  1. 1. Carbothermal synthesis of nano-structured metal, carbides and nitrides, using solution processed precursors; from precursor to product

    Author : Sarmad Naim Katea; Gunnar Westin; Hilmar Vidarsson; Sanjay Mathur; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Solution-based chemical processing; sol-gel; ceramic powders; transition metal carbides and nitrides; sintering; nickel binder; mechanical properties; Chemistry with specialization in Inorganic Chemistry; Kemi med inriktning mot oorganisk kemi;

    Abstract : This thesis describes how solution chemical based carbothermal syntheses can be used for the synthesis of nanostructured zirconium carbide and nitride nanophase powders as well as a nickel-metal coating on NbC for use as a sintering agent. The focus is on the development of novel synthesis routes using atomic or small nanoscale level mixing of the metal oxide and carbon source in the starting precursors, enabling the use of lower synthesis temperatures and non-agglomerated nanosized powders.

  2. 2. Designing multicomponent alloy coatings for corrosion protection

    Author : León Zendejas Medina; Ulf Jansson; Leif Nyholm; Zoe Barber; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; corrosion; thin films; coatings; magnetron sputtering; high entropy alloy; percolation theory; mechanical tests; Chemistry with specialization in Inorganic Chemistry; Kemi med inriktning mot oorganisk kemi;

    Abstract : This thesis explores the design of metallic coatings for corrosion protection. The subject of the study was the new class of materials multicomponent alloys (MCAs, also known as high entropy alloys). They consist of near-equal concentrations of many (four or more) metals and are often reported to form a single phase with a simple crystal structure. READ MORE

  3. 3. Transition metal and alloy catalysts in the light of computational materials modelling

    Author : Ageo Meier de Andrade; Peter Broqvist; Jolla Kullgren; Elsebeth Schröder; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; density functional theory; dispersion corrections; density functional analysis; transition metal; alloys; work function; lignin valorization; keto-enol tautomerization; Kemi med inriktning mot materialkemi; Chemistry with specialization in Materials Chemistry;

    Abstract : This thesis is built around two pillars. One is heterogeneous catalysis in the broader context of green chemistry. The focus here is on identifying catalytically active materials suitable for the valorization of renewable feedstocks. READ MORE

  4. 4. Insights in Li-ion Battery Interfaces through Photoelectron Spectroscopy Depth Profiling

    Author : Bertrand Philippe; Kristina Edström; Danielle Gonbeau; Hakan Rensmo; Rémi Dedryvère; Rosa Palacin; Maria Alfredsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Lithium-ion batteries; negative electrodes; silicon; MnSn2; SEI; PES; XPS; synchrotron; Chemistry with specialization in Inorganic Chemistry; Kemi med inriktning mot oorganisk kemi;

    Abstract : Compounds forming alloys with lithium, such as silicon or tin, are promising negative electrode materials for the next generation of Li-ion batteries due to their higher theoretical capacity compared to the current commercial electrode materials.An important issue is to better understand the phenomena occurring at the electrode/electrolyte interfaces of these new materials.

  5. 5. Reaching Kinetic Selectivities : In Pursuing Novel Ternary Oxide Coatings, and Beyond

    Author : Sebastian Öhman; Mats Boman; Tobias Törndahl; Maarit Karppinen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; CVD; coatings; kinetics; crystallization; nucleation; diffusionless; Al2TiO5; oxides; Chemistry with specialization in Inorganic Chemistry; Kemi med inriktning mot oorganisk kemi; Kemi med inriktning mot materialkemi; Chemistry with specialization in Materials Chemistry;

    Abstract : Kinetically driven synthesis pathways have the potential to allow new ways to develop materials and phases with much-improved properties. This particularly concerns metastable and multicomponent phases that require a selective kinetic targeting during the synthesis to circumvent the formation of thermodynamically stable products.
