  1. 6. Structure Evolution during Phase Separation and Gelation of Biopolymer Mixtures

    Författare :Niklas Lorén; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; microstructure; gelatin maltodextrin; biopolymer mixtures; structure evolution; phase separation; stereology; confocal laser scanning microscopy; image analysis; spinodal decomposition; transmission electron microscopy; gelation;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis focuses on the kinetics of phase separation and gelation in aqueous mixtures of gelatin and maltodextrin. The structure evolution of these mixtures at different length scales was recorded by confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The microstructure was quantified by image analysis. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Phase-field modeling of surface-energy driven processes

    Författare :Klara Asp Grönhagen; John Ågren; Suzana Fries; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Phase-field method; surface energy; solute drag; solid-state sintering; multicomponent multiphase flow; wetting; liquid-phase sintering; spinodal decomposition; CALPHAD; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Surface energy plays a major role in many phenomena that are important in technological and industrial processes, for example in wetting, grain growth and sintering. In this thesis, such surface-energy driven processes are studied by means of the phase-field method. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Phase Separation and Gelation of Biopolymers in Confined Geometries

    Författare :Sophia Wassén; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; gelation; gelatin–maltodextrin; whey protein isolate–gellan gum; structure evolution; confinement; biopolymer mixture; image analysis.; spinodal decomposition; phase separation; confocal laser scanning microscopy; microstructure;

    Sammanfattning : Many biopolymer mixtures exhibit segregative phase separation that generates regions enriched in one polymer and depleted in the other. Today, much is known of how phase separating biopolymer systems behaves in bulk phase, and the final morphology can be controlled and tailored with high precision. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Hierarchical Structuring of Mg2Si1-xSnx Alloys for Lower Thermal Conductivity and Thermal Conductivity as Probe for Structural Characterization

    Författare :Andrey Sizov; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; structural probing; Rietveld refinement; hot disc; spinodal decomposition; magnesium silicide-stannide; Microstructuring; phase separation; X-ray diffraction; thermal conductivity; thermoelectrics;

    Sammanfattning : The thermoelectric effect was discovered nearly 200 years ago, but it started to be utilized for waste heat recovery fairly recently. From the economical point of view, such application requires a cheap and efficient material, which is able to convert heat energy into electricity. LÄS MER
