  1. 1. Strength Properties of Paper produced from Softwood Kraft Pulp : Pulp Mixture, Reinforcement and Sheet Stratification

    Author : Hanna Karlsson; Luciano Beghello; Lars Nilsson; Lennart Stolpe; Öyvind Gregersen; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; paper strength; tensile strength; tearing resistance; folding endurance; fracture toughness; handsheet former; stratify; multilayer; multiply; reinforcement; refining; beating; abaca; glass fibre; polyester; lyocell; softwood; bond strength; Cellulose and paper engineering; Cellulosa- och pappersteknik; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : For paper producers, an understanding of the development of strength properties in the paper is of uttermost importance. Strong papers are important operators both in the traditional paper industry as well as in new fields of application, such as fibre-based packaging, furniture and light-weight building material.

  2. 2. Bio-based Composites from Soybean Oil Thermosets and Natural Fibers

    Author : Kayode Adekunle; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; bio-based thermoset resins; natural fibres; hybrid composites; renewable resources; mechanical analysis; compression molding; lyocell fiber; Energi och material; Resursåtervinning; Resource Recovery;

    Abstract : In order to reduce over-dependency on fossil fuels and to create an environment that is free of non-degradable plastics, and most importantly to reduce greenhouse gas emission, bio-based products are being developed from renewable resources through intense research to substitute conventional petrochemical-based plastics with renewable alternatives and to replace synthetic fibers with natural fibers. Many authors have done quite a lot of work on synthesizing polymers from renewable origin. READ MORE

  3. 3. Development of thermoplastic biocomposites based on aligned hybrid yarns for fast composite manufacturing

    Author : Behnaz Baghaei; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Hybrid yarns; Mechanical properties; Porosity; Weaving; Alkali treatment; Compression moulding; Resursåtervinning; Resource Recovery;

    Abstract : The interest in natural fibres as reinforcement for composite materials has been steadily increasing due to their attractive mechanical properties and the possibility of making more eco-friendly materials. Currently, various alternatives are being introduced for commercial applications, as fibres such as hemp, jute and flax exhibit properties, which make them appropriate for structural composite components.

  4. 4. Catalytic valorization of lignocellulose : Direct and sidestream upgrading approaches

    Author : Davide Di Francesco; Joseph Samec; Orlando Rojas; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Lignin; biomass; catalytic fractionation; dearomatization; heterogeneous catalysis; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Abstract : This work aims to explore different approaches for the valorization of lignocellulosic biomass. In this regard, two different strategies are presented: the catalytic upgrading of lignocellulose derivatives from industrial streams, such as pyrolytic oil and kraft lignin, and the direct catalytic fractionation of woody biomass.

  5. 5. Properties and performance of regenerated cellulose thermoset biocomposites

    Author : Sunil Kumar Ramamoorthy; Jyrki Vuorinen; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; regenerated cellulose fibres; surface modification; alkali; silane; mechanical analysis; biocomposites; renewable resources; Resursåtervinning; Resource Recovery;

    Abstract : Biocomposites have been developed to address the sustainability issues of nonrenewableresource based materials. These composites are often produced by reinforcing natural fibres in petroleum based thermoset resins or thermoplastic polymers. READ MORE
