21. Exploring binary mixtures of protic ionic liquids– Interactions, dynamics, and non-ideal behavior
Sammanfattning : Ionic liquids are organic salts that melt at low temperatures and provide a set of properties beneficial for diverse applications. These properties include good thermal stability, high ionic conductivity, low volatility and non-flammability. LÄS MER
22. Structural and functional studies on glutaredoxins and members of the thioredoxin superfamily
Sammanfattning : The active site of E.coli glutaredoxin 3 was investigated using a combination of experimental and theoretical techniques. Starting from different conformations, molecular dynamics simulations converged to an active site conformation where the Cys11 thiolate was hydrogen bonded to surrounding amide protons and to the thiol proton of Cys14.

23. Mixed Block Copolymer Solutions: Self-Assembly and Interactions
Sammanfattning : This thesis incorporates studies on the aqueous systems of two types of thermoresponsive amphiphilic block copolymers; a series of nonionic triblock copolymers comprising blocks of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and poly(propylene oxide) (PPO) denoted as PEO-PPO-PEO block copolymers, and a series of ionic diblock copolymers consisting of one charged block and one block of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAM). Various techniques, such as dynamic and static light scattering (DLS and SLS), small angle X-ray and neutron scattering (SAXS and SANS), high sensitivity differential scanning calorimetry (HSDSC), turbidimetry, electrophoretic mobility measurements, and two-dimensional proton NMR nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy (2D 1H NMR NOESY), were applied to study these block copolymer systems.

24. Novel electrode and photoelectrode materials for hydrogen production based on molecular catalysts
Sammanfattning : The PhD project focussed on the application of a cobalt tetraazamacrocyclic complex, in the literature commonly referred to as [Co(CR)Cl2]+ as a molecular catalyst for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). This was within the broader scope of the EU MSCA H2020 ITN ‘eSCALED’ project, which primarily aimed to create artificial leaf devices for the storage of solar energy in chemical fuels and, as part of this, sought the development of novel bio-inspired and scalable materials.

25. Iron-nitrogen containing carbon catalysts for oxygen reduction in fuel cells
Sammanfattning : New solutions to efficiently convert energy are needed to mitigate global climate changes and sustain the needs of the growing population. An energy device with high potential is the proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell. PEM fuel cells can convert chemical energy to electrical energy with extraordinary high conversion efficiency.
