6. Porous Polymeric Monoliths by Less Common Pathways : Preparation and Characterization
Sammanfattning : This thesis focuses on my endeavors to prepare new porous polymeric monoliths that are viable to use as supports in flow-through processes. Polymer monoliths of various porous properties and different chemical properties have been prepared utilizing the thermally induced phase separation (TIPS) phenomenon and step-growth polymerization reactions.

7. 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.

8. Cellulose solutions in aqueous hydroxide bases
Sammanfattning : Cellulose is a renewable and widely available carbohydrate polymer whose utility for mankind only increases as we move towards a circular bioeconomy. Unlike most plastics or metals, it cannot be melted, and therefore, solution processing is important. LÄS MER
9. Cellulose in quaternary ammonium hydroxide solutions
Sammanfattning : An ever-increasing demand to shift away from fossil-based feedstock towards renewable resources has led to more use of bio-based materials. Cellulose being the most abundant biopolymer on Earth has received a considerable attention with a wide range of applications (in textile fibers, films, membranes, etc. LÄS MER
10. Antibacterial materials for wound care applications utilizing antimicrobial peptides
Sammanfattning : The spread of antibiotic resistance among bacteria has shown that the development of alternative treatments of infections is of vital importance. This thesis has looked at one potential candidate, antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), as an alternative or compliment to traditional antibiotics. LÄS MER
