  2. 6. A biomimicking approach for hemicellulose processing

    Author : Petri Oinonen; Gunnar Henriksson; Edouard Pesquet; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mechanical pulping; Hemicellulose; Cross-linking; Lignin-carbohydrate-complex; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Abstract : Lignocellulose can become the best opportunity for the society to reduce its dependency on the harmful petroleum based products as well as to produce clean energy. In each part of the production cycle, biomass based products have a better environmental profiles than their petroleum based counterparts. READ MORE

  4. 7. Fixation of Functionalized DNA Nanostructures

    Author : Erik Lundberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; triplex recognition; dna; self-assembly; gel electrophoresis; nanotechnology; cross-linking; spectroscopy; fixation; fret; click chemistry;

    Abstract : This thesis features results from two different studies on a fully addressable non-repetitive network on the nanometre scale, assembled by synthetic DNA molecules. A bio-inspired molecular approach, based on principles of self-assembly, has brought about a paradigm shift in nanoscience, from a top-down to a bottom-up perspective. READ MORE

  5. 8. Upgrading Cellulose Networks: Conquering Limitations in Fiber Foams

    Author : Eliott Jean Quentin Orzan; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cross-linking; pore structure; cellular solid; lightweight; porous network; cellulose; flame-retardancy; fibers;

    Abstract : The battle to create structural materials with low environmental impact demands the investiture of two champions: porous structures and cellulose substrates. The dominant solutions when constructing strong lightweight materials are plastic and metallic foams, while currently, cellulose fiber foams suffer from challenges which hamper their development.

  6. 9. Proteoglycan Lectin Domain Interactions in Extracellular Matrix Assembly

    Author : Anders Olin; Infektionsmedicin; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Biomedicinska vetenskaper allmänt ; General biomedical sciences; crystal structure; network formation; collagen IX; N-glycans; PRELP; cross-linking; fibulin-2; lectin; G3; ECM; proteoglycan;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on the C-terminal G3 region of the large aggregating proteoglycans that are found in complex with hyaluronan in the extracellular matrix. The G3 region contains a C-type lectin domain that binds different extracellular matrix proteins playing an integral role in tissue organization during development and remodeling. READ MORE

  7. 10. Ion Transport in Cross-linked Nanocellulose Membranes

    Author : Hongli Yang; Isak Engquist; Magnus Berggren; Klaus-Dieter Kreuer; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Membranes; Nanocellulose; Cross-linking; Ion transport; Energy harvesting and storage devices;

    Abstract : Ion-selective membranes, which allow ions with a certain charge and/or size to pass through while blocking other ions, have attracted much attention due to their diverse applications and outstanding roles in overcoming problems related to energy. In addition to the performance, the financial cost and renewability of materials are equally significant in the development of these membranes. READ MORE
