2. 1. On the Size and Shape of Polymers and Polymer Complexes : A Computational and Light Scattering Study

   Author : Tomas Edvinsson; Terence Cosgrove; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; Monte Carlo simulations; grafted polymers; shape description; folding complexity; clustering; percolation algorithm; light scattering; end-capped polymers; inclusion complexes; Fysik; Physics; Fysik; Physical Chemistry; Fysikalisk kemi;

   Abstract : Detailed characterization of size and shape of polymers, and development of methods to elucidate the mechanisms behind shape transitions are central issues in this thesis. In particular we characterize grafted polymer chains under confinement in terms of the chain entanglement complexity and mean molecular size. READ MORE

4. 2. Synthesis and Properties of Branched Semi-Crystalline Thermoset Resins

   Author : Hans Claesson; KTH; []
   Keywords : star-branched; semi-crystalline; comb-branched; ring-opening polymerization; poly ƒÕ-caprolactone ; dendritic; thermoset; low temperature curing; powder coating; UV-curing; poly 5; 5-dimethyl-1; 3-dioxane-2-one ; size exclusion chromatography; rheology;

   Abstract : This thesis describes the synthesis and characterization ofbranched semi-crystalline polymers. Included in this work isthe SEC characterization of a series of dendrimers. Thebranched semi-crystalline polymers were synthesized in order toinvestigate the concept of their use as powder coatings resins. READ MORE
