1. Plasticization of Biobased Polymers: A Combined Experimental and Simulation Approach
Sammanfattning : The field of bio-based plastics has developed significantly in recent decades and there is an increasing demand for industries to shift from petrochemical to biobased polymers. Biobased polymers offer competitive properties, and in many cases have advantages in terms of cost. LÄS MER
2. Polymer and Protein Physics : Simulations of Interactions and Dynamics
Sammanfattning : Proteins can, without any exaggeration, be called the "building blocks of life". Their physical properties depend not only on the chemical structure but also on their geometric shape. In this thesis, I investigate protein geometry using several different methods.We start with a coarse-graining model to study the general behavior of polymers. LÄS MER
3. Relating the Bulk and Interface Structure of Hyaluronan to Physical Properties of Future Biomaterials
Sammanfattning : This dissertation describes a structural investigation of hyaluronan (HA) with neutron scattering techniques. HA is a natural biopolymer and one of the major components of the extracellular matrix, synovial fluid, and vitreous humor. LÄS MER
4. Chitin nanofibers, networks and composites : Preparation, structure and mechanical properties
Sammanfattning : Chitin is an important reinforcing component in load-bearing structures in many organisms such as insects and crustaceans (i.e. shrimps, lobsters, crabs etc.). LÄS MER
5. Spray-Dried Powders for Inhalation : Particle Formation and Formulation Concepts
Sammanfattning : Spray drying is a method with a high potential in the preparation of protein particles suitable for pulmonary delivery. However, surface induced denaturation of bio-molecules during atomization and subsequent drying can be substantial and it is therefore important to develop new formulation concept for concurrent encapsulation and stabilization of proteins during spray drying.
