  2. 6. Functional Dendritic Materials using Click Chemistry : Synthesis, Characterizations and Applications

    Author : Per Antoni; Anders Hult; Michael Malkoch; Stefan Hecht; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Dendrimer; Dendron; Dendritic; Hyperbranched; Click; Chemistry; CuAAc; One-Pot; Multi-functional; Simultaneous; Honeycomb; Isoporous; MALDI; NMR; GPC; TGA; DSC; Polymer chemistry; Polymerkemi;

    Abstract : Förfrågan efter nya och mer avancerade applikationer är en pågående process vilket leder till en konstant utveckling av nya material. För att förstå relationen mellan en applikations egenskaper och dess sammansättning krävs full förståelse och kontroll över materialets uppbyggnad. READ MORE

  4. 7. Expanded knowledge on silk assembly for development of bioactive silk coatings

    Author : Linnea Nilebäck; My Hedhammar; Renko de Vries; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Recombinant spider silk; Self-assembly; Biomaterial; Implant coating; Functionalization; Multi-functional; Bioactive; Cell culture scaffold; Antibacterial; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

    Abstract : Silk is a fascinating natural material made from proteins that self-assemble through structural rearrangements into one of the toughest materials known. As silk is protein-based, durable and elastic, it has many features that makes it suitable as a scaffold material for tissue engineering. READ MORE

  5. 8. Life cycle assessment in the development of forest products : Contributions to improved methods and practices

    Author : Gustav Sandin; Magdalena Svanström; Greg Peters; Mats Westin; Annica Pilgård; Michael Narodoslawsky; RISE; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; R D; LCA; Life cycle assessment; wood; forest product; forestry; impact assessment; scenario modelling; end-of-life modelling; allocation; multi-functional; planetary boundaries; life cycle inventory; life cycle impact assessment; environmental assessment;

    Abstract : The prospect of reducing environmental impacts is a key driver for the research and development (R&D) of new forest products. Life cycle assessment (LCA) is often used for assessing the environmental impact of such products, e.g. for the purpose of guiding R&D. READ MORE

  6. 9. Extracellular matrix mimetic multi-functional scaffolds for tissue engineering and biomedical applications

    Author : Ranjithkumar Ravichandran; Jaywant Phopase; Anthony Turner; Ann-Christine Albertsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Regeneration of functional tissues or complex organs via the combination of viable cells, biomimetic scaffolds, morphogenic factors, and external biophysical cues are the principle aims of Tissue Engineering (TE). TE relies on the use of artificial 3D scaffolds that can mimic the microenvironment of native tissue to harness the regenerative potential of cells. READ MORE

  7. 10. Traps and transformations : Exploring the potential of water system innovations in dryland sub-Saharan Africa

    Author : Elin Enfors; Line Gordon; Christian Valentin; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : smallholder farming; water system innovations; agricultural droughts; multi-functional landscapes; development trajectories; uncertainty; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; naturresurshushållning; Natural Resources Management;

    Abstract : In semi-arid and dry sub-humid sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), high poverty levels and a heavy reliance on small-scale rainfed agriculture make rural livelihoods difficult. Upgrading current farming systems, in a way that safeguards productivity beyond field-scale, is urgent. READ MORE
