    Abstract : Plastic pollution is one of the most pressing environmental issues in today’s world. Addressing this problem calls for the development of environmentally friendly alternatives that would reduce the amount of persistent plastic waste. READ MORE

  2. 2. Mechanical Properties and Deformation Behaviour of Polymer Materials during Nanosectioning : Characterisation and Modelling

    Author : Fengzhen Sun; Kristofer Gamstedt; Kai Cheng; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Nanosectioning; Fracture toughness; Adiabatic shearing; Shear band; Nanosectioning; Glassy polymer; Nanocomposite;

    Abstract : Research in local fracture processes and micro-machining of polymers and polymer-based composites has attracted increasing attention, in development of composite materials and miniaturisation of polymer components. In this thesis, sectioning (machining) of a glassy polymer and a carbon nanotube based composite at the nanoscale was performed by an instrumented ultramicrotome. READ MORE

  3. 3. The biology and properties of wood for nanocellulose production

    Author : Anne Bünder; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Wood is a renewable and environmentally friendly raw material envisioned for the production of novel materials. In this interdisciplinary thesis project, I investigated genetic factors controlling cellulose biosynthesis, cellulose microfibril dimensions, wood mechanical properties and factors that influence nanocellulose extraction from wood.
