  2. 1. Towards compatibilization of cellulose nanofibrils in polymer matrices : Polymer design for mediating the nanofibril–matrix interface

    Author : Rosella Telaretti Leggieri; Eva Malmström; Mats Johansson; Catarina de Carvalho Esteves; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cellulose nanofibril CNF ; copolymer; nanocomposite; coating; reinforcement; interface; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Abstract : Magnifying the nanostructure of wood reveals the features of an extraordinary nanocomposite material. In this nanocomposite, long fibrils of semicrystalline cellulose, with a cross-section in the nanometer range and length up to several micrometers, are embedded in an amorphous matrix made of other polymeric components.

    Abstract : Användningan av engångsförpackningar har ökat kraftigt de senaste åren. Den absolut största delen av dessa förpackningar tillverkars av oljebaserade plaster såsom polyetylen (PE) och polypropylen (PP). Dessa har även en oerhört lång nedbrytningstid, vilket gör det viktigt att finna mer miljövänliga alternativ. READ MORE

  5. 3. SALDI-MS Method Development for Analysis of Pharmaceuticals and Polymer Degradation Products

    Author : Nina Aminlashgari; Minna Hakkarainen; Klas Engvall; Åsa Emmer; KTH; []

    Abstract : Surface assisted laser desorption ionization-mass spectrometry (SALDI-MS) was evaluated as a new tool for analysis of polymer degradation products. A SALDI method was developed enabling rapid analysis of low molecular mass polyesters and their degradation products. READ MORE

  6. 4. 3D-Printing of Fluorinated Polymer-based Materials for Plasmonic Sensing

    Author : Ida Östergren; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; 3D-printing; polymer nanocomposite; hydrogen sensing; plasmonic nanoparticles; Teflon AF; fused deposition modeling;

    Abstract : Hydrogen attracts growing interest as a versatile energy carrier, serving as a fuel for cars, a heat source, or a reagent for chemical synthesis. At the same time, the demand for accurate and selective hydrogen sensors is increasing because of both safety concerns and the need for process monitoring. READ MORE

  7. 5. Functional composite coatings containing conducting polymers

    Author : Shadi Jafarzadeh; Per Martin Claesson; Arjan Mol; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Conducting polymer; Polyaniline; Conductive network; Nanocomposite; Active corrosion protection; Interfacial energy; UV curing; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Organic coatings are widely used to lower the corrosion rate of metallic structures. However, penetration of water, oxygen and corrosive ions through pores present in the coating results in corrosion initiation and propagation once these species reach the metal substrate. READ MORE
