2. 1. Distributions Of Fiber Characteristics As A Tool To Evaluate Mechanical Pulps

   Author : Sofia Reyier Österling; Per Engstrand; Hans Höglund; Olof Ferritsius; Rita Ferritsius; Hans Ersson; Per Gradin; Mittuniversitetet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Fiber; fibre; fiber characteristics; fiber dimension; fiber properties; mechanical pulp; FiberLab; raw data; distribution; fiber wall thickness; BIN; bonding ability influence; bonding indicator; bonding ability; fiber width; fibrillation; collapse resistance; laboratory sheet; fiber analyzer; optical analyzer; TMP; CTMP; SGW; sheet model; prediction; fiber characterization; hydrocyclone; fractionation; kernel density estimation; KDE; diffusion mixing; acoustic emission; F0.90; Norway spruce; Picea abies;

   Abstract : Mechanical pulps are used in paper products such as magazine or news grade printing papers or paperboard. Mechanical pulping gives a high yield; nearly everything in the tree except the bark is used in the paper. This means that mechanical pulping consumes much less wood than chemical pulping, especially to produce a unit area of printing surface. READ MORE

4. 2. Micromechanics of Fiber Networks

   Author : Svetlana Borodulina; Artem Kulachenko; Sören Östlund; Mikael Nygårds; Pierre J.J. Dumont; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Network simulation; Mechanical properties; Fibers; Fiber-to-fiber bonds; Free fiber length; Number of contacts; Contact density; Paper properties; X-ray microtomography; Hållfasthetslära; Solid Mechanics;

   Abstract : The current trends in papermaking involve, but are not limited to, maintaining the dry strength of paper material at a reduced cost. Since any small changes in the process affect several factors at once, it is difficult to relate the exact impact of these changes promptly. READ MORE

5. 3. The cell wall ultrastructure of wood fibres : effects of the chemical pulp fibre line

   Author : Jesper Fahlén; Ulf W. Gedde; Drek G. Gray; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Chemical engineering; atomic force microscopy; cellulose; cell wall; drying; fiber; Kemiteknik; Chemical engineering; Kemiteknik;

   Abstract : Knowledge of the ultrastructural arrangement within wood fibres is important for understanding the mechanical properties of the fibres themselves, as well as for understanding and controlling the ultrastructural changes that occur during pulp processing. The object of this work was to explore the use of atomic force microscopy (AFM) in studies of the cell wall ultrastructure and to see how this structure is affected in the kraft pulp fibre line.

6. 4. Eco-friendly Holocellulose Materials for Mechanical Performance and Optical Transmittance

   Author : Xuan Yang; Lars Berglund; Eero Kontturi; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

   Abstract : Cellulosic materials can be sustainable replacements for fossil-based plastics; yet for some applications improvements are needed for mechanical properties, optical transmittance and eco-friendly characteristics. In this thesis, holocellulose materials are investigated for this purpose, and processing-structure-property relationships are discussed. READ MORE

7. 5. Continuously tunable narrow-linewidth fiber lasers

   Author : Xiong Yang; Valdas Pasiskevicius; Fredrik Laurell; Magnus Engholm; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fiber laser; Optik och fotonik; Optics and Photonics;

   Abstract : Narrow linewidth tunable fiber lasers have become an important tool in research and in-field applications thanks to their high beam quality, great spectral performance, compact structure and environmental robustness. Many methods have been introduced and developed throughout decades to fulfill the need for rapid wavelength adjustment of these fiber lasers. READ MORE
