    Author : Karin Odelius; Ann-Christine Albertsson; Helmut Keul; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ring-opening polymerization; L-lactide; 1; 5-dioxepane-2-one; ε-caprolactone; Polymerization kinetics; Star-shaped architecture; Spirocyclic tin initiator; Polymer chemistry; Polymerkemi;

    Abstract : Public health care has reached a level where tissue or organ reconstruction by means of biodegradable short-term implants via e.g. tissue engineering will be practicable in the near future. READ MORE

  2. 22. Functional Degradable Polymers : from the monomeric point of view

    Author : Peter Olsén; Ann-Christine Albertsson; Karin Docent; Andrew Dove; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Degradable polymers is key, within the future vison, of creating a sustainable society were all aspects, cradle to grave, can be realized in a sustainable way. It is imperative to consider, how the monomer is formed, its polymerization, the material properties created and the final degradation behavior. READ MORE

  3. 23. Birch xylan modification by lactide grafting

    Author : Johanna Persson; Ann-Christine Albertsson; Monica Ek; Mikael Lindström; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The wood based biorefinery concept has led to an increasing interest in the possibility of using hemicelluloses as a source for value added products. Hemicelluloses are dissolved in large amounts in the process liquor during kraft pulping. READ MORE

  4. 24. Design of Functional Degradable Aliphatic Polyesters and Porous Tissue Engineering Scaffolds

    Author : Peter Plikk; Ann-Christine Albertsson; Marek Kowalczuk; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ring-opening polymerization; Stannous octoate; 2; 2’-azoisobutyronitrile; 1; 5-dioxepane-2-one; ε-caprolactone; L-lactide; Trimethylene carbonate; 2-methylene-1; 3-dioxe-5-pene; Copolymer; Porous scaffold; Porous tubular scaffold; Electron beam; Gamma irradiation; Polymer chemistry; Polymerkemi;

    Abstract : The regeneration of damaged tissues or organs using porous scaffolds which act as temporary guides for the patient’s own cells, i.e. tissue engineering, is a means to overcome the shortcomings of current standard medical treatments. READ MORE

  5. 25. Porous degradable polyester scaffolds

    Author : Peter Plikk; Ann-Christine Albertsson; Johan Lind; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; aliphatic polyester; copolymer; porous scaffold; ring-opening polymerization; electron beam; gamma irradiation; Polymerteknologi; Chemistry; Kemi;

    Abstract : Tissue engineering is a growing research field in which degradable porous scaffolds are used to regenerate tissue from the patients own cells. The problems due to donor shortage or the lack of full property restoration from prosthetic implants can thereby be overcome. READ MORE
