2. Thermal Conductivity of Hygroscopic Foams Based on Cellulose Nanomaterials
Abstract : Biobased super-insulating materials could mitigate climate change by minimizing the use of petroleum-based materials, creating artificial carbon sinks and minimizing the energy needed to maintain pleasant interior conditions. Cellulose nanomaterials (CNM) produced from abundantly available cellulose sources constitute versatile, highly anisotropic raw materials with tunable surface chemistry and high strength. READ MORE

3. Exploring different thermoplastics from lignocellulosic building blocks and monomers
Abstract : The need to replace conventional fossil-based plastics is becoming more imperative. As climate change is more visibly affecting our society, employing non-sustainable resources to produce plastics is aggravating the problem. READ MORE

4. Building Sustainable Batteries : Organic electrodes based on Li- and Na-benzenediacrylate
Abstract : As possible alternatives to the conventional inorganic Li- or Na-ion battery electrode materials, organic compounds have recently drawn considerable attention. However, major challenges such as poor electronic conductivity, solubility in battery electrolyte or fast capacity decay of the resulting electrochemical cells are some of the reasons that hold these compounds back from becoming commercial solutions in the energy system.

5. Enols and Allylic Alcohols as Building Blocks in Synthetic Organic Chemistry : Experimental and Theoretical Studies
Abstract : The present thesis describes computational and experimental studies used to drive the reactivity of allylic and enol substrates towards new transformations. These synthetic methods give access to a number of organic molecules that may serve as important moieties in synthetic organic chemistry. READ MORE
