  2. 11. Water-assisted mixing and compression moulding of ethylene-acrylic acid copolymer reinforced with nano-cellulose

    Author : Abhijit Venkatesh; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; thermal stability; cellulose nanocrystals; azetidinium; amphiphilic co-polymer; Nanocellulose; rheology; cellulose nanofibrils; water-assisted mixing.;

    Abstract : The concerns regarding aspects of global warming, depleting oil resources, accumulation of plastics in landfills has served as motivation to move towards utilizing sustainable and renewable resources to fulfil our needs. In the present work, the reinforcing capabilities of cellulose nanofibrils (CNF) and modified/unmodified cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) based composites prepared through water-assisted mixing, drying and compression moulding was explored.

  4. 12. Functionalization of Synthetic Polymers for Membrane Bioreactors

    Author : Hamidreza Barghi; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Bioreactor; Functionalization; Hydrophilic; Membrane; Polyamide 46; Synthetic polymer; Resursåtervinning; Resursåtervinning; Resource Recovery;

    Abstract : Membrane bioreactors (MBRs) show great promise for productivity improvement and energy conservation in conventional bioprocesses for wastewater reclamation. In order to attain high productivity in a bioprocess, it is crucial to retain the microorganisms in the bioreactors by preventing wash out. READ MORE

  5. 13. Thermoelectric plastics: Structure-property relationships of P3HT

    Author : Jonna Hynynen; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; P3HT; structure-property relationships; F4TCNQ; vapor doping; Thermoelectric plastic;

    Abstract : The advancing development of inter-connected small devices, so-called Internet of Things is increasing the demand for independent power sources. Heat is an abundant and often wasted source of energy, thermoelectric generators could be used to harvest this waste energy. Small devices such as heart-rate monitors or gas sensors etc. READ MORE

  6. 14. Conjugated polymers on plasmonic metasurfaces for high contrast electronic paper in color

    Author : Oliver Olsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; electrochromism; conjugated polymers; plasmonic electronic paper; PProDOT-Me2; reflective display;

    Abstract : Electronic paper is the collective name of displays that, instead of emitting light, reflect the ambient light. These displays are known to have good readability in daylight and very low power consumption. However, there is a lack of electronic paper in color with high contrast and the ability to achieve video speed. READ MORE

  7. 15. Interpolymer complexation of a polymer brush

    Author : John Andersson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; functional materials; macromolecular gating; Interpolymer complex; nanopores; polymer brush; pH responsive;

    Abstract : Controllable macromolecular gating between nanoscopic compartments is of high interest for single molecule studies of biological macromolecules. By definition, a good macromolecular gate should completely stop biomolecules, such as proteins, from crossing between compartments in its closed state while letting them pass in its open state.
