  2. 1. Effect of solvents during material treatment applications : tuning hydrophilicity of silicone rubber and drug loading in mesoporous silica

    Author : Anna Hillerström; Jan van Stam; Lennart Piculell; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Solvents; liquid carbon dioxide; Interpenetrating Polymer Network IPN ; silicone rubber; hydrophilic; phase domains; mesoporous silica; ibuprofen; adsorption isotherms; release; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Choosing the right solvent is critical for many industrial applications. A useful property for selection of solvents is their solubility parameters. This concept of solubility parameters is central to this thesis and has been used in two different case studies of material treatment applications. READ MORE

  4. 2. Effects of Corona and Ozone Exposure on Properties of Polymeric Materials for High Voltage Outdoor Applications
