  1. 1. NMR Self-Diffusion Studies and Stability Studies of Emulsions

    Author : Ingrid Lönnqvist; LTH Ingenjörshögskolan vid Campus Helsingborg; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; coalescence; emulsion stability; size distribution; restricted diffusion; self-diffusion coefficient; self-diffusion PGSE NMR; surfactant; emulsifier; continuous phase; microemulsion; phase diagram; emulsion; multiple emulsion; cream; conductivity; Physics; Fysik; Chemistry; Kemi;

    Abstract : The aim of this study is to characterize emulsion systems by self-diffusion PGSE NMR methods. The specifics of the emulsions studied are all taken from the literature and they are of the W/O or O/W type stabilized with different emulsifiers. READ MORE

  2. 2. Characterizing Chromatography Media : NMR-based Approaches

    Author : Fredrik Elwinger; István Furó; Stéphane Viel; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; chromatography; nuclear magnetic resonance; NMR; self-diffusion; magic-angle spinning; quantitative; distribution coefficient; pore size; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Liquid chromatography is an essential technique in manufacturing biopharmaceuticals where it is used on all scales from analytical applications in R&D to full-scale production. In chromatography the target molecule, typically a protein, is separated and purified from other components and contaminants. READ MORE

  3. 3. Water diffusion and free volume in hydrophilic polymers

    Author : Charlotte Trotzig; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physical chemistry; free volume; self-diffusion; degree of crystallinity; glass transition temperature; tensile storage modulus; surface tension; isotherm; HPMC; PEO; water; triacetin; clay; Macromolecular chemistry; dynamic mechanical analysis; Fysikalisk kemi; differential scanning calorimetry; nuclear magnetic resonance; positron annihilation; Makromolekylär kemi;

    Abstract : During moisture uptake in polymers, the diffusion of the water molecules is believed to occur via unoccupied voids. These voids are called free volume cavities and their sizes are continuously altered when the moisture content in the polymer is enhanced. READ MORE

  4. 4. Physico-Chemical Properties of Plant Polysaccharides Investigated with NMR Techniques

    Author : Åsa Östlund; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NMR diffusometry; Dissolution of cellulose; Chemical shift imaging; Fiber hornification; Xylan; Molecular weight; Pore size distribution; Cryoporometry; Cellulose solution; 19F NMR; Gelation of cellulose; Self-diffusion; Pulsed field gradient NMR; TBAF DMSO; 1H NMR;

    Abstract : In the lead of developing new biomaterials from plant sources it is of importance to be able to control and vary the properties, such as flexibility, strength, and hygroscopicity of the final material. These properties are highly directed by the interactions between constituents on a molecular level. READ MORE

  5. 5. Dispersing Carbon Nanotubes: Towards Molecular Understanding

    Author : Ricardo M. Ferreira Fernandes; Istvan Furo; Eduardo Marques; Philippe Poulin; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; carbon nanotubes; dispersion; surfactants; polymers; adsorption; liquid crystals; nuclear magnetic resonance; self-diffusion; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) exhibit unique and fascinating intrinsic electrical, optical, thermal or mechanical properties that lead to a plethora of potential applications in composite materials, electronics, energy storage, medicine, among others. However, the manipulation of nanotubes is not trivial and there are significant difficulties to overcome before achieving their full potential in applications. READ MORE
