  2. 6. Novel oil resistant cellulosic materials

    Author : Christian Aulin; Lars Wågberg; Derek Gray; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; oleophobic; MFC; cellulose; oil resistant; contact angle; XPS; SEM; Cellulose and paper engineering; Cellulosa- och pappersteknik;

    Abstract : The aim of this study has been to prepare and characterise oil resistant cellulosic materials, ranging from model surfaces to papers and aerogels. The cellulosic materials were made oil resistant by chemical and topographic modifications, based on surface energy, surface roughness and barrier approaches. READ MORE

  4. 7. Integrated Cellulosic Wood Aerogel Structures

    Author : Jonas Garemark; Yuanyuan Li; Lars Berglund; Gustav Nyström; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Aerogel; cellulose; energy harvesting; ionic liquids; nanotechnology; wood; thermal insulation; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Abstract : Highly porous aerogels based on renewable materials that possess structural functionality are appealing for sustainable energy regulation and harvesting. Achieving structural anisotropy provides advantageous directional diffusion and mechanical strength, however, introduces great engineering challenges, such as complex, costly, and time-consuming processing.

    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Antibacterial; antifungal; cellulosic; mold; bacteria; biobased; bio-based; renewable; insulation; packaging; water treatment; water purification; paper filter; paper; membrane; Antibakteriell; fungicid; mögel; antimögel; pappersfilter; vattenrening; membran; papper; bakterier; cellulosa; förpackning; isolering; förnyelsebar; biobaserade; nya material; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Abstract : The transition to a more biobased society introduces both new opportunities and new challenges as we replace nonrenewable materials with renewable alternatives. One important challenge will be to control microbial growth on materials, both to protect the materials from biological degradation and to prevent the spread of infections and toxins that can cause illness.

  6. 9. Chemical Functionalization and Characterization of Cellulosic Materials

    Author : Hanna de la Motte; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Nuclear magnetic resonance; Crosslinking; High bulk networks; Cotton linters; Cationization; Nanocrystalline cellulose; Softwood kraft pulp; Characterization;

    Abstract : Polysaccharides are the most abundant biopolymers produced in nature and belong, together with proteins and nucleic acids, to the main components of life. Polysaccharides are polyhydroxylic polymers that can be functionalized by a wide selection of chemical reactions, and modifications of these biopolymers are applicable in the development of new materials.
