1. 1. Analyzing Raw Material Characteristics for Composite and Bio-composite preparation and Assessing Environmental Impacts through LCA

   University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

   Author : Lakshay Vashist; [2023]
   Keywords : Plastic; Polymers; Composites; Bio-composites; Synthetic Fibers; Natural Fibers; Mechanical Properties; Life Cycle Assessment LCA ; Plast; polymerer; kompositer; biokompositer; syntetiska fibrer; naturliga fibrer; mekaniska egenskaper; livscykelanalys LCA ;

   Abstract : With the population expected to grow dramatically in the future. The existing state of the ecosystem appears to be worse in the future. One of the key culprits that has been wreaking havoc on the ecosystem is the use of plastic that is used to produce composites. READ MORE

3. 2. Thermoset biopolymer reinforced with carbon-nanotubes

   University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

   Author : Morteza Esmaeili; [2019]
   Keywords : biopolymers; bio-composites; glycerol lactic acid; carbon nanotube; reinforcement; thermoset; dispersion;

   Abstract : Compared to conventional fibers, carbon nanotubes possess several significant properties, which make them as an excellent alternative reinforcement in multi-functional material industry. In this study, the possibility of dispersion of the multi-wall carbon nanotube (MWCNTs) in a thermoset bio-based resin (synthesized based on end-functionalized glycerol-lactic acid oligomers, GLA, at university of Borås) was investigated.

4. 3. Biomechanical Analysis of Implant plates for Mandibular Condyle fractures

   University essay from

   Author : Viswambik Rohit Kumar Dhurvasula; [2019]
   Keywords : Finite Element Analysis; Hydroxyapatite; Poly-L-lactic acid; stress shielding; Maxillofacial surgery.;

   Abstract : In the field of maxillofacial surgery, the treatment for the recovery of the fracture at condyle region of the mandible has been carried out using Bio-metals such as Titanium, Cobalt, Stainless-Steel because they were considered the standard materials for Implant plate devices for fracture fixation. Using these materials have led to undesired disturbances where the patient must undergo secondary surgery after recovery leading to exposure of the fracture site to the surrounding, metal-ion release into the human system, stress-shielding and interruption during imaging i.
