2. 1. Bonding Ability Distribution of Fibers in Mechanical Pulp Furnishes

   Author : Sofia Reyier; Per Engstrand; Hans Höglund; Olof Ferritsius; Hans Ersson; Rita Ferritsius; Philip Reme; Mittuniversitetet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Fiber; mechanical pulp; bonding ability; fiber characterization; Bonding Indicator; BIN; acoustic emission; hydrocyclone; Fiberlab; collapse resistance; fibrillation; Fiber; mekanisk massa; bindningsförmåga; fiber karakterisering; Bindnings Indikator; BIN; akustisk emission; hydrocyklon; Fiberlab; kollaps resistans; fibrillering; Cellulose and paper engineering; Cellulosa- och pappersteknik;

   Abstract : This thesis presents a method of measuring the distribution of fiber bonding ability in mechanical pulp furnishes. The method is intended for industrial use, where today only average values are used to describe fiber bonding ability, despite the differences in morphology of the fibers entering the mill.

4. 2. From bio-based residues to nanofibers using mechanical fibrillation for functional biomaterials

   Author : Linn Berglund; Kristiina Oksman; Monika Österberg; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Nanofibers; Industrial residues; Ultrafine grinding; Energy-efficiency; Network formation; Hydrogel; Trä och bionanokompositer; Wood and Bionanocomposites;

   Abstract : Bio-based resource utilization in different forms has been driven by societal, industrial and academic research interests towards the development of “green”, sustainable materials from renewable sources. Within this context, exploiting biomass from different industrial residues is further advantageous from an environmental and economic point of view, leading to minimization of residues by means of waste treatment and to the development of high-addedvalue- products.

5. 3. Chemical Modification of Nanostructured Wood for Functional Biocomposites

   Author : Shennan Wang; Qi Zhou; Gustav Nyström; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wood; nanostructured materials; nanocellulose; delignification; oxidation; crosslinking; amination; MOFs; transparent film; hydrogel; aerogel; biocomposites; mechanical properties; thermochromic materials; CO2 capture; protein immobilization.; Biotechnology; Bioteknologi;

   Abstract : Recently emerged top-down processing concept has provided new insights into the chemical modification of wood at the nanoscale. Nanostructured wood with naturally aligned cellulose microfibrils, cell wall nanoporosity, and precisely tuned chemical composition has opened up numerous possibilities for advanced design of functional materials.

6. 4. Beyond averages – some aspects of how to describe a heterogeneous material, mechanical pulp, on particle level

   Author : Olof Ferritsius; Birgitta A. Engberg; Per Engstrand; Mats Rundlöf; Øyvind Weiby Gregersen; Mittuniversitetet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Visualisation; Uniformity; Distributions; Independent common factors; Weighted fibre length; Fibre bonding; Fibrillation; Curl; Wall thickness; Particle analyser characterisation; Raw material; CTMP; Process configuration; Sampling accuracy;

   Abstract : For a more profound understanding of how a process works, it is essential to have a relevant description of the material being processed. With this description, it will be easier to evaluate and control processes to produce more uniform products with the right properties. READ MORE

7. 5. Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases for green production of cellulose nanomaterials

   Author : Salla Koskela; Qi Zhou; Markus Linder; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cellulose; enzyme; CNC; CNF; LPMO; nanocellulose; wood; Biotechnology; Bioteknologi;

   Abstract : Cellulose is the main structural polymer in wood, and its potential in the form of nanomaterial building blocks, nanocelluloses, has now been recognized. Nanocelluloses, including cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) and cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs), have become increasingly important in development of modern sustainable materials. READ MORE
