  2. 6. An Investigation of Mixed Cellulose Esters and Acyclic Polyacetates: Effects of Side-Chain Lengths and Degrees of Ring-Opening

    Author : Robin Nilsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; water interactions; oxygen permeation; storage modulus; ring-opening; water sorption; cellulose esters; side-chains; acyclic cellulose acetate;

    Abstract : Bio-based polymers produced from natural sources are gaining an increased interest as potential replacement for today’s conventional fossil-based plastic polymers. Their use is already wide in many large-scale industrial areas such as healthcare, personal care, and food. READ MORE

  4. 7. Dissolution of cellulose in aqueous hydroxide base solvents

    Author : Beatrice Swensson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; aqueous; NaOH; quaternary ammonium hydroxide; solvent; cellulose; dissolution;

    Abstract : As we move towards a circular bioeconomy, new and advanced materials based on cellulose are constantly developed. Unlike most plastics or metals, cellulose cannot be melted, and therefore dissolution is an important tool for processing of cellulose but also for analytical purposes. READ MORE

  5. 8. Effects of methyl jasmonate on chemical defenses of conifer seedlings in relation to feeding by Hylobius abietis

    Abstract : The chemical elicitor methyl jasmonate (MeJA) could replace insecticides in Europe and Asia for protection of young conifers against the pine weevil (Hylobius abietis). This thesis mainly focuses on the effects of MeJA treatment on chemical defenses of conifers from seedling batches with documented field resistance. READ MORE

  6. 9. Development of advanced chemical biology tools for microbiome metabolism : Chemoselective probes for enhanced metabolomics analysis

    Author : Weifeng Lin; Daniel Globisch; Frank Schroeder; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Chemical biology; Chemoselective modification; Chemical metabolomics; Bioorganic; Microbiome metabolism; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : The human microbiome has a profound impact on host physiology by generating highly reactive compounds that can contribute to the development of diseases. These microbial metabolites have a substantial potential that can serve as valuable indicators or biomarkers for different health conditions. READ MORE

  7. 10. Investigations of Solvent Systems Based on bis-triazine-bipyridine (BTBP) - class Ligands for the Separation of Actinides from Lanthanides
