  4. 17. Low-temperature growth of alumina

    Author : Jon M. Andersson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Physical phenomena related to the growth of alumina, A12O3, are investigated by experiments and ab initio calculations. Alumina is a well studied material with applications in a variety of areas, due to its many beneficial properties. READ MORE

  5. 18. Shaping Macroporous Ceramics : templated synthesis, X-ray tomography and permeability

    Author : Linnéa Andersson; Lennart Bergström; Ludwig Gauckler; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Alumina; ceramic; CO2 capture; colloidal processing; expandable microspheres; gel casting; layer-by-layer; macroporosity; near-net shape; non-destructive evaluation; permeability; porosity; sacrificial templating; X-ray computed tomography; Chemistry; Kemi; Materials Chemistry; materialkemi;

    Abstract : Macroporous ceramic materials have found widespread technological application ranging from particulate filters in diesel engines, tissue engineering scaffolds, and as support materials in carbon capture processes. This thesis demonstrates how the pore space of macroporous alumina can be manipulated, analysed in three-dimensions (3D) using visualisation techniques, and functionalised with a CO2-adsorbing material.

  6. 19. Nitrogen and Water in High Temperature Corrosion - Insights from First Principle Calculations

    Author : Vedad Babic; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; DFT; alumina; nitridation; corrosion; chromia; hydrogen;

    Abstract : Service life-time of alloys used in high temperature applications is often limited by corrosion. FeCrAl(Re) alloys are partially designed to form a protective α-alumina oxide scale at elevated  temperatures in order to mitigate further oxidation. READ MORE

  7. 20. Sintering of nickel catalysts in the presence of NH3/H2

    Author : Johan Lif; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; stabilisation; hydrogen; nickel; ammonia; alumina; sintering; DFT calculation; catalyst deactivation;

    Abstract : Supported metal catalysts are used in many important industrial processes, where amination of alcohols is one example. The exposure of the supported metal catalyst to reaction conditions results usually to a decrease in catalytic activity, by for instance thermal degradation. READ MORE
