  1. 1. A novel chitosan-stearic coating with bee-pollen microcapsules for corrosion protection

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Albin Andersson; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In this project a novel chitosan-stearic acid (CS-SA) coating with bee-pollen microcapsules for encapsulation of 2-mecraptobenzothiazole (MBT) as a waterborne formulation for a biocompatible corrosion protection coating was developed and the coating properties was analyzed. Hydrophobic stearic acid (SA) was crosslinked with via a carbodiimide reaction to form micelles and is assembled on the bee- pollen grains and the chitosan matrix was further self-crosslinked using glutaraldehyde (GA).

  2. 2. Light stability of purple corn anthocyanins microencapsulated with different wall materials

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master)

    Author : Yang Cai; [2018]
    Keywords : Anthocyanin; micro-encapsulation; SEM; micro-encapsulation efficiency; HPLC; degrading rate; food technology; livsmedelsteknologi; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Anthocyanin, a subgroup of flavonoids, is one of the most extensively distributed plant-based components (Pedreschi R,2007). What impedes a broader industrial adoption of anthocyanins is its poor stability. Micro-encapsulation is one of the most popular techniques to protect the anthocyanins from oxidation. READ MORE

  3. 3. Mathematical modeling of insulin response in encapsulated islets of Langerhans

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Mattias Lundén; [2014]
    Keywords : Encapsulation; glucose; insulin; secretion; islets; Type 1 diabetes mellitus;

    Abstract : Transplantation of the islets of Langerhans is a promising technique for restoring the impairedinsulin production in brittle type 1 diabetics. The downside is that the patient will have to takeimmunosuppressant drugs in order to protect the islet cells from the immune system. READ MORE

  4. 4. Applications of Ultra Smart Textiles in Sportswear and Garments

    University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Institutionen Textilhögskolan

    Author : MUHAMMAD ZAHID NAEEM; SHAHNAWAZ MEHMOOD; [2010]
    Keywords : phase change material; smart textiles; paraffins phase change material;

    Abstract : Smart textiles especially Phase Change Materials (PCMs) are getting attention because these materials can provide regulation of wearer’s body climate and provide comfort in the temperature fluctuations during the physical activity like sports. These materials have the advantage of latent heat energy storage that can absorb and release high amount of energy over a narrow temperature range around the human’s body temperature to provide thermal comfort.
