6. Alpha-1-microglobulin: Innate defence against pathological oxidation
Abstract : Oxidative stress has been implicated as an important factor in the progression of many diseases. An imbalance in the redox-system may cause oxidation of cells and molecules, which might subsequently lead to tissue damage. READ MORE

7. Oxidation kinetics of nickel particles
Abstract : Nanoparticles have an immense surface to volume ratio. This is a key factor to the new properties of some materials made up of such particles. The oxide layer formed on all materials will have a large influence on the behaviour of these materials. The layer isadvantageous in some cases but causes problems in other. READ MORE

8. Catalysts for Oxygen Production and Utilization : Closing the Oxygen Cycle: From Biomimetic Oxidation to Artificial Photosynthesis
Abstract : This thesis describes the development and study of catalysts for redox reactions, which either utilize oxygen or hydrogen peroxide for the purpose of selectively oxidizing organic substrates, or produce oxygen as the necessary byproduct in the production of hydrogen by artificial photosynthesis.The first chapter gives a general introduction about the use of environmentally friendly oxidants in the field of organic synthesis, and about the field of artificial photosynthesis.

9. Development and Applications of Hypervalent Iodine Compounds : Powerful Arylation and Oxidation Reagents
Abstract : The first part of this thesis describes the efficient synthesis of several hypervalent iodine(III) compounds. Electron-rich diaryliodonium salts have been synthesized in a one-pot procedure, employing mCPBA as the oxidant. Both symmetric and unsymmetric diaryliodonium tosylates can be isolated in high yields. READ MORE

10. Performance of High-temperature Coatings : Oxidation and Interdiffusion
Abstract : The use of aluminiferous coatings profoundly improves the service life of superalloys but leads to the microstructural degradation of superalloys and thus the loss of mechanical properties. To solve this trade-off, two strategies were employed in this research. READ MORE
