  2. 1. Thermally Expandable Microspheres Prepared via Suspension Polymerization - Synthesis, Characterization, and Application

    Author : Magnus Jonsson; Eva Malmström Jonsson; Søren Hvilsted; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Thermally expandable microspheres; Polymer chemistry; Polymerkemi;

    Abstract : Thermally expandable microspheres are polymeric core/shell particles in which a volatile hydrocarbon is encapsulated by a thermoplastic shell. When these microspheres are heated, they expand and increase their volume dramatically. READ MORE

  4. 2. From Responsive Interfaces to Honeycomb Membranes by Controlled Radical Polymerisation

    Author : Daniel Nyström; Anders Hult; Søren Hvilsted; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Isoporous membranes; Silica nanoparticles; ATRP; Functional surfaces; cellulose; Polymer chemistry; Polymerkemi;

    Abstract : In this study, surface modification of both organic and inorganic substrates (in terms of cellulose and silica nanoparticles, respectively) has been explored using surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerisation (ATRP). The desire to modify bio-based materials to fit into new application areas and the need for bio-based materials with improved material properties is steadily increasing due to environmental concern.

  5. 3. Chemical Pathways for Galactoglucomannan-based Materials

    Author : Jens Voepel; Ann-Christine Albertsson; Ulrica Edlund; Søren Hvilsted; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Polysaccharides; hemicelluloses; galactoglucomannan; renewable; chemical modification; hydrogels; swelling; crosslinking; release; SET-LRP; living polymerization; grafting; hybrid materials; Polymer chemistry; Polymerkemi;

    Abstract : Polysaccharides are an important resource for a variety of products, from food via fuel supply to functional materials of every kind. Due to their natural diversity they can be found in many special applications, e.g. in the biomedical sector and are the major renewable resource for materials of many kinds. READ MORE
