1. 1. Combustibility study of resin for warm magnet coils used at CERN

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

   Author : Juan Carlos Lopez Santiago; [2023]
   Keywords : Epoxy resin; flammability; radiation; aging; cone calorimeter; micro combustion calorimeter; thermogravimetric analysis; lateral ignition and flame spread test; chemical composition of polymers; polymers; epoxy composite; polymer composite; failure of epoxy resins; magnetic coil; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : CERN is the world's largest particle physics laboratory, housing multiple accelerators that rely heavily on magnetic coils. These coils are integral to the generation of powerful magnetic fields essential for particle accelerator experiments, detectors, and other equipment. READ MORE

3. 2. Viscoelasticity of transparent wood-polymer biocomposites : Measuring the time-dependence of a delignified birch and poly(methyl methacrylate) composite’s mechanical properties, using digital image correlation

   University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

   Author : Marine Jeanne Debouvry; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The viscoelastic behavior of a delignified birch and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) composite was investigated, in an effort to learn more about the mechanical properties of transparent wood-polymer biocomposites. Tensile creep tests with constant load were performed for native wood, non-delignified, and delignified wood-polymer composites. READ MORE

4. 3. Influence of Humidity Over the Properties of Wood Fiber-based Biocomposites

   University essay from KTH/Fiber- och polymerteknologi

   Author : Arvid Hedin; Anna Kudinova; Linnea Masso; [2022]
   Keywords : Wood Polymer Composite; WPC; Relative Humidity; RH; Tensile Testing; Polypropene; FibraQ; Wood Fiber; Surface Treatment; Mechanical Properties;

   Abstract : The project aims to develop a methodology to study the variation in properties of wood polymer composites (WPC’s) with/without surface treatment at different humidity conditions. The project aims to investigate the behavior of biocomposites at 50%, 80%and 100% relative humidity (RH). READ MORE

5. 4. Mechanical properties of compression moulded fibre composite sheets

   University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära

   Author : Jakob Engström; [2021]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : This master thesis project was carried out at a large international company in the forest industry. The company is currently interested in producing sheet formed composite materials with high wood fibre content that can be further processed and formed using conventional compression moulding.

6. 5. Multifunctional Wood Polymer Composites Reinforced with Graphene Nanoplatelets : Investigating if multifunctionality can be achieved in wood polymer composites through the addition of graphene nanoplatelets

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

   Author : Vanessa Meulenberg; [2019]
   Keywords : Wood polymer composites; graphene; multifunctional; wood flour;

   Abstract : Graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) were used to reinforce wood polymer composites (WPCs) in order to achieve multifunctionality. Multifunctionality could be achieved through the GNPs because of their excellent mechanical and electrical properties. The research consists of two parts: HDPE/GNP/WF composites and LLDPE/GNP composites. READ MORE
