    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; nanocellulose; nanofibril; nanofiber; CNF; nanoplatelet; nanostructure; tactoid; montmorillonite; MTM; foam; aerogel; porosity; PVA; poly vinyl alcohol ; epoxy; moisture; biocomposite; biomaterial; biobased; flame; cone calorimetry; gas barrier; coating; film.; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Abstract : Materials based on wood can offer sustainable alternatives to fossil-based plastics and composites, and show interesting mechanical properties. However, the issue of their flammability is generally unresolved. In this thesis, eco-friendly, fire retardant clay-cellulose nanofibril materials are investigated. READ MORE

  4. 2. Swelling and Microstructure of Nanoplatelet Systems

    Author : Axel Thuresson; Beräkningskemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Nanoplatelets; Model clay system; Coarse grained models; Statistical mechanics; MC simulations; MD simulations; SAXS; Cryo-TEM; Laponite; Montmorillonite; Swelling; Tactoid;

    Abstract : Many clay minerals consist of charged nanoplatelets that swell in an aqueous solution. The swelling and the microstructure depend on the type of clay mineral but are also dependent on, for example, the ionic composition and the temperature of the solution. READ MORE

  5. 3. Synchrotron X-ray Scattering and Monte Carlo Simulations of Structure and Forces in Silicate Nanoplatelet Dispersions

    Author : Mo Segad; Beräkningskemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAXS; MC simulations; Swelling; Tactoids; EXAFS; DLS; Cryo-TEM; Nanoplatelets; MX80; Na Ca montmorillonite.;

    Abstract : Clays are the world’s most widely used natural material, however, little is known regarding the microstructure as well as the forces involved in clay-water interactions, and their influence on the swelling properties. The utilization of clay platelets is nowadays a key in a number of biological and industrial applications e.g. READ MORE

  6. 4. Manufacturing and Characterization of Filled Polymeric Systems

    Author : Henrik Oxfall; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; PS; hybrid composites; EBA; computer simulations; graphene; rheology; mould filling; graphite nanoplatelets; powder injection moulding; electrical conductivity; elongational flow; thermal properties; jetting;

    Abstract : The physical properties are changed if fillers are added to a polymeric material. In this work a highly filled model system for power injection moulding (PIM) and graphite nanoplatelet (GNP) based nanocomposites have been manufactured and characterized. READ MORE
