  1. 6. Chemical modification of starch in order to get thermoplastic properties

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Emma Hallbert; Elsa Wadman; [2023]
    Keywords : thermoplastic starch; dialdehyde starch; schiff-base; imine chemistry; termoplastisk stärkelse; dialdehydstärkelse; schiffbas; iminkemi;

    Abstract : There are numerous advantages of replacing traditional non-biodegradable synthetic plastics with bio-based plastics. Starch is globally available, cheap, renewable, and biodegradable. However, starch has a poor product performance and is relatively difficult to process, as conventional melt processing techniques cannot be used. READ MORE

  3. 7. Service life study of environmentally friendly lubricants.

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Anatomy, Physiology and Biochemistry

    Author : Niklas Nilsson; [2023]
    Keywords : fibersand; underlag; häst; nedbrytning;

    Abstract : Ridsporten är en av de största ungdomsidrotterna inom Sverige. År 2018 beräknades det att cirka 5 miljoner ridtimmar genomförs på landets ridskolor årligen. På grund av Sveriges klimat spenderas mycket av denna tid inom ridhus. READ MORE

  5. 9. Lignin modification for higher reactivity towards epoxides

    University essay from KTH/Fiber- och polymerteknologi

    Author : Filip Rynkiewicz; [2023]
    Keywords : Lignin; modification; reactivity; epoxide; oxidation; Lignin; modifikation; reaktivitet; epoxid; oxidation;

    Abstract : Fem metoder har använts för att modifiera barrvedslignin med syftet att öka reaktiviteten av ligninet mot epoxidgrupper. Ligninprover analyserades med NMR och FTIR medan reaktivitet var mätt genom reometri. Metoder som ökade mängden karboxylsyragrupper på ligninet minskade ligninets reaktivitet. READ MORE

  6. 10. Production of polymers from a papermills wastewater using HTC substrate. : Investigating the viability of using wastewater sludge from Skoghalls’ papermill in combination with filtrate from HTC of sewage sludge to produce biological plastic producing polymers.

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Avdelningen för energi-, miljö- och byggteknik

    Author : Regan George; [2023]
    Keywords : PHA; HTC-substrate; Polymer;

    Abstract : Since their conception, plastics have been a dominant product due to the versatility of use, and readily available raw materials. However, the production and consumption of synthetic plastics have continued to increase over the years, leading to a significant rise in plastic waste and its associated environmental impacts, such as the detrimental effects plastic waste has on ecosystems, including the presence of toxic microplastics and risks to marine life, are becoming the focus of criticism.
