  1. 16. Heterogeneous Film-Forming Latexes : Preparation - Morphology - Mechanical Properties

    Author : Ola Karlsson; Fysikalisk kemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; core-shell; particle morphology; heterogeneous latexes; particle size; crosslinking; hydrophilicity; poly isoprene-co-styrene-co-methacrylic acid ; monomer partitioning; internal particle viscosity; transmission electron microscopy TEM ; calorimetric reactor; two-stage; seeded emulsion polymerization; film morphology; mechanical properties; paper coating.; Polymer technology; biopolymers; Polymerteknik;

    Abstract : This thesis describes the preparation of heterogeneous latexes, which may serve as binders in coating applications, and the characterization of these. The latexes were prepared in two-stage seeded emulsion polymerization. READ MORE

  2. 17. Dispersion Coating for Active Food Packaging: Aroma Interactions and Oxygen Scavenging

    Author : Anna Nestorson; Lars Järnström; Anders Leufvén; Caisa Andersson; José M. Lagaron; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Active food packaging; Dispersion coating; Latex; Aroma compounds; Oxygen scavenging; Chemical engineering; Kemiteknik; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : ABSTRACTActive packaging materials prolong the shelf life or preserve the quality of packed food by absorbing oxygen, ethylene, moisture or odours, or by releasing antimicrobial agents, antioxidants or flavours. In dispersion coating, a latex is applied onto paper or paperboard to form a barrier film against water, water vapour, oil or gases. READ MORE

  3. 18. Morphology of Polymers - Development of Electron Microscopy Methods

    Author : Helen Hassander; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SEM; TEM; polymer; electron microscopy; Polymer technology; biopolymers; Polymerteknik;

    Abstract : Most polymeric materials used today are not simple homopolymers, but consist of more than one polymer, which lead to morphologies of different length scale and shape. It is important to receive knowledge of the morphologies because the properties of the materials change depending on the structure. READ MORE

  4. 19. 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

  5. 20. Polymeric materials in nuclear power plants : Lifetime prediction, condition monitoring and simulation of ageing

    Author : Erik Linde; Ulf Gedde; Mikael Hedenqvist; Sue Burnay; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Nuclear power plants generate a significant part of the world’s electrical power consumption. However, many plants are nearing the end of their designed lifetime, and to extend the lifetime it is important to verify that every component can withstand the added service time. This includes polymeric materials, which become brittle with time. READ MORE
