2. Microcalorimetry and Infrared Spectroscopy : Thermal processes related to solid waste, ageing rubber, phase change materials, and biomass gasification
Abstract : Microcalorimetry (MC) is a unique technique for an online measurement of heat production. It can be applied to solids, liquids, or gases. MC can be used to measure the heat involved in either exothermic or endothermic processes. READ MORE

3. Sorption Microcalorimetry: Method Development and Applications
Abstract : A double twin isothermal microcalorimeter has been designed and its performance has been tested experimentally. The calorimeter makes it possible to continuously and isothermally scan a solid sample in a broad range of relative vapor pressures at near-equilibrium conditions. READ MORE

4. Retrogradation Properties of Starch
Abstract : The main purpose of this thesis was to examine various factors influencing starch retrogradation. The reassociation events of starch, which are closely linked to the staling of bakery products, were mainly studied by thermal analysis. Some aspects of starch gelatinization are also included.

5. Biophysical Studies of Apolipoprotein A-IM and a Partitioning study
Abstract : The major part of this thesis deals with the similarities and differences in some biophysical properties of apolipoprotein A-I (apo A-I) and the molecular variant apolipoprotein A-IMilano (apo A-IM), and the influence on lipid binding. A model compound partitioning study has also been performed. READ MORE
