  2. 21. Initial Oxidation of β-NiAl(Pt) Coatings and Model Alloys

    Author : Henrik Svensson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; FIB-SEM; SEM; #946; TEM; Diffusion Coatings; Metal-Oxide Interface; High Temperature Oxidation; Cavities; Platinum; -NiAl;

    Abstract : The aim of this work was to investigate the oxidation properties of NiAl coatings and model materials during high temperature oxidation. One of the important issues was to elucidate the beneficial role of Pt additions. A better understanding of the involved processes provides a key for the further improvement of the coatings performance. READ MORE

  4. 22. Studies on Lean NOx Reduction with Ammonia. Catalysts and Sensors

    Author : Mikaela Wallin; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; catalysis; Pt SiO2; NOx reduction; gas sensor; DFT; SCR; H-ZSM-5; in situ FTIR; LCAO; DRIFT; high throughput screening; transient ammonia supply; ammonia; microemulsion; perovskite;

    Abstract : Selective catalytic reduction of NOx with ammonia, NH3-SCR, is a promising technique to reduce NOx under lean conditions, e.g. in diesel engine exhausts. The main objective of this thesis was to gain further understanding of key parameters affecting the performance of catalysts and sensors for NH3-SCR. READ MORE

  5. 23. P-T evolotion and High-temperature deformation of Precambrian eclogite, Sveconorwegian orogen

    Author : Lorraine Tual; Berggrundsgeologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Eclogite; Precambrian; P–T path; Basal shear zone; Sveconorwegian orogen; Deformation; thermometry;

    Abstract : The 1.1-0.9 Ga Sveconorwegian orogen is one of several Grenvillian-aged orogenic belts that mark the amalgamation of supercontinent Rodinia. The highest-pressure rocks in the Sveconorwegian orogen are eclogites in the Eastern Segment (SW Sweden). READ MORE

  6. 24. Foreign molecules in biomembranes : Molecular effects on intact stratum corneum and model lipid systems

    Author : Quoc Dat Pham; Fysikalisk kemi; []
    Keywords : stratum corneum; lipid; keratin filament; protein; DMPC; penetration enhancer; osmolyte; solvent; monoterpene; fatty acid; hydration; molecular mobility; fluidity; permeability; PT ssNMR; diffusion cell;

    Abstract : This thesis mainly explores how the molecular mobility of lipid and protein components in the outermost layer of the skin, the stratum corneum (SC), varies with different conditions and upon adding foreign compounds. These studies require methods that makes it possible to detect and characterize the minor amount of fluid components in the highly ordered solid SC sample with resolved molecular information.

  7. 25. Electrochemical evaluation of new materials in polymer electrolyte fuel cells

    Author : Björn Eriksson; Carina Lagergren; Göran Lindbergh; Rakel Lindström; Piotr Zelenay; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Fuel cell; Pt-REM; Alloy catalyst; Multi walled carbon nanotubes; Bipolar plates; Water transport; Bränslecell; Pt-REM; Legerad katalysator; Flerväggade kolnanorör; Bipolära plattor; Vattentransport; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : Polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEFC) convert the chemical energy in hydrogen to electrical energy and heat, with the only exhaust being water. Fuel cells are considered key in achieving a sustainable energy sector. The main obstacles to wide scale commercialization are cost and durability. READ MORE
