2. 16. Cellulose in quaternary ammonium hydroxide solutions

   Author : Shirin Naserifar; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; quaternary ammonium hydroxides; cellulose; N; N-dimethylmorpholinium hydroxide; Triton B; NaOH; dissolution; TMAH; etherification;

   Abstract : An ever-increasing demand to shift away from fossil-based feedstock towards renewable resources has led to more use of bio-based materials. Cellulose being the most abundant biopolymer on Earth has received a considerable attention with a wide range of applications (in textile fibers, films, membranes, etc. READ MORE

4. 17. Manufacturing and Characterization of Cellulose Nanofibers

   Author : Carl Moser; Mikael Lindström; Gunnar Henriksson; Kristin Syverud; KTH; []

   Abstract : The usage of wood has been a dominant driving force during the evolution of the human species. It allowed us to cook food, build tools, put roofs over our head and explore the world. The fibers making up the tree has been the most important way to store and transmit knowledge in the form of paper for centuries. READ MORE

5. 18. Cellulose degradation in pulp fibers studied as changes in molar mass distributions

   Author : Rickard Berggren; KTH; []
   Keywords : cellulose; kraft pulp; birch; spruce; ozonation; acid hydrolysis; degradation; MMD; size-exclusion chromatography; light scattering; molar mass; chain scission;

   Abstract : In this thesis, size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) of woodpolymers dissolved in lithium chloride/N,N-dimethylacetamide(LiCl/DMAc) has been used to characterize the molar massdistributions (MMD) of wood polymers in pulp fibers afterchemical degradation.Characterization of birch kraft pulps subjected to ozonedegradation and acid hydrolysis, respectively, rendereddifferent changes in the MMD.

6. 19. Cladophora Cellulose-based Separators for Lithium Batteries

   Author : Ruijun Pan; Leif Nyholm; Maria Strömme; Jonas Lindh; Zhaohui Wang; Martin Winter; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cellulose; Separator; Paper making; Lithium-ion battery; Lithium-metal battery; Functionalization.; Kemi med inriktning mot materialkemi; Chemistry with specialization in Materials Chemistry;

   Abstract : The development of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) has been focused on exploring and improving the electrode materials and electrolytes in the past decades. An indispensable component, the separator, is however not studied as extensively. In general, a separator has two functions, i.e. READ MORE

7. 20. Investigating cellulose structure using solid-state NMR spectroscopy

   Abstract : Cellulose is the most abundant polymer in nature and it is an important constituent in most flowers, trees, and even some animals. Cellulose has an established use in many important products, such as textile fibers, paper and paperboard, and recently new applications have received increased attention. READ MORE
