1. Colour-changing textile coatings containing multi-layered mica pigments : an experimental study
Abstract : This study investigates the possibility of producing angle-dependent colour-changing textiles with thickened polyurethane (PU)-based aqueous dispersion containing multi-layered mica pigments using a direct coating method. Colour changing textile coatings with the latest generation of layered mica pigment (EP) have a promising future for functional purposes such as authentication and aesthetic eye-catching applications.

2. The cyanobacterial pigments scytonemin and nostodione A - Synthesis, photophysicochemical behavior and biological studies
Abstract : The natural UV-screener scytonemin is found in a plethora of cyanobacterial species. Its UV-protective ability allows the bacteria to thrive in inhospitable locations exposed to intense solar radiation. Scytonemin has a dimeric structure consisting of two 1-1' linked 3-(4-hydroxybenzylidene)cyclopenta[b]indole-2-one moieties. READ MORE

3. Functional Textile Coatings Containing Flake-shaped Fillers : investigations on selected optical and electrical properties
Abstract : This thesis investigates the manufacturing and characterisation of functionalised textile coatings containing different types of flake-shaped fillers with angle-dependent colour-changing and electrically conductive properties, respectively. Common benefits of these types of flakes are their high aspect ratio, which offers low filler loading with high functional performance. READ MORE

5. Recovery and reuse of TiO2 and other pigments from paint waste
Abstract : Titanium dioxide (TiO2) has numerous applications in our society, most notably as a white pigment in products such as paint, paper and plastic. Since 2010 there has been a sharp increase in the demand for and price of TiO2. As a result new and innovative ways of TiO2 production are needed. READ MORE
