1. 26. Crosslinked Cartonboard - Challenges and possibilities

   University essay from Mälardalens universitet/Akademin för innovation, design och teknik

   Author : Malin Elvin; [2022]
   Keywords : Cartonboard; crosslinking; mechanical properties; SCT;

   Abstract : The need for sustainable packaging is growing, and plastic waste needs to be reduced. A suitable alternative could be fibre-based packaging and cartonboard, and several actions could enhance this alternative. This study investigates crosslinking, a method to create stronger bonds between the OH-groups in the material. READ MORE

   Abstract : The human skin is the largest and most complex body organ but accessible and attractive for biomarker sampling and transdermal drug delivery. The two procedures are significantly impacted by several biophysical properties of the skin, especially the pH and stratum corneum (SC)hydration. READ MORE

4. 28. Understanding the correlation between molecular structure of chilled dairy creams and the risk of environmental stress cracking in Tetra Pak® carton packages

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master)

   Author : Alejandra Fernandez Castaneda; [2022]
   Keywords : Cream; microestructure; environmental stress cracking; food technology and nutrition; Agriculture and Food Sciences;

   Abstract : Multilayer food packaging are lined with an inner layer of plastic and has excellent barrier properties. However, plastics lose their mechanical properties after being exposed to certain conditions; the combination of factors generates failures in the material such as the appearance of cracks, this phenomenon is known as environmental stress cracking (ESC).

5. 29. Integration of food shelf-life in life cycle assessment of polymers

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Förpackningslogistik

   Author : Divya Sukumaran Nair; [2021]
   Keywords : Food shelf-life; life cycle assessment; biopolymers; food packaging; sustainability; shelf-life induced food waste; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Biopolymers are being considered as a promising alternative to fossil-based polymers and this inclination towards biopolymers is due to their lower environmental impact owing to their origin from renewable resources. The environmental impact assessment, however, often does not consider the impact of barrier properties of polymers and the resulting differences in food waste generated in the supply chain.
