    Abstract : This thesis presents novel methods and approaches for designing, preparing/fabricating, and characterizing wood-based nanomaterials. It investigates how modifications in structure, process variables, and composition can enhance functional properties. READ MORE

  2. 22. Melt-processing and properties of thermoplastic composites based on ethylene-acrylic acid copolymer reinforced with wood nanocellulose

    Author : Abhijit Venkatesh; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Pulp fibers; Melt rheology; Composite; Injection moulding; Cellulose; Cellulose nanofibers; Cellulose nanocrystals; Extrusion; Mechanical properties;

    Abstract : Composites reinforced with cellulose nanofibers (CNF), both modified and unmodified cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) and pulp fibers have been prepared through small-scale and large-scale methods. The composites were produced by water-assisted dispersion mixing, drying and compression moulding on the laboratory scale and by extrusion and injection moulding for the large-scale production.

  3. 23. Sensing capability of nanomodified Portland cement composites

    Author : Thanyarat Buasiri; Andrzej Cwirzen; Karin Habermehl-Cwirzen; Jan Olek; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Sensing cementitious composites; nanomodified Portland cement; Carbon nanofibers; CNF; piezoresistive materials; sensor; cement-based sensor; self-monitoring; sensing capability; Byggmaterial; Building Materials;

    Abstract : Sensing cement-based composites refer to composites that have sensing functionality that can measure several physical and chemical parameters. Sensing cement-based composites are fabricated by incorporating some functional fillers, such as conductive fibers (CFs), carbon nanofibers (CNFs), carbon nanotubes (CNTs), and graphene, into conventional concrete.

  4. 24. Wood-Based Nanocellulose In Lithium Ion Batteries and Electrochemical Coatings

    Author : Hyeyun Kim; Ann M. Cornell; Davide Beneventi; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cellulose nanofibers; lithium ion battery; separator; electro-precipitation; hydrogel; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : Lithium ion batteries contain diverse functional polymeric materials, e.g. binders and separators. Naturally self-assembled wood cellulose can be disintegrated to nanosized particles with a diversity of morphology by top-down processes, adjusting the manufacturing parameters. READ MORE

  5. 25. Low-Cost, Environmentally Friendly Electric Double-Layer Capacitors : Concept, Materials and Production

    Author : Britta Andres; Håkan Olin; Christina Dahlström; Jonas Örtegren; Renyun Zhang; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Electric Double-Layer Capacitor; Graphite; Cellulose Nanofibers; Large-Scale; Mass Balancing; Metal-Free;

    Abstract : Today’s society is currently performing an exit from fossilfuel energy sources. The change to sustainable alternativesrequires inexpensive and environmentally friendly energy storagedevices. However, most current devices contain expensive,rare or toxic materials. These materials must be replaced bylow-cost, abundant, nontoxic components. READ MORE
