  1. 1. In-plane mechanical properties of acetylated birch plywood and its response to humidity elevation

    Author : Yue Wang; Magnus Wålinder; Roberto Crocetti; Marie Johansson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Birch plywood; wood modification; acetylation; in-plane mechanical properties; load-to-face grain angle; moisture effect; Björkplywood; trämodifiering; acetylering; mekaniska egenskaper i planet; belastningsriktning; klimategenskaper; Building Materials; Byggnadsmaterial;

    Abstract : Due to the recent flourish of modern timber structures, there is an increasing demand for engineered wood products (EWPs). However, outdoor exposure of EWPs often poses a risk of durability-related issues. READ MORE

  2. 2. Multifunctional carbohydrate-based soft materials from cereal by-products

    Author : Secil Yilmaz Turan; Francisco Vilaplana; Rosana Moriana; Amparo Jiménez Quero; Anna Ström; KTH; []
    Keywords : wheat bran; corn bran; hemicellulose; arabinoxylan; ferulic acid; subcritical water extraction; acetylation; films; hydrogels; crosslinking; regeneration; antioxidant activity; vetekli; majskli; hemicellulosa; arabinoxylan; ferulsyra; subkritisk vattenextraktion; acetylering; filmer; hydrogeler; tvärbindning; regeneration; antioxidant aktivitet; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

    Abstract : Cereal production generates large quantities of by-products every year, which still remain underutilized. The hemicellulose fractions from cereal by-products are anticipated to play an important role in tomorrow's sustainable and bio-based circular economy. READ MORE

  3. 3. Wood Hemicelluloses - Fundamental Insights on Biological and Technical Properties

    Author : Jennie Berglund; Mikael Lindström; Gunnar Henriksson; Francisco Vilaplana; Jakob Wohlert; Martin Lawoko; Maija Tenkanen; KTH; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; hemicellulose; wood; glucomannan; xylan; structure; acetylation; flexibility; solubility; interaction with cellulose; stability.; hemicellulosa; trä; glukomannan; xylan; struktur; acetylering; flexibilitet; löslighet; interaktion med cellulosa; stabilitet.; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Abstract : Hemicelluloses are a group of heterogeneous polysaccharides representing around 30 % of wood where the dominating types are xylans, glucomannans and xyloglucans. Hemicelluloses complex molecular structure makes it difficult to understand the relationship between structure and properties entirely, and their biological role is not yet fully verified. READ MORE

  4. 4. Surface-modified wood based on silicone nanofilaments for improved liquid repellence

    Author : Haiyan Yin; Magnus Wålinder; Agne Swerin; Andra Dédinaité; Lars Wadsö; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wood; acetylated wood; surface modification; superamphiphobicity; superhydrophobicity; plastron; silicone nanofilaments; multicycle Wilhelmy plate method.; Trä; acetylerat trä; ytmodifiering; superamfifobicitet; superhydrofob; plastron; silikon-nanofilament; multicykel Wilhelmy-metod; Building Materials; Byggnadsmaterial;

    Abstract : The increasing awareness of sustainability motivates the development of building materials from renewable resources. The requirements of wood-based products with improved durability, for example, an enhanced liquid repellence, is still a challenge. READ MORE

  5. 5. Tumor Selective Antiproliferative Naphthoxylosides

    Author : Ulrika Aili; Glykobiologigruppen; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; glycosaminoglycan; proteoglycan; heparan sulfate; xyloside; naphthoxyloside; histone H3 acetylation;

    Abstract : Proteoglycans (PG) are highly anionic macromolecules consisting of a core protein covalently substituted with long unbranched polysaccharide chains called glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). PGs are central components in multicellular organisms, and they may occur in the extracellular matrix (ECM), at the cell surface, or in the secretory pathway. READ MORE
