1. 1. 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.

   Author : Chaitanya Krishna Jammula; [2019]
   Keywords : Aluminium silicon carbide; silicon carbide; wear test and scratch test;

   Abstract : Aluminium is one of the metals playing a prominent role in automobile industry after cast iron. Because of its light weight property and good mechanical properties. When aluminium reinforced with silicon carbide showing good tribological properties and improved strength. READ MORE

4. 3. Influence of ANS Triboconditioning on friction and fatigue in rolling contact configurations

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

   Author : Björn Hedmark; Per Wallgren; [2019]
   Keywords : Tribology; friction; fatigue; micropitting; surface engineering; twin-disc; triboconditioning; LTU;

   Abstract : The automotive industry is constantly being challenged by customers and authorities to enhance the efficiency of the internal combustion engine (ICE) in order to achieve improved fuel consumption and reduced emissions. There are several interfaces within the design of an ICE that causes frictional losses, one of them is the valvetrain. READ MORE

5. 4. Mechanical and Thermal Characterisation of Novel UHMWPE Composites for Total Joint Arthroplasty

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

   Author : Julian Somberg; [2019]
   Keywords : UHMWPE; Nanocomposites; DSC; Fracture Toughness; Wear;

   Abstract : Total joint arthroplasty surgeries are known to have a high success rate but the longevity of the implants still acts as a limiting factor. Ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene is the material of choice for the implant bearing surfaces due to its excellent clinical and tribological performance. READ MORE

6. 5. Enhancement of Phenol Formaldehyde Adhesive with Crystalline Nano Cellulose

   University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för skog och träteknik (SOT)

   Author : Johan Ekstrand; [2019]
   Keywords : Nano Cellulose; Fibrillated cellulose; Wood Adhesive; Shear strength; Adhesive Enhancement; Formaldehyde adhesive; Phenol Formaldehyde;

   Abstract : Abstract The wood industries to this day use almost exclusively petroleum derived adhesives that are based mainly on the reaction of formaldehyde with urea, melamine or phenol. These adhesives have low cost and good adjustable properties which makes it hard for bio-based alternatives to compete. READ MORE
