1. Movement patterns and displacement of a soil insect
Sammanfattning : Movement and dispersal are important determinants of the spatial distribution and persistence of animal populations in a heterogeneous environment. I studied the small-scale movement pattern of a soil-living insect, Protaphorura armata (Collembola) by using a video-equipment. LÄS MER
2. Surface-modified wood based on silicone nanofilaments for improved liquid repellence
Sammanfattning : The increasing awareness of sustainability motivates the development of building materials from renewable resources. The requirements of wood-based products with improved durability, for example, an enhanced liquid repellence, is still a challenge. LÄS MER
3. Surface modification of birch and acetylated birch wood by silicone nanofilaments
Sammanfattning : The increasing awareness of sustainability motivates the development of building materials from renewable resources. The requirements of wood-based products with improved durability, for example, enhanced liquid repellence and UV and biological resistance, are still a challenge. LÄS MER
4. Super liquid-repellent surfaces - interactions and gas capillaries
Sammanfattning : Super liquid-repellent surfaces have attracted a lot of interest in recent years. In addition to the large scientific interest there are many potential technological applications ranging from self-cleaning materials to microfluidic devices. LÄS MER
5. The mechanisms of edge wicking in retortable paperboard
Sammanfattning : This thesis reports on an investigation of the mechanisms of edge wicking in retortable paperboard. Retortable board is used for packaging preserved food, a process which requires that the package and its contents be sterilised by exposure to high temperature steam for up to three hours. LÄS MER
