  2. 2. Interactions between polymers and the environment

    Author : Nazanin Alipour; Mikael S. Hedenqvist; Antal Boldizar; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Deltamethrin; piperonyl butoxide; polyethylene; migration; multilayer film; EVOH; n-hexane; crystallization; mechanical properties; X-ray scattering; swelling; larvae; protein; lipid; moisture sorption; release; nanoclay; polypropylene; degradation; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Abstract : This dissertation addresses the structure and properties of a number of polymer-based materials when they come into contact with specific environments. The first part describes the migration and depletion of active substances from insecticide-impregnated polyethylene sheets in water and air at different humidity levels and higher temperatures.

  3. 3. Biodegradable nanocomposite films based on amylopectin and chitosan

    Author : David Nordqvist; Mikael Hedenqvist; Lars Berglund; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Polymer chemistry; Polymerkemi;

    Abstract : The use of disposable material is rapidly increasing, today the absolute majority of the material used for these application, i.e. food packages, are oil-based plastics such as polyethylene and polypropylene. Therefore it is of great importance to find alternative biodegradable materials made from renewable resources for this huge growing market. READ MORE

  4. 4. Oxygen-reducing enzymes in coatings and films for active packaging

    Author : Kristin Johansson; Lars Järnström; Caisa Johansson; Leif J. Jönsson; Jose M. Lagaron; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Active packaging; food packaging; oxygen scavengers; oxygen-reducing enzymes; dispersion coating; biopolymers; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : Oxygen scavengers are used in active packages to protect the food against deteriorative oxidation processes. The aim of this work was to investigate the possibilities to produce oxygen-scavenging packaging materials based on oxygen-reducing enzymes. READ MORE

  5. 5. Designed from Recycled: Microwave-Assisted Upcycling of Plastic Waste

    Author : Eva Bäckström; Minna Hakkarainen; Karin Odelius; Antal Boldizar; KTH; []
    Keywords : Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Abstract : Mismanagement of plastic waste is of great concern. To reach a more sustainable society, methodologies to handle materials in a more circular way needs to be developed. READ MORE
