  2. 1. 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

  4. 2. Wood fiber composites : processing, structure and properties

    Author : Lars-Olof Nordin; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Polymera konstruktionsmaterial; Polymeric Composite Materials;

    Abstract : The goal of this work has been to investigate how to make wood polymer composite materials with good mechanical properties, which also could be tailored for different applications. The fundamental idea behind the work was that good mechanical properties of the composite material require that the stiffness and strength of the wood cell wall material are really utilized.

  5. 3. Wood fiber composites : from processing and structure to mechanical performance

    Author : Lars-Olof Nordin; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Polymera konstruktionsmaterial; Polymeric Composite Materials;

    Abstract : The work presented in this thesis has been focused on the mechanical properties of wood fiber composites. One goal has been to investigate the processing of wood polymer composite materials with good mechanical properties, and how to tailor these properties for different applications. READ MORE

  6. 4. Natural fiber composites : optimization of microstructure and processing parameters

    Author : Birgitha Nyström; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Polymeric Composite Materials; Polymera konstruktionsmaterial;

    Abstract : Natural fiber composites, (NFC) are defined in this work as a group of materials where at least the fibers originates from renewable and CO2 neutral resources. NFC consists of a polymer matrix and a natural fiber. The fibers which originate from wood or plants can replace non-renewable fibers or fillers or simply replace part of the plastic. READ MORE

  7. 5. Nanostructured Cellulose Biocomposites : Effects from dispersion, network and interface

    Author : Mohd Farhan Ansari; Lars Berglund; Jean-Francois Gerard; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wood; cellulose nanofibrils; hygromechanical properties; network structure; thermoset; polymer matrix composites; natural fiber composites; pulp fiber; strain hardening; humidity; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Abstract : The major load bearing component in native wood, cellulose nanofibrils, are potential candidates for use as reinforcement in polymer matrices. This study is based on nanocellulose composites and attempts to prepare and characterize biocomposites with high nanocellulose content and investigate the influence of nanostructure on macroscopic properties.
