    Abstract : Nanocomposites of polyethylene and metal oxide nanoparticles have shown to be a feasible approachto the next generation of insulation in high voltage direct current cables. In order to reach an operationvoltage of 1 MV new insulation materials with reduced conductivity and increased breakdown strengthas compared to modern low-density polyethylene (LDPE) is needed.

  2. 2. Combining Nanoplasmonics and Nanofluidics for Single Particle Catalysis

    Author : David Albinsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; heterogeneous catalysis; CO oxidation; plasmonic sensing; dark field scattering spectroscopy; nanocatalyst; LSPR; single particle catalysis; nanofluidics; nanoreactor; Cu oxidation;

    Abstract : Nanoparticles are, due to their large exposed surface area, widely used in the field of heterogeneous catalysis where they accelerate and steer chemical reactions. Although catalysis has been known about for centuries, the scrutiny of catalysts under realistic application conditions is still a major challenge. READ MORE

  3. 3. Angle dependent light scattering of functional nanoparticle composites

    Author : JunXin Wang; Gunnar Niklasson; Anand Srinivason; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; light scattering; nano particle; absorption; radiative transfer; Solid State Physics; Fasta tillståndets fysik;

    Abstract : Varies functional nanoparticles play crucial roles in energy- and optical- related applications. The incorporation of functional nanoparticles into non-absorbing polymers to form optical absorption and scattering thin films have attracted considerable interest due to a successful selection of particles and matrices, synergistic effects of separation and fixation of particles, and controllable layer thicknesses and structures.
