1. Tight-Binding Modelling of Deep Eutectic Solvent-Based Lithium Battery Electrolytes
Abstract : In recent years, there has been a growing interest in utilizing liquid electrolytes such as deep eutectic solvents (DES) as electrolytes for lithium batteries, owing to their numerous advantageous properties, including ease of preparation, tunability, wide electrochemical stability windows, and low vapor pressures. However, an aspect that remains poorly understood is the intricate relationship between the local structural symmetry, entropy, and the macroscopic properties of DES electrolytes. READ MORE

2. Hybrid Solvents based on Ionic Liquids/Deep Eutectic Solvents for CO2 Separation : Experiments, Modeling, Process Simulation and Evaluation
Abstract : CO2 separation plays a vital role in reducing CO2 emissions to combat climate change, in which solvent-based absorption is widely considered the most promising technology. Many conventional chemical and physical solvents have been introduced for CO2 separation, still facing challenges. READ MORE

3. New Strategies for Preparing Polymers with Hierarchical Architectures
Abstract : The objective of this thesis was to explore novel approaches for controlling morphologies and molecular recognition behaviour of polymers and to use these strategies in conjunction with the molecular imprinting technique in order to either enhance polymer performance in quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) sensor applications, or as an alternative to conventional solvents of polymerization. In Papers I and II, the use of liquid crystalline media in the synthesis of molecularly imprinted polymers was demonstrated. READ MORE

4. Exploring Selectivity and Hysteresis : Kinetic Studies on a Potato Epoxide Hydrolase
Abstract : The kinetic mechanism of an α/β hydrolase fold epoxide hydrolase from potato, StEH1, has been studied with the aims of explaining the underlying causes for enantio- and regioselectivity, both being important for product purity. Further effort has been laid upon understanding the causes of a hysteretic behavior discovered in the measurements leading to Paper I. READ MORE

5. On the Volume Changes during the Solidification of Cast Irons and Peritectic Steels
Abstract : This thesis work deals with the volume changes during the solidification of cast irons and peritectic steels. The volume changes in casting metals are related to the expansion and/or contraction of the molten metal during solidification. Often, different types of shrinkage, namely macro- and micro-shrinkage, affect the casting quality. READ MORE
