  1. 1. Adsorption of polyhydroxyl based surfactants

    Author : Maria Matsson; Per Claesson; Robert Meszaros; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physical chemistry; surface chemistry; adsorption; surfactant; nonionic; alkyl glucoside APG ; ellipsometry; kinetics; alkyl amine oxide DDAO ; alkyl ammonium bromide DTAB ; solid liquid interface; synergism; coadsorption.;

    Abstract : Adsorption on solid surfaces from solution is a fundamental property of a surfactant. It might even be the most important aspect of surfactant behavior, since it influences many applications, such as cleaning, detergency, dispersion, separation, flotation, and lubrication. READ MORE

  2. 2. Atom Probe Tomography of Hydrogen and of Grain Boundaries in Corroded Zircaloy-2

    Author : Gustav Sundell; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; corrosion; Field adsorption.; Hydrogen pick-up; Hydrogen analysis; Zirconium alloys; Atom probe tomography;

    Abstract : Due to their low thermal neutron capture cross-section, zirconium alloys are widely used in the nuclear industry for fuel cladding and structural components. The lifetime of the fuel assemblies in the reactors are largely dictated by the ability of the fuel cladding to withstand corrosion and mechanical damage. READ MORE

  3. 3. Adsorption of nonionic amphiphiles to solid surfaces

    Author : Johanna Brinck; Fysikalisk kemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physical chemistry; silica; solubilisation; self assembly; ellipsometry; mixed micelles; surfactant; kinetics; Adsorption; desorption; Fysikalisk kemi;

    Abstract : In this study, the adsorption of nonionic amphiphiles from aqueous solutions to solid, planar surfaces is investigated using null ellipsometry. This technique allows independent measurements of the amounts adsorbed at the surface and of the mean optical thickness of the adsorbed layer. READ MORE

  4. 4. Molecular overlayers on homogeneous and heterogeneous metal surfaces studied by core-level photoemission

    Author : Maria Smedh; Fysiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; photoelectron spectroscopy; core-level photoemission; electron energy loss spectroscopy; single crystal surfaces; metal surfaces; heterogeneous surfaces; adsorption; adsorbed molecules; hydrocarbons; molecular vibrations; carbon monoxide; adsorption sites; adsorption energy; diffusion; dissociation; Physics; Fysik; Fysicumarkivet A:2001:Smedh;

    Abstract : The main topic of this thesis is the investigation of small molecules adsorbed on metal surfaces by means of core-level photoemission spectroscopy. The thesis consists of three parts; The first group of papers concerns the effects of internal molecular vibrations on the core-level photoemission spectra. READ MORE

  5. 5. Adsorption Properties of Triblock Copolymers at Solid Surfaces

    Author : Krister Eskilsson; Fysikalisk kemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fysikalisk kemi; Physical chemistry; Ellipsomery; Surface force; Adsorption; Triblock Copolymer;

    Abstract : The interfacial behaviour of nonionic triblock copolymers of the type poly(ethylene oxide-tetrahydrofurane-ethylene oxide) has been systematically examined at different types of surfaces. It is shown how the chemical nature of the substrate greatly influences the adsorption behaviour of block copolymers. READ MORE
