11. Interface design of biodegradable polyester/nanocellulose biocomposites via reactive melt processing: tailoring of polyester matrix
Sammanfattning : Pushed by the societal awareness of plastic pollution, attempts are being made to find sustainable materials that can minimize the environmental impact of plastics. In this context, biocomposites based on biodegradable polymers and renewable lignocellulose are of interest. LÄS MER
12. Polymer Nanocomposites in Thin Film Applications
Sammanfattning : The introduction of a nanoscopic reinforcing phase to a polymer matrix offers great possibilities of obtaining improved properties, enabling applications outside the boundaries of traditional composites. The majority of the work in this thesis has been devoted to polymer/clay nanocomposites in coating applications, using the hydroxyl-functional hyperbranched polyester Boltorn® as matrix and montmorillonite clay as nanofiller.

13. Strategies to improve the aging, barrier and mechanical properties of chitosan, whey and wheat gluten protein films
Sammanfattning : Chitosan, Whey Protein Isolate (WPI) and vital wheat gluten (WG) are three biomaterials that have quite promising properties for packaging purposes. They have good film forming properties and good gas barrier properties in dry conditions. LÄS MER
14. Synthesis and Properties of Branched Semi-Crystalline Thermoset Resins
Sammanfattning : This thesis describes the synthesis and characterization ofbranched semi-crystalline polymers. Included in this work isthe SEC characterization of a series of dendrimers. Thebranched semi-crystalline polymers were synthesized in order toinvestigate the concept of their use as powder coatings resins. LÄS MER
15. Novel Possibilities for Advanced Molecular Structure Design for Polymers and Networks
Sammanfattning : Synthetic and degradable polymers are an attractive choicein many areas, since it is possible to control the way in whichthey are manufactured; more specifically, pathways tomanipulate the architecture, the mechanical properties and thedegradation times have been identified. In this work,L-lactide, 1,5-dioxepan-2-one and ε-caprolactone were usedas monomers to synthesize polymers with different architecturesby ring-opening polymerization. LÄS MER
