2. 1. Biobased carbon fibers from solution spun lignocellulosic precursors

   Author : Andreas Bengtsson; Monica Ek; Maria Sedin; Elisabet Brännvall; Elisabeth Sjöholm; Johannes Ganster; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Carbon fiber; Carbonization; Cellulose; Kraft pulp; Softwood kraft lignin; Solution spinning; Stabilization; Barrvedslignin; Cellulosa; Karbonisering; Kolfiber; Lösningsmedelsspinning; Stabilisering; Sulfatmassa; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

   Abstract : Carbon fibers (CFs) have excellent mechanical properties and a low density, making themattractive as a reinforcing fiber in composites. The use of CFs is limited to high-end applications,since they are produced from an expensive fossil-based precursor via an energy-intensivemanufacturing process, explaining the need for cheaper CFs from renewables.

4. 2. Cellulose–Assisted Dispersion of Carbon Nanotubes : From Colloids to Composites

   Author : Alireza Hajian; Lars Berglund; Milo Shaffer; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Nanocelluloses; Carbon nanotubes; Composites; Colloids; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

   Abstract : It is a challenge to disperse nanoparticles to obtain a nanostructured composite. This thesis aims at providing a new route to fabricate carbon nanotube (CNT) composites and suggests mechanisms for nanocellulose–CNT interactions. This route is based on unmodified CNT dispersed in water with the help of nanocellulose. READ MORE

5. 3. Hybrid fiber preform fabrication using CO laser heating

   Author : Taras Oriekhov; Michael Fokine; Cruz José; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Preform; CO laser; silicon-core fiber; semiconductor-core fiber; specialty fiber; optical fiber.; Optik och fotonik; Optics and Photonics;

   Abstract : This thesis describes the development of a new prototyping technique for specialty optical fibers and covers all the fabrication steps from preform to fiber. The technique allows to produce fibers of a custom core structure and material composition, mainly focusing on semiconductor core fibers. READ MORE

6. 4. Carbon fibres from lignin-cellulose precursors

   Abstract : It is in the nature of the human species to find solutions of complex technical problems and always strive for improvements. The development of new materials is not an exception. One of the many man-made materials is carbon fibre (CF). READ MORE

7. 5. Cellulose derived carbon dots : From synthesis to evaluation as multifunctional building blocks in biomedical scaffolds

   Author : Nejla Benyahia Erdal; Minna Hakkarainen; Jukka Seppälä; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cellulose; microwave; carbon dots; polycaprolactone; scaffold; mineralization; drug loading; cellulosa; mikrovågor; kolnanopartiklar; polykaprolakton; stödmatris för vävnadsregenerering; mineralisering; läkemedelsbärare; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

   Abstract : The implementation of biobased and biodegradable polymeric materials in biomedical applications is often coupled with issues related to their insufficient mechanical properties or limited bioactivity. In this thesis, a perspective on valorization of biomass is presented, demonstrating the transformation of cellulose into biobased carbon nanomaterials with the potential to serve as multifunctional property enhancers in polycaprolactone (PCL) scaffold materials for tissue engineering.
