  1. 16. Thin films of polyfluorene:fullerene blends - Morphology and its role in solar cell performance

    Author : Cecilia Björström Svanström; Ellen Moons; Jean Manca; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Polymer Solar Cells; Polymer Blends; Morphology; Polyfluorene; PCBM; AFM; SIMS; Spin-Coating; Surface Directed Spinodal Decomposition; Physics; Fysik; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : The sun provides us daily with large quantities of energy in the form of light. With the world’s increasing demand of electrical energy the prospect of converting this solar light into electricity is highly tempting. In the strive towards mass-production and low cost solar cells, new types of solar cells are being developed, e.g. READ MORE

  2. 17. Spray and Spray Combustion Characteristics of Diesel-Ethanol Fuel Blends

    Author : Chengjun Du; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; combustion; spray images; Diesel-ethanol blends;

    Abstract : In Diesel engines, the quality of fuel atomization and fuel-air mixing inside the cylinder have important effects on the combustion process, and therefore strongly related to the fuel efficiency and emission formation. To understand how the injected fuel mixes with air and combustion processes in a Diesel engine, fundamental spray experiments can be carried out in a constant chamber under different engine-like conditions.

  3. 18. Lithium Ion Conductive Membranes Based on Co-continuous Polymer Blends

    Author : Anette Munch Elmér; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Polymerteknik; Polymer technology; biopolymers; conductivity measurements; in-situ UV-polymerisation; solution casting; poly methyl methacrylate ; vinylidene fluoride copolymers; poly ethylene carbonate-co-ethylene oxide methacrylate; PEG methacrylate macromonomers; heterogeneous polymer blends; polymer electrolyte membranes; lithium salt containing gels;

    Abstract : There is a growing need for multifunctional polymeric materials for the development of several important energy conversion technologies. For example, the polymer electrolyte is a key component in lithium polymer batteries. The basic functions of this electrolyte are to efficiently conduct the lithium ions and physically separate the electrodes. READ MORE

  4. 19. Chitosan and chitosan/wheat gluten blends : properties of extrudates, solid films and bio-foams

    Author : Fei Chen; Mikael Hedenqvist; Eliane Espuche; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : This thesis presents four different studis describing the characteristics and processing opportunities of two widely available biopolymers: chitosan and wheat gluten. The interest in these materials is mainly because they are bio-based and obtained as co- or by-products in the fuel and food sectorIn the first study, high solids content chitosan samples (60 wt.
