2. 1. Absorbent Materials from Kraft Pulp

   Author : Fredrik Wernersson Brodin; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; retention; MFC; oxidation; Absorbent; absorption; TEMPO; freeze drying; disintegration;

   Abstract : SuperAbsorbent Polymers (SAPs) have, since being introduced in the 1980s, become an important constituent in hygiene products, such as disposable diapers. The design of disposable diapers has changed over the years and today thinner products can be produced partly because of the excellent absorption and retention properties of the petrochemical-based SAPs.

4. 2. Mechanical Pulp-Based Nanocellulose : Processing and applications relating to paper and paperboard, composite films, and foams

   Author : Sinke Henshaw Osong; Per Engstrand; Sven Norgren; Mark Martinez; Mittuniversitetet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; mechanical pulp; thermo-mechanical pulp; chemi-thermomechanical pulp; fractionation; fines; homogenisation; nanocellulose; nano-ligno-cellulose; microfibrillated cellulose; nanofibrillated cellulose; paper; strength properties; crill; TEMPO; nanographite NG ; composite films;

   Abstract : This thesis deals with processing of nanocellulose originating from pulps, with focus on mechanical pulp fibres and fines fractions. The nanocellulose materials produced within this research project were tested for different purposes ranging from strength additives in paper and paperboard products, via composite films to foam materials.

5. 3. Synthesis of N-Containing Compounds: Development of Methodology and its Application in Total Synthesis

   Author : Lu Yu; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; a-keto amides; enamine catalysis; pyrrolidine; TEMPO; a-keto thioamides; a-keto amidines; a-amino-b-hydroxy ester; asymmetric transfer hydrogenation; alexine; dynamic kinetic resolution; hydroamination; 1; 2-diamines; enamines; copper;

   Abstract : This thesis aims to develop new synthetic methods and explore the possibilities to apply it in the total synthesis of natural products.Chapter 2 deals with a mild procedure for the synthesis of a-keto amides by a-oxidation of the corresponding aketo amines mediated by pyrrolidine and TEMPO.

6. 4. Manufacturing and Characterization of Cellulose Nanofibers

   Author : Carl Moser; Mikael Lindström; Gunnar Henriksson; Kristin Syverud; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cellulose; Nanofibers; Characterization; Homogenization; Endoglucanase; TEMPO; Specific surface area; Atomic force microscopy; Cellulosa; Nanofibrer; Karakterisering; Homogenisering; Endoglukanas; TEMPO; Specifik ytarea; Atomkraftmikroskopi; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

   Abstract : The usage of wood has been a dominant driving force during the evolution of the human species. It allowed us to cook food, build tools, put roofs over our head and explore the world. The fibers making up the tree has been the most important way to store and transmit knowledge in the form of paper for centuries. READ MORE

7. 5. The tempo and mode of evolution : a neontological reappraisal

   Author : Melanie Monroe; Folmer Bokma; Pär Ingvarsson; Mikael Fortelius; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; birds; extinction; macroevolution; mammals; microevolution; punctuated equilibrium; speciation;

   Abstract : The theory of “punctuated equilibrium” suggests that species evolve rapidly during or immediately upon speciation, “punctuating” long periods of little or no morphological evolution. Here I confirm that body size differences within clades of birds and mammals are best explained using a model of punctuated evolution. READ MORE
