  2. 1. Heterogeneous Film-Forming Latexes : Preparation - Morphology - Mechanical Properties

    Author : Ola Karlsson; Fysikalisk kemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; core-shell; particle morphology; heterogeneous latexes; particle size; crosslinking; hydrophilicity; poly isoprene-co-styrene-co-methacrylic acid ; monomer partitioning; internal particle viscosity; transmission electron microscopy TEM ; calorimetric reactor; two-stage; seeded emulsion polymerization; film morphology; mechanical properties; paper coating.; Polymer technology; biopolymers; Polymerteknik;

    Abstract : This thesis describes the preparation of heterogeneous latexes, which may serve as binders in coating applications, and the characterization of these. The latexes were prepared in two-stage seeded emulsion polymerization. READ MORE

  4. 2. Shell repair as a response to attempted predation in some Palaeozoic and younger gastropods

    Author : Anna Lindström; John S. Peel; Jan Ove R. Ebbestad; Euan N. K. Clarkson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Earth sciences; Gastropoda; predation; shell morphology; shell repair; Palaeozoic; Geovetenskap; Earth sciences; Geovetenskap;

    Abstract : Traces of unsuccessful predatory attacks can be found in the hard parts of shell-bearing organisms as repaired shell injuries and are often preserved in the fossil record. These repaired shell injuries can help to deduce the relationship between predator and prey in the past. READ MORE

  5. 3. Functional Morphology of Gastropods and Bivalves

    Author : Jenny Sälgeback; Lars Holmer; John S. Peel; Jan-Ove Ebbestad; Enrico Savazzi; Anders Warén; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Earth sciences; Gastropoda; Bivalvia; functional morphology; constructional morphology; Geovetenskap;

    Abstract : Functional morphology analyzes the relationships between form and function in organisms. However, a comprehensive analysis of any organic structure requires an integrated approach to morphology. For this purpose constructional morphology was developed, where function, phylogeny and construction together explain form. READ MORE

  6. 4. Structure, Morphology, and Catalytic Properties of CuOx/CeO2 Model Catalysts

    Author : Björn Skårman; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Synchrotron radiation; High-energy Diffraction; X-ray Absorption Fine Structure Spectroscopy.; Chemical technology and engineering; Kemiteknik och kemisk teknologi; Chemistry; Kemi; Material technology; Materiallära; materialteknik; X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy; Atomic force microscopy; Gatan Image Filter GIF ; Energy-filtered TEM; High-resolution electron microscopy; Inert gas condensation IGC ; rf Magnetron sputtering; Thermal activation; Batch reactor; Carbon monoxide oxidation; Surface sensitivity; Catalytic anisotropy; Growth; Nucleation; Topography; Roughness; Core-shell structures; Morphology; Nanostructured; Nanocomposite; Nanoparticles; Surface structure; Polycrystalline surfaces; Thin films; Copper oxide; Cerium dioxide CeO2 ; Ceria;

    Abstract : Cerium dioxide, or ceria, is a chemically stable oxygen ion conducting material with a capacity to store and release oxygen, and is therefore extensively used in combustion catalysts. The Cu-Ce-O system has been identified as one of the most active catalysts for the combustion of carbon monoxide. READ MORE

  7. 5. The Effects of Morphology and Surface Oxidation of Stainless Steel Powder in Laser Based-Powder Bed Fusion

    Author : Dmitri Riabov; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; additive manufacturing; powder surface; 316L stainless steel; oxides; oxidation; laser based-powder bed fusion; morphology; powder properties; powder production;

    Abstract : Laser based-powder bed fusion (LB-PBF) is one of the many techniques within additive manufacturing (AM) that allows for near net shape manufacturing of metallic components. By using powder feedstock, it is possible to spread thin layers of powder and further selectively fuse powder in a repetitive manner until the component is completed. READ MORE
