  2. 1. Studies of water vapor transport and sorption in wood

    Author : Lars Wadsö; Avdelningen för Byggnadsmaterial; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; evaluation; measurements; non-Fickian behavior; absorption; sorption method; transient; unsteady-state; wood; sorption; surface mass transfer coefficient; water vapor; error analysis;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with the evaluation of measurements of water vapor transport and sorption in wood. It mainly concerns measurements of the weight response of a sample after a step change in relative humidity. The thesis consists of an introduction and eight papers. The eight papers have the following contents: 1. READ MORE

  5. 3. Skin hydration - How water and osmolytes influence biophysical properties of stratum corneum

    Author : Sebastian Björklund; Fysikalisk kemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Stratum corneum; diffusive transport; permeability; flow-through cell; Franz cell; transdermal drug delivery; water activity; vapor pressure; osmotic gradient; relative humidity; ceramide; free fatty acid; cholesterol; keratin filaments; natural moisturizing factor NMF ; urea; glycerol; molecular mobility; 13C natural-abundance solid-state NMR; polarization transfer; isothermal calorimetry; impedance spectroscopy; X-ray diffraction;

    Abstract : The outermost layer of skin (i.e., the stratum corneum, SC) is the interface that separates the water-rich inside of the body from the relatively dry external environment. SC forms an effective permeability barrier, which has to be overcome in transdermal drug delivery. READ MORE

  6. 4. Experimental studies of ice particle formation with tropospheric relevance

    Author : Erik Svensson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; heterogeneous nucleation; water; freezing; cloud droplets; levitation; electrodynamic balance; light scattering; oxalic acid; kaolinite; dinitrogen pentoxide;

    Abstract : In their fourth assessment report, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change points out the influence of particles suspended in air, known as an aerosol, as the main uncertainty in the understanding of the climate system. Aerosols affect climate in a number of ways. READ MORE

  7. 5. Experimental studies of sorption and transport of moisture in cement based materials with supplementary cementitious materials

    Author : Mahsa Saeidpour; Avdelningen för Byggnadsmaterial; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cement; Concrete; Moisture transport; Hysteresis; Supplementary cementitious materials; Water vapor sorption; Sorption isotherms; Anomalous sorption;

    Abstract : Most deterioration processes in cement based materials are closely related to moisture sorption and moisture transport properties. Therefore, it is important to study these properties, both theoretically and practically. This work is an experimental investigation in this field. READ MORE
