  1. 1. 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

  2. 2. Human Exposure to Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl : Substances through Fish Consumption

    University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap och teknik

    Author : Welmoed Nauta; [2023]
    Keywords : Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances; Human exposure; Fish consumption; Glasbruket; Target analysis; Mass balance analysis;

    Abstract : Human exposure to per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) occurs mainly through two pathways, inhalation and ingestion. Dietary exposure to persistent organic pollutants (POPs), including PFAS, is driven mainly by the consumption of foods of marine or terrestrial animal origin. READ MORE

  3. 3. Exploring Regioselective 5N-acylation of Neuraminic acid

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Author : Simon Hans Lilje; [2022]
    Keywords : acylation; amide; antibacterial drugs; regioselective deprotection; sialic acid; organic chemistry; Chemistry;

    Abstract : In this project, a regioselective method to deprotect and acylate the amide on C5 of sialic acid is explored. Sialic acid is one of the most complex monosaccharides and is an important ligand in many higher organisms in intercellular cell communication. The most prominent example is related to the immune system. READ MORE

  4. 4. Oxidation of cellulose to favour its dissolution in alkaline aqueous solution before regeneration into textile yarn

    University essay from KTH/Kemiteknik

    Author : Martin Orpiszak; [2021]
    Keywords : Cellulose; periodate oxidation; dissolution; regeneration; textile yarn; cellulosa; natriumperjodat oxidation; upplösning; regenerering; textilgarn;

    Abstract : Detta examensarbete är en del av CelluFil-projektet och syftar till att optimera förhållandena för upplösning av cellulosa i vattenlösning av natriumhydroxid följd av regenering i form av ett garn. Tidigare arbeten har visa tatt cellulosa kan lösas i vattenlösning vid -10°C, men sådana förhållanden är inte tillämpliga i industriell skala. READ MORE

  5. 5. Modelling Competitive Sorption of Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFASs) to Soil and Sorbents

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Author : Linnea Georgii; [2021]
    Keywords : PFAS; modelling; competitive sorption; adsorption; isotherms; PFAS; modellering; konkurrenseffekter; adsorption; isotermer;

    Abstract : Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) have become contaminants of increasing concern to society due to the contamination of drinking water and the ecosystem. A better understanding of the sorption and transport of PFASs in soil systems is urgently needed, however there have been few studies dedicated to investigating competitive sorption among PFASs, and there is no available model to model such effects.
