  1. 1. Thiol-ene and Thiol-ene-epoxy Based Polymers for Biomedical Microdevices

    Author : Alexander Vastesson; Tommy Haraldsson; Wouter van der Wijngaart; Christopher N. Bowman; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; biomedical microdevices; lab-on-a-chip; off-stoichiometry thiol-ene; OSTE; thiol-ene-epoxy; hybrid polymer networks; reaction injection molding; photostructuring; surface modification; bonding; liquid encapsulation; biocompatibility; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : Within healthcare there is a market pull for biomedical devices that can rapidly perform laboratory processes, such as diagnostic testing, in a hand-held format. For this reason, biomedical devices must become smaller, more sophisticated, and easier to use for a reasonable cost. READ MORE

  2. 2. Novel Thermoplastic Material Concepts for High Voltage Cable Insulation - Engineering Immiscible Blends for a Sustainable Future

    Author : Yingwei Ouyang; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; polypropylene; polymer blends; thermoplastic; copolymer; high-voltage power cable insulation; polyethylene;

    Abstract : To cope with our growing demand for energy in a sustainable way, efficient long-distance power transmission via high voltage direct current (HVDC) cables is crucial – these cables facilitate the integration of renewable energy into our power networks. For reliable and efficient power transmission, underground and undersea cables require robust insulation materials that possess a high level of mechanical integrity, a low direct-current (DC) electrical conductivity and a high thermal conductivity at the elevated temperatures experienced during cable operation.

  3. 3. Mechanical Recycling of Engineering Thermoplastics using Alloying Techniques

    Author : Xiaodong Liu; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; sandwich injection moulding; recycling; compatibilizer; in-situ compatibilization; engineering thermoplastics; J-integral; toughness; impact modifier;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis is to indicate routes by which recycled engineering thermoplastics (ETP) can be upgraded using alloying techniques. Recycled ETP have often been subjected to long-term service-induced degradation, so that the residual properties of recycled ETP need to be improved. READ MORE
