  1. 1. Surface Modification of Cellulose by Covalent Grafting and Physical Adsorption for Biocomposite Applications

    Author : Carl Bruce; Eva Malmström; Anna Carlmark; Linda Fogelström; Youssef Habibi; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : There is an increasing interest to replace fossil-based materials with renewable alternatives. Cellulose fibers/nanofibrils (CNF) are sustainable options since they are biobased and biodegradable. In addition, they combine low weight with high strength; making them suitable to, for example, reinforce composites. READ MORE

  2. 2. Bio-based barriers from wood hydrolysates : A pilot-scale approach

    Author : Soheil Saadatmand; Ulrica Edlund; Youssef Habibi; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wood hydrolysate; biorefinery; oxygen permeability; multilayer barriers; food packaging.; vedhydrolysat; syrgaspermeabilitet; barriärskikt; livsmedelsförpackning;

    Abstract : Wood hydrolysates (WHs) are liquids extracted from the hydrothermal treatment of wood. They exist as the byproduct of forestry industries such as the dissolving pulp and fiberboard industries. WHs are hemicellulose-based with a large share of lignin in the chemical composition.

  3. 3. Recyclable High Performance Thermosets from Biobased Rigid Building Blocks

    Author : Yunsheng Xu; Minna Hakkarainen; Karin Odelius; Youssef Habibi; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Abstract : The finite petroleum resources and increasing polymer waste have given rise to concerns associated with the origin and end of life management of polymer materials. Developing biobased and recyclable thermosets is an important and still underexplored part of this process, especially as thermosets also possess inherent recycling issues caused by their crosslinked structure.
