  1. 1. Modified cellulose synthesized by different deep eutectic solvents as an additive in paper making process

    University essay from Karlstads universitet

    Author : Shiniar Said Saleh; [2023]
    Keywords : green chemistry; dry strength additives; deep eutectic solvents; sodium periodate oxidation; charge density; dewatering; mechanical strength.;

    Abstract : The environmental concerns that come with the currently used traditional papermaking process where petroleum-based additives are used, has tempted researchers to study “green” additives by introducing environmentally friendly modifications of cellulose as an additive in the papermaking process. This thesis will spin further on that by producing additives with different charge densities and focus on to incorporate an etherification reaction into potentially greens systems based on non-toxic and readily biodegradable deep eutectic solvent (DES).

  3. 2. Geomechanical testing of non-hardening grout : for determination of flowability and strength properties

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Geoteknologi

    Author : Axel Barrdahl; [2022]
    Keywords : Non-hardening; Grout; Embankment dam; Repair; Fall cone; Uniaxial Compressive Strength; UCS; Triaxial;

    Abstract : Due to an increasing amount of aging tendencies in Swedish embankment dams, failures such as internal erosion has become a more common problem. Internal erosion is a phenomenon where certain soil material within the embankment dam is removed, often over a longer period of time. READ MORE

  4. 3. Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) adhesives reinforced by microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) – adhesive properties and reinforcement mechanisms

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

    Author : Daniela Wloch; [2019]
    Keywords : PVA adhesive; boric acid; MFC; cross-linkers; aluminum sulfate; initial wet tack;

    Abstract : The aim of the project was to investigate a green and sustainable replacement for boric acid in polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) adhesives for solid paperboard production. Boric acid acts as a cross-linker and tackifier in the adhesive but is classified as a harmful substance. READ MORE

  5. 4. Micromechanical Numeric Investigation of Fiber Bonds in 3D Network Structures.

    University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära (Avd.)

    Author : YAĞIZ AZİZOĞLU; [2014]
    Keywords : Finite element; strength additive; 3D model; fiber network model; contact stiffness; paper strength; AFM; fiber adhesion.;

    Abstract : In manufacturing of paper and paperboard, optimized fiber usage has crucial importance for process efficiency and profitability. Dry strength of paper is one of the important quality criteria, which can be improved by adding dry strength additive that affect fiber to fiber bonding. READ MORE
