12. Additive manufacturing of lunar regolith simulant using direct ink writing
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad materialvetenskapAbstract : In this work, the use of a lunar regolith simulant as feedstock for the direct ink writing additive manufacturing process is explored, the purpose of which is to enable future lunar in-situ resource utilisation. The feasibility of this approach is demonstrated in a laboratory setting by manufacturing objects with different geometries using methyl cellulose or sodium alginate as binding agents and water as liquid phase together with the lunar regolith simulant EAC-1A to create a viscous, printable ‘ink’ that is used in combination with a custom three-axis gantry system to produce green bodies for subsequent sintering.

15. Towards stimuli-reformable paperboard and flipped classroom in chemistry education : A study of how to create a paper with controllable mechanical properties and a study in how the flipped classroom is used in chemistry education
University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskaplig kommunikation och lärande (ECE)Abstract : Today, paper and paperboard is an important part of the packaging industry, as well as natural part of our daily lives. The alternatives to paper and paperboard is often produced from nonrenewable sources such as petroleum and as demands on sustainability increase in the packaging sector, it gives paper a desirable advantage over plastics.
