  1. 1. Adsorption of biopolymers and their layer-by-layer assemblies on hydrophilic surfaces

    Author : Maria Lundin; Eva Blomberg; Thomas Arnebrant; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Layer-by-layer; multilayer; adsorption; biopolymers; Chitosan; Heparin; Mucin; Albumin; Lysozyme; β-casein; SDS; QCM-D; Ellipsometri; DPI; TIRF; FRET; SFA; layer structure; solvent content; vertical diffusion; exponential growth; solid-liquid interface; deposition conditions; Surface and colloid chemistry; Yt- och kolloidkemi;

    Abstract : It is widely known that surfaces play an important role in numerous biological processes and technological applications. Thus, being able to modify surface properties provides an opportunity to control many phenomena occurring at interfaces. READ MORE

  2. 2. Surface Force and Friction : effects of adsorbed layers and surface topography

    Author : Xiaoyan Liu; Per Claesson; Bjorn Torger Stokke; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Friction; nanotribology; surface forces; diblock copolymer; lipid; QCM-D; AFM; optical reflectometry; neutron reflectivity; X-ray reflectivity; micro-patterned surface; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Interfacial features of polymers are a complex, fascinating topic, and industrially very important. There is clearly a need to understand interactions between polymer layers as they can be used for controlling surface properties, colloidal stability and lubrication. The aim of my Ph. READ MORE

  3. 3. Inhibition of Aluminium Pigments for Waterborne Coatings

    Author : Philip Karlsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; hydrogen evolution; AFM; surfactant; aluminium pigment; polymer; silica stabilisation; water based; adsorption; inhibition; waterborne; printing ink; QCM-D; AAS; reflectometry; encapsulation; paint; metallic pigment; coating; XPS;

    Abstract : Micrometer-sized aluminium flakes for use as pigments in waterborne coatings need protection, since the reaction between aluminium and water causes formation of aluminium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. The aluminium hydroxide destroys the metallic appearance of the pigment flakes and the evolution of hydrogen gas leads to a dangerous pressure build-up in the paint containers. READ MORE

  4. 4. Interactions Between Biopolymers and Surfactants with Focus on Fluorosurfactants and Proteins

    Author : Lubica Macáková; Per Claesson; Fredrik Höök; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Organic chemistry; Organisk kemi;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis was to obtain a better understanding of the association between surfactants and biopolymers in bulk solutions and at solid/aqueous liquid interface. In order to do this, the interactions between surfactants and biopolymers were investigated with a variety of experimental techniques. READ MORE
