical properties as well as the versatility in its manufacturing processes. LÄS MER
4. Atomistic Modelling of Materials for Clean Energy Applications : hydrogen generation, hydrogen storage, and Li-ion battery
Sammanfattning : In this thesis, a number of clean-energy materials for hydrogen generation, hydrogen storage, and Li-ion battery energy storage applications have been investigated through state-of-the-art density functional theory.As an alternative fuel, hydrogen has been regarded as one of the promising clean energies with the advantage of abundance (generated through water splitting) and pollution-free emission if used in fuel cell systems.

5. Mechanical Pulp-Based Nanocellulose : Processing and applications relating to paper and paperboard, composite films, and foams
Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with processing of nanocellulose originating from pulps, with focus on mechanical pulp fibres and fines fractions. The nanocellulose materials produced within this research project were tested for different purposes ranging from strength additives in paper and paperboard products, via composite films to foam materials.
