  1. 1. Qualitative Analysis of Chlorinated Paraffins in Recycled Plastics

    University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap och teknik

    Author : Solal GAUDIN; [2023]
    Keywords : Short chain Chlorinated Paraffins SCCP Medium chain Chlorinated Paraffins MCCP Long chain Chlorinated Paraffins LCCP Recycled plastics Qualitative analysis Bioaccumulation Long range transport Gas Chromatography – Mass spectrometry;

    Abstract : Described in many studies as dangerous for the environment and potentially carcinogenic for humans, Chlorinated Paraffins (CPs) are easily widespread due to their substantial production and use in different products. Previous studies reported the presence of CPs in different plastic polymers. READ MORE

  3. 2. Evaluation of Woodmer/plastic composites

    University essay from KTH/Fiber- och polymerteknologi

    Author : Leon Ahlström; [2023]
    Keywords : Extrusion; Woodmer; Flame test; Tensile test; Composites; Extrudering; Woodmer; Flamtest; Dragtest; Kompositer;

    Abstract : Plast ger otroliga möjligheter i form av stor variation för materialanvändning. Tyvärr sker det dock på bekostnad av miljön då de ackumuleras i naturen. En kompromiss mellan hållbarhet och fortsatt plastanvändning skulle kunna vara att använda biomassa som fyllnadsmaterial i plastkompositer istället för plast. READ MORE

  4. 3. 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

  5. 4. Incorporation of Plasticizers through Refining into Wood Pulp : A Potential Route For Bio-based Thermoplastic Materials

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Victor Eric Pierre Chartrain; [2023]
    Keywords : Cellulose; Paper; Plasticizer; Mechanical Refining; Cellulosa; Papper; Mjukgörare; mekanisk bearbetning;

    Abstract : Fibers are interesting materials alternative to replace conventional fossil-based plastics, as they are bio-based and do not lead to CO2 emissions. Due to their limited ductility, it is difficult to use them to make complex three-dimensional shapes. READ MORE

  6. 5. Robust and Biocompatible Bonding of Hybrid Microfluidic Devices Using Off-Stoichiometric Thiol-ene Thermosets

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Peter Harris; [2023]
    Keywords : OSTE; OSTE ; Microfluidics; Thermoset; Bonding; Thermoplastics; Biocompatibility; OSTE; OSTE ; Mikrofluidik; Härdplast; Binding; Termoplaster; Biokompatibilitet;

    Abstract : Some of the major obstacles the microfluidics industry has yet to overcome in order to facilitate large scale manufacturing of devices are costly back-end processes. Among these, bonding presents some of the most obvious difficulties and is often associated with structural deformation and surface modification. READ MORE
