  1. 1. Lignin Conversion to Value-Added Small-Molecule Chemicals : Towards Integrated Forest Biorefineries

    Author : Omar Y. Abdelaziz; Avdelningen för kemiteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; aromatic monomers; biorefinery; catalysis; kraft lignin; lignin depolymerization; lignin valorization; microbial conversion; renewable chemicals; techno-economic analysis;

    Abstract : Lignin is the most abundant aromatic biopolymer on Earth and has significant potential as a feedstock for industrial use. Due to its intrinsic heterogeneity and recalcitrance, lignin has been regarded as a low-value side-product in the pulp and paper industry and in second-generation biorefineries. READ MORE

  2. 2. Proton-Conducting Sulfonated Aromatic Ionomers and Membranes by Chemical Modifications and Polycondensations

    Author : Elin Persson Jutemar; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Proton conductivity; Proton-exchange membrane fuel cells; Sulfonated polymer electrolytes; Sulfonated monomers; X-ray scattering; Sulfonation; Polymer electrolytes; Ionomers; Polycondensation; Polyaromatics;

    Abstract : Proton-exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC)s are increasingly regarded as promising environmentally benign power sources. Intensive development is today directed towards reducing the cost and increasing the durability of the fuel cell, as well as expanding the operational window for the PEMFC for a range of applications.

  3. 3. Ions colliding with Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons and Fullerenes

    Author : Fabian Seitz; Henning Schmidt; John Tanis; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : In this thesis a series of experiments on collisions between atomic projectile ions at keV energies and target vapors of either isolated molecules or van der Waals clusters is presented and analyzed. The atomic ions are produced in an Electron Cyclotron Resonance (ECR) ion source, accelerated and guided into the target volume. READ MORE

  4. 4. Bicyclo[3.3.1]nonanes as Scaffolds in Supramolecular Chemistry : From Host-Guest Systems to Hydrogen-Bonded Aggregates

    Author : Anna Lidskog; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; supramolecular chemistry; host-guest system; non-covalent interactions; hydrogen bonding; aromatic interactions; electrostatic interactions; synthetic receptors; self-assembly; nanotubes;

    Abstract : This thesis describes the use of bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane and its heteroanalogue 1,5- diazabicyclo[3.3. READ MORE

  5. 5. Durable Polysulfones with Densely Sulfonated Segments for Highly Proton Conducting Membranes

    Author : Shogo Takamuku; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; polymer electrolytes; sulfonations; polycondensation; polyaromatics; ionomers; sulfonated monomers; block copolymers; segmented copolymers; sequenced copolymers; poly arylene ether sulfone s; lithiations; sulfinations; metalations; phase-separation; highly sulfonations; macromonomers; blocky structures;

    Abstract : Fuel cells are considered as a promising alternative environmentally benign power source to the existing ones depending on petroleum oil. Especially, proton-exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) have been intensively developed during the last decade because of their wide application windows including various portable, stationary and transportation applications.
