  1. 1. Theoretical and experimental studies of surface and interfacial phenomena involving steel surfaces

    Author : Weimin Cao; Seshadri Seetharaman; Oleg Ostrovski; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Sulfur; Oxygen; Adsorption; Iron surface; ab initio calculations; Adsorption energy; Work function; Difference charge density; Magnetic properties; Thermodynamic stability; Average velocity; Monte Carlo simulation; X-ray sessile drop method; Mass transfer; Interfacial velocity; Metallurgical process engineering; Metallurgisk processteknik;

    Abstract : The present work was initiated to investigate the surface- and interfacial phenomena for iron and slag/iron systems. The aim was to understand the mechanism of the effect of surface active elements on surface and interfacial properties. READ MORE

  2. 2. Interfacial Properties of Lipid Liquid Crystalline Nanoparticles

    Author : Pauline Vandoolaeghe; Fysikalisk kemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; interaction; adsorption; surface; peptide; bilayer; cubic phase; monoolein; cubosome; lipid; liquid crystalline nanoparticles; ellipsometry; neutron reflectivity; QCM-D; SAXD;

    Abstract : Lipid liquid crystalline nanoparticles are studied for their potential as biocompatible carriers for pharmaceutical, food and cosmetic applications. Their potential as delivery vehicles is due to their nanometer size, their controllable structure and physical properties and their large carrying capacity of a wide range of molecules. READ MORE

  3. 3. Adsorption Properties of Triblock Copolymers at Solid Surfaces

    Author : Krister Eskilsson; Fysikalisk kemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fysikalisk kemi; Physical chemistry; Ellipsomery; Surface force; Adsorption; Triblock Copolymer;

    Abstract : The interfacial behaviour of nonionic triblock copolymers of the type poly(ethylene oxide-tetrahydrofurane-ethylene oxide) has been systematically examined at different types of surfaces. It is shown how the chemical nature of the substrate greatly influences the adsorption behaviour of block copolymers. READ MORE

  4. 4. Interfacial behaviour of surfactants and enzymes: studies at model surfaces

    Author : Olaspers Jonny Eriksson; Fysikalisk kemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Surface and boundary layery chemistry; gränsskikt; enzymatic degradation; cellulase; model film; cellulose; QCM; ellipsometry; surfactant; three-phase contact line; adsorption; wetting; Ytkemi;

    Abstract : This thesis presents results from experimental studies of the interfacial behaviour of surfactants and enzymes at model surfaces. The main technique used throughout the work was ellipsometry. READ MORE

  5. 5. Adsorption of surface active elements on the iron (100) surface : A study based on ab initio calculations

    Author : Weimin Cao; Seshadri Seetharaman; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; sulfur; oxygen; surface adsorption; iron surface; ab initio calculations; adsorption energy; work function; difference charge density; thermodynamic stability; average velocity; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : In the present work, the structural, electronic properties, thermodynamic stability and adatom surface movements of oxygen and sulfur adsorption on the Fe surface were studied based on the ab initio method. Firstly, the oxygen adsorbed on the iron (100) surface is investigated at the three adsorption sites top, bridge and hollow sites, respectively. READ MORE
