  1. 1. Functional Cyclic Carbonate Monomers and Polycarbonates : Synthesis and Biomaterials Applications

    Författare :Jonas Mindemark; Tim Bowden; Andrew Dove; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; DNA condensation; gene delivery; ionomers; polyplexes; self-assembly; amphiphiles; biodegradable; biological applications of polymers; transfection; cyclic carbonate monomers; polycarbonates; semicrystalline polymers; click chemistry; triazoles; cycloaddition; Kemi med inriktning mot polymerkemi; Chemistry with specialization in Polymer Chemistry;

    Sammanfattning : The present work describes a selection of strategies for the synthesis of functional aliphatic polycarbonates. Using an end-group functionalization strategy, a series of DNA-binding cationic poly(trimethylene carbonate)s was synthesized for application as vectors for non-viral gene delivery. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Modification of stable and degradable polymers by heterogeneous grafting

    Författare :Mattias Ohrlander; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis summarizes the investigations of the electronbeam initiated grafting of a hydrophilic monomer, acrylamide(AAm), onto three polymers; linear low density poly(ethylene)(LLDPE), poly(&-caprolactone) (PCL) and chemicallycrosslinked poly( 1,5-dioxepan-2-one) (PDXO-X). LLDPE and PCLare semicrystalline and PDXO-X is fully amorphous. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Characterization of injection molded polymers – from conventional to wood-based thermoplastics

    Författare :Linnea Björn; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAXS; WAXS; melt processing; injection molding; Hierarchical Materials; Polyethylene; Dialcohol cellulose;

    Sammanfattning : The success of polymers products is associated with the melt processability, which allows to create products with complex shapes at a low cost. One of the most widely used processing techniques utilizing melt processability is injection molding, where a polymer is heated until it flows into a mold under pressure. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Simulations of Semi-Crystalline Polymers and Polymer Composites in order to predict Electrical, Thermal, Mechanical and Diffusion Properties

    Författare :Fritjof Nilsson; Mikael Hedenqvist; Gerhard Goldbeck; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Several novel computer simulation models were developed for predicting electrical, mechanical, thermal and diffusion properties of materials with complex microstructures, such as composites, semi-crystalline polymers and foams. A Monte Carlo model for simulating solvent diffusion through spherulitic semicrystalline polyethylene was developed. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Characterisation of Aqueous Solutions, Liquid Crystals and Solid State of Non-ionic Polymers in Association with Amphiphiles and Drugs

    Författare :Annika Ridell; Martin Malmsten; Sven Engström; David Attwood; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physical chemistry; polymer; surfactant; phase diagram; x-ray diffraction; fluorescence spectroscopy; calorimetry; PEG; cellulose ether; viscometry; cubic phase; liquid crystals; drugs; solid dispersion; Fysikalisk kemi; Physical chemistry; Fysikalisk kemi; Fysikalisk och oorganisk farmaceutisk kemi; Physical and Inorganic Pharmaceutical Chemistry;

    Sammanfattning : Cellulose ethers and polyethylene glycols are used in drug formulations as water swelling or water soluble matrices. Polar lipids, for example monoglycerides, and surfactants can be used to solubilise hydrophobic or amphiphilic drugs and to formulate potential drug delivery vehicles such as emulsions, liposomes and cubic phases.
