    Abstract : Some of the biggest problems currently facing the world are closely tied to unsolved technological challenges in the material sciences. Many materials have a porous microstructure that controls their overall properties. READ MORE

  3. 3. Characterization of Micro-Structures in Materials

    Author : Henrike Häbel; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Clustering; colloidal nanoparticle gels; image analysis; mass transport; point pattern; polymer blended films; pore shape; polymer blended films;

    Abstract : On developing the next generation sustainable soft materials, it is often crucial to understand and control their properties and function. Whereas a characterization of three-dimensional data is desirable in corresponding studies, often two-dimensional data are less time consuming to obtain. READ MORE

  4. 4. Nano-particulate Silica Hydrogels Imaged in 2D and 3D using TEM: Effects of local pore structure on mass transport and applications in aggregation dynamics

    Author : Charlotte Hamngren Blomqvist; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; silica gel; colloidal silica gel; interconnectivity; nanoporous; electron tomography; silica nanoparticle gel; mass transport; nanostructure; accessible volume fraction; 3D structure;

    Abstract : Porous materials are frequently used in everyday applications including food science, pharmaceuticals, fuel cell membranes, batteries and solar cells. A key aspect in these porous materials is how their micro- and nano-structure affect the internal transport of for example water, particles or charges. The transport is a three-dimensional process.
