  2. 1. Synergies in Biolubrication

    Author : Akanksha Raj; Andra Dedinaite; Imre Varga; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biolubrication; Synergies; Adsorption; Surface Force; Friction; Load Bearing Capacity; Self Healing; Phospholipids; DPPC; Hyaluronan; COMP; Lubricin; QCM-D; AFM; XRR.; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : The objective of this thesis was to advance understanding in the field of biolubrication, finding inspiration from the human synovial joints. This was addressed by investigating the association of key biolubricants and the resulting lubrication performance. READ MORE

  4. 2. Protective and Nanoporous Alumina Films Studied in situ by X-ray and Electrochemical Methods

    Author : Jonas Evertsson; NanoLund: Centre for Nanoscience; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; XRR; XPS; XRF; GTSAXS; EIS; Synchrotron Radiation; Native oxide; Anodization; Anodic aluminum oxide; Nanoporous aluminum oxide; Single crystal; Aluminum alloys; in situ; Fysicumarkivet A:2018:Evertsson;

    Abstract : In this thesis, the studies of native and anodic oxides on both aluminum model single crystal surfaces as well as on aluminum alloys found in applications are presented. The focus has been on the characterization in situ as the oxide is growing by an electrochemical process called anodization. READ MORE

  5. 3. Industrial Alloys Studied by Surface Sensitive Techniques

    Author : Lisa Rullik; Synkrotronljusfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; aluminum alloy; brazing; AA 6063; duplex stainless steel; SAF 2507; XPS; APXPS; XPEEM; XRR; microstructure; aluminiumlegering; hårdlödning; AA 6063; duplexstål; SAF 2507; XPS; APXPS; XPEEM; XRR; mikrostruktur;

    Abstract : This thesis reports on surface studies of industrial materials whose importance for society manifests in the vast range of applications. In industrial materials alloying is performed in order to improve the parent material's physical and mechanical properties such as strength, corrosion and wear resistance, as well as high temperature performance in comparison to the pure metal.

  6. 4. Enhanced Polarizing Neutron Optics with 11B4C Incorporation : SLD Tunability, Interface Refinement, and Elimination of Magnetic Coercivity

    Author : Anton Zubayer; Fredrik Eriksson; Jens Birch; Naureen Ghafoor; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : This thesis explores novel strategies for improving Fe-based polarizing neutron optics, a critical part for improving neutron scattering methods to study materials science, physics, biology, medicine, chemistry and cultural heritage. Polarization analysis is important in uncovering data on magnetic domains, protein structures, molecular composition and orientation in biological systems, and ion-diffusion mechanisms that would otherwise be inaccessible.

  7. 5. Passivity & Breakdown of Super Duplex Stainless Steel : Studied with Electrochemical & Synchrotron Techniques

    Author : Marie Långberg; Jinshan Pan; David Lindell; Ulf Kivisäkk; Edvin Lundgren; Sannakaisa Virtanen; KTH; []
    Keywords : Passive film; duplex stainless steel; synchrotron X-ray reflectivity; X-ray diffraction; X-ray fluorescence; hard X-ray Photoelectron emission microscopy; X-ray Photoelectron spectroscopy; Electrochemical impedance; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Super duplex stainless steel consists of two phases: austenite and ferrite, and is a highly corrosion resistant material, with a wide range of applications. The corrosion resistance of stainless steels is determined by the performance of a spontaneously formed thin Cr oxide rich film with a thickness of 1-3 nm. READ MORE
