    Abstract : In the past few years, studies regarding new bio-based materials have led to an increased attention in the nanoscale product of cellulose, called nanocellulose. This biodegradable and renewable material has interesting physical, optical and thermal properties. READ MORE

  3. 2. Investigating an electroplating method of Co-Cr alloys : A design of experiment approach to determine the impact of key factors on the electroplating process

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för tillämpad fysik och elektronik

    Author : Andreas Nordenström; [2018]
    Keywords : design of experiment; electroplating; selective surfaces; Co-Cr; Fractional factorial design; concentrating solar collectors; experimentell design; elektroplätering; solfångare;

    Abstract : Solar energy is increasingly being considered a promising solution to reduce the emissions of CO2 and green house gas. The performance of solar collectors largely depends on the ability to absorb incoming solar radiation with minimal thermal radiation losses. READ MORE

  4. 3. Optical and Mechanical Properties of Cool Roof Paint Containing Hollow Thermoplastic Microspheres

    University essay from Institutionen för kemi - Ångström

    Author : Olof Sandin; [2013]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This master thesis examines the effect of hollow thermoplastic microspheres in coolroof paints. These types of paints are characterized by their high reflectivity forwavelengths up to 2.5 micrometers and high absorptivity in the IR region. Thethermoplastic microspheres were produced by Expancel®, a unit withinAkzoNobel®. READ MORE

  5. 4. Hydrogen diffusion in nano-sized materials : investigated by direct imaging

    University essay from Materialfysik

    Author : Andreas Bliersbach; [2011]
    Keywords : hydrogen; diffusion; hydrogen diffusion; metal hydride; vanadiumhydride; vanadium hydride; VHx; thin-film; thin film;

    Abstract : The kinetics of interstitial hydrogen are of great interest and importance for metal-hydride storage, purification, fusion and fission reactor technology, material failure processes, optical sensors for hydrogen gas and many other technologies. In particular nano-sized materials motivate fascinating applications and scientific questions. READ MORE
