  1. 21. Engineering and Functionalization of Hemicellulose Hydrogels

    Författare :Weifeng Zhao; Karin Odelius; Ann-Christine Albertsson; Ulrica Edlund; Tina Vermonden; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :Hemicellulose; O-acetyl-galactoglucomannan; hydrogels; stimuli-responsive; aniline tetramer; aniline pentamer; electro-active; conductivity; pH-sensitivity; magnetic field-responsive; micro-gels; swelling; drug delivery.; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Sammanfattning : Hemicellulose is the second most abundant component in wood and is an important renewable resource  that is used in films, paper composites and biofuels.  Hemicelluloses  have  several  advantages,  including  their abundance,  degradability  and  renewability. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Properties and applications of materials based on graphite oxide

    Författare :Andreas Nordenström; Aleksandr V. Talyzin; Thomas Wågberg; Andrey Turchanin; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Graphene; Graphite Oxide; Graphene Oxide; Swelling; Phase Transition; Intercalation; Activated Graphene; Activated Carbon; Supercapacitors; Neutron Reflectometry;

    Sammanfattning : Graphite oxide (GO) is a hydrophilic, layered material prepared by oxidation of graphite. In the first part of this thesis, we studied materials produced from GO by intercalation and functionalization. The second part of the thesis was focused on supercapacitor applications of high surface area carbons prepared from GO using chemical activation. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Functional Copolymers of Polyvinylpyrrolidone

    Författare :Jonas Engström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; suspension polymerization; functional monomers; 1-vinylpyrrolidin-2-one; copolymerization; swelling; crosslinking; solid-phase synthesis; drug delivery vehicles.; phase-selective solubility; beads; Polyvinylpyrrolidone;

    Sammanfattning : In many ways, polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) has a unique combination of chemical and physical properties. Unlike most polymers it is soluble in water as well as a number of organic solvents. PVP also has excellent film forming properties, outstanding chemical stability, complexing ability, low toxicity, and good adherence to many different substrates. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Structure and Mechanical/Transport properties of Single and Multilayer Polyethylene-based Materials

    Författare :Nazanin Alipour; Ulf Gedde; Mats Johansson; Monica Ek; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Deltamethrin; piperonyl butoxide; polyethylene; migration; multilayer film; EVOH; n-hexane; crystallization; mechanical properties; X-ray scattering; swelling;

    Sammanfattning : The current study discusses the structure, mechanical and transport properties of polyethylene-based materials into two parts. The first part deals with the migration and chemical depletion of active substance such as insecticides from moulded polyethylene sheets. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Development of Novel In Situ ESEM Techniques for the Study of Water Interaction with Soft Materials

    Författare :Anna Jansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; environmental scanning electron microscopy; cellulose fibre; water transport; swelling; osmotic shock; yeast cell; in situ; manipulator; water interaction;

    Sammanfattning : The transport of water is central to many applications of soft biomaterials; for example water management in personal care products, controlled drug release in pharmaceuticals and, on a fundamental level, the activities of living cells. Water transport through a material may occur in both liquid and gas phase, and is highly dependent on the microstructure. LÄS MER
