  2. 1. Functional PVC Additives : Core-Shell Nanoparticle and Renewable Resource Plasticizers

    Author : Bo Yin; Minna Hakkarainen; Mikael Skrifvars; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; PVC; nanocomposite; nanoparticle; core-shell; plasticizer; renewable resources; isosorbide; glucose;

    Abstract : Several functional poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) additives were designed: PVC plasticizers made from renewable resources as alternatives to traditional phthalate plasticizers and core-shell nanoparticle-plasticizers with the aim to design an additive that can improve several mechanical properties simultaneously. Monomeric and oligomeric PVC plasticizers based of isosorbide and glucose were synthesized. READ MORE

  4. 2. Aerosol Generated Core-shell Nanoparticles : Synthesis and Characterization

    Author : Markus Snellman; NanoLund: Centre for Nanoscience; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; aerosol technology; core-shell particles; nanoparticles; Janus particles;

    Abstract : Aerosol technology is a promising platform to synthesize and study core-shellnanoparticles - a multi-elemental nanoparticle system where the core of one material is covered by a shell of another material. In this thesis, two distinctly separate strategies have been explored to synthesize core-shell nanoparticles by aerosol methods: physical vapor deposition (PVD) by evaporation, and surface segregation via thermal treatment.

  5. 3. Ceramic Core–Shell Particles : Synthesis and Use within Dentistry

    Author : Camilla Berg; Wei Xia; Håkan Engqvist; Nicola Döbelin; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Calcium phosphate; Core-shell particles; Substituting ions; Dentin hypersensitivity; Occlusion; Mineralization; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot materialvetenskap; Engineering Science with specialization in Materials Science;

    Abstract : Dentin hypersensitivity is one of the most prevalent conditions related to oral health, affecting a large share of the adult population. Shortcomings with the available treatment options are related to non-ideal particle sizes and degradation properties. READ MORE

    Abstract : The organisation of fluids in small compartments is ubiquitous in nature, such as in the cellular composition of all life. This work explores several engineering avenues where microscale fluid compartmentalization can bring novel material properties or novel functionality in life sciences or medicine. READ MORE

  7. 5. Engineered core : shell nanoparticles: synthesis, characterisation, and biocompatibility studies

    Author : Carmen Mihaela Vogt; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) have emerged as promising contrast agents for Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). Some SPIONs are already approved for clinical use. Coating of these nanoparticles with an additional biocompatible layer serves to improve the colloidal stability and biocompatibility. READ MORE
