  1. 16. Ion exchange processes on float glass surfaces

    Author : Stefan Karlsson; Bo Jonson; Sven Lidin; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Glasteknologi; Glass Technology;

    Abstract : Glass can be strengthened by ion exchange and this process is presently used inspecial applications e.g. aircraft windshields, displays and spectacle lenses allowinga higher production cost. READ MORE

  2. 17. Urban Surfaces as Sources of Stormwater Pollution : An Evaluation of Substances Released from Building Envelopes

    Author : Alexandra Müller; Maria Viklander; Helene Österlund; Jiri Marsalek; Per-Arne Malmqvist; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; VA-teknik; Urban Water Engineering; Centre - Centre for Stormwater Management DRIZZLE ; Centrumbildning - Centrum för dagvattenhantering DRIZZLE ;

    Abstract : Stormwater is an important transport pathway for pollutants from the urban environment into receiving water bodies, and, thus, it contributes to the deterioration of urban surface waters. The aim of this Licentiate thesis was to advance the understanding of the contributions of urban stormwater pollutants from building surface materials, and evaluate the implications for stormwater quality.

  3. 18. Compression uniformity measurements on coated anduncoated paper surfaces

    Author : Isabel Endres; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : Paper is exposed to compressive stresses at several occasions in its production process and in subsequent printing operations. In the press section of a paper machine, the fibre web is mechanically dewatered by compression. READ MORE

  4. 19. Molecular-Level Investigations of Water-Organic Systems of Atmospheric Relevance

    Author : Sofia M. Johansson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; EMB method; desorption kinetics; water uptake; organic surfaces;

    Abstract : It is known that aerosol particles may have warming and/or cooling effects on the climate and negative health effects that depend on their chemical and physical properties. However, current understanding of atmospheric particles’ effects is poor due to the diversity of their constituents and associated variations in properties. READ MORE

  5. 20. Development of materials, surfaces and manufacturing methods for microfluidic applications

    Author : Carl Fredrik Carlborg; Wouter van der Wijngaart; Shoji Takeuchi; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; microsystem technology; MEMS; microfluidics; polymers; off-stoichiometry thiol-ene; point-of-care; lab-on-chip; Electrical engineering; electronics and photonics; Elektroteknik; elektronik och fotonik;

    Abstract : This thesis presents technological advancements in microfluidics. The overall goals of the work are to develop new miniaturized tests for point-of-care diagnostics and robust super-lubricating surfaces for friction reduction. To achieve these goals, novel materials, surfaces and manufacturing methods in microfluidics have been developed. READ MORE
