    Abstract : AbstractCarbon nanotubes (CNTs) have extraordinary mechanical and electrical properties. Together with their small dimensions and low density, they are attractive candidates for building blocks in future nanoelectromechanical systems and for many other applications. READ MORE

  2. 2. High pressure vulcanization : crosslinking of diene rubbers without vulcanization agents

    Author : Martin Bellander; KTH; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : High pressure vulcanization (HPV) is defined in this thesisas crosslinking of rubber materialsat elevated pressure andtemperature, without the use of any vulcanization agents. Thisis atotally new vulcanization technique, not used in theindustry today. READ MORE

  3. 3. Thermally Conductive High-Density Polyethylene Composites for Ground Heat Exchangers

    Author : Adib Kalantar Mehrjerdi; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; High-density polyethylene; talc; thermal conductivity; thermal diffusivity; thermal stability; melt rheology; oxidation induction time; α relaxation; strain hardening;

    Abstract : Today, the energy used for the heating and cooling of offices, shopping centres, schools, residential areas, andother buildings is as large as 50% of the total energy consumption in the world. The climate change, globalwarming, and environmental issues have forced high requirements for energy efficiency and clean energyproduction in buildings. READ MORE

  4. 4. Heteroatom-doped porous carbon materials derived from poly(ionic liquid)s and their composites for battery and catalytic applications

    Author : Sadaf Saeedi Garakani; Jiayin Yuan; Diego Cazorla-Amorós; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Heteroatom doped carbon; Porous carbon membrane; Poly ionic liquid -derived carbon; Wood-derived carbon; Catalytic activity; Peroxidase-like activity; lithium sulfur battery; materialkemi; Materials Chemistry;

    Abstract : In the past decade, there has been significant interest in heteroatom-doped porous carbons, driven by the distinctive and adjustable physical and chemical properties that they exhibit across scales, from the atomic to the macroscopic level. Particularly, attributes such as conductivity, electron density, high specific surface area, hierarchical pore structure, and oxidation resistance offer a wide range of characteristics for diverse applications.

  5. 5. Plant-soil-herbivore interactions in a high Arctic wetland - Feedbacks to the carbon cycle

    Author : Julie Maria Falk; Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Arctic wetlands; carbon balance; herbivory; increased grazing pressure; methane fluxes; muskox exclusion; substrate avalibility; vegetation composition and density;

    Abstract : Arctic ecosystems hold massive amounts of the global carbon in their soils and are of great importance for the global terrestrial exchange of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere. The arctic region has in general been acting as a C sink for the past 10000 years, however with climate change the C balance in some areas is shifting towards becoming a C source. READ MORE
