  2. 11. γ-Radiation Induced Synthesis of Metal oxides : Control of Particle Size, Composition, and Morphology

    Author : Zhuofeng Li; Mats Jonsson; Hynd Remita; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; γ-radiation induced synthesis; Metal oxide nanoparticles; Metal oxide nucleation; Mesocrystal formation; Carbon black reactivity towards radical; PVP nanogel.;

    Abstract : Nanomaterials show a significant difference in chemical, mechanical, electronic, magnetic and optical properties compared with bulk counterparts. The synthesis is a key-step to achieve the unique properties of nanomaterials. READ MORE

  4. 12. Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases for green production of cellulose nanomaterials

    Author : Salla Koskela; Qi Zhou; Markus Linder; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cellulose; enzyme; CNC; CNF; LPMO; nanocellulose; wood; Biotechnology; Bioteknologi;

    Abstract : Cellulose is the main structural polymer in wood, and its potential in the form of nanomaterial building blocks, nanocelluloses, has now been recognized. Nanocelluloses, including cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) and cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs), have become increasingly important in development of modern sustainable materials. READ MORE

  5. 13. Formation of nanoparticles by laser-activated processes

    Author : Lars Landström; Mats Boman; Peter Heszler; Joop Schoonman; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Inorganic chemistry; nanoparticles; laser-assisted CVD; laser ablation; emission spectroscopy; size-distribution; Oorganisk kemi; Inorganic chemistry; Oorganisk kemi; Inorganic Chemistry; oorganisk kemi;

    Abstract : Due to the small dimensions, nanoparticles and materials consisting of nano-sized building blocks exhibit unique — mostly superior — properties, well differing from their bulk counterpart. Most of the novel properties of nanoparticles (and nanomaterials) are size-dependent, while the majority of the common gasphase methods used for generation of nanopowders result in different, usually wide, size-dispersions.

  6. 14. Multifunctional Nanocellulose Composite Materials

    Author : Olof Eskilson; Daniel Aili; Robert Selegård; Erik Martinsson; Aji Mathew; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; nanomaterials; nanocomposites; bacterial cellulose; wound care; plasmonics; catalysis;

    Abstract : Nanoparticles (NPs) are particles with more than one dimension between 1 and 100 nm. Because of their small size, they typically display different physical and chemical properties than the corresponding bulk materials. NPs have been used in many different applications, such as in electronics, optics, catalysis, and in biomedicine. READ MORE

  7. 15. Low dimensional Zinc- and Copper Oxides and their Electronic, Vibrational and Photocatalytic Properties
