  1. 1. WEAR RESISTANT MULTI FUNCTIONAL POLYMER COATINGS

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

    Author : Pranay Kumar Parsi; [2023]
    Keywords : Polymer coatings; Materials; Tribology; Wear resistant; Ice adhesion; Freezing delay; Anti-icing de-icing;

    Abstract : This study aims to develop coatings which show wear resistant behaviour along with multiple functions such as improved ice adhesion, better freezing delay etc which help in improving the effectiveness of the wind turbine efficiency. The significance of anti-icing/de-icing solutions for wind turbines is emphasized since ice accretion can cause serious issues in generation of power and might lead to damage of blades. READ MORE

  2. 2. Service life study of environmentally friendly lubricants.

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

    Author : Marybeth Chetachukwu Ugoh; [2023]
    Keywords : Base oil; Ageing; Glycerol; PPG; PEG; Squalene; Rapeseed oil; Ester; Paraffin; Oxidation; FTIR;

    Abstract : Environmentally friendly lubricants are in demand in response to the rising concerns and restrictive legislation that surround the use of mineral oil lubricants. One area of importance is understanding the service life of the environmentally friendly base oils of these non-toxic, biodegradable and renewable alternatives. READ MORE

  3. 3. An evaluation of materials and processes suitable for manufacturing micro HASEL-actuators

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Mikrosystemteknik

    Author : Anna Lindgren; [2021]
    Keywords : HASEL-actuator; paraffin blend;

    Abstract : HASEL-actuators use dielectric liquids and compliant shells as their media. This type of actuatorwould suit the actuators used as fins for soft milli robots (SOMIRO). These robots are going tobe used in aquaponic crops for studying its impact on the environment to help the farmersimprove their crops. READ MORE

  4. 4. The Interaction of Oil and Polymer in the Microporous Polyethylene Film when using a Thermally Induced Phase Separation Process

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Pontus Erikson; [2019]
    Keywords : Mineraloil; UHMWPE; Separator; Li-ion battery separator; Nynas; TIPS; Microporous film;

    Abstract : The battery separator is a component of the conventional battery that for long has been overlooked. Just because it’s the only inactive component, doesn’t mean it’s any less important for the battery cell. Recent trends point to an immense growth of the electrical vehicle-industry, and by so, also the lithium-ion battery separators market. READ MORE

  5. 5. Development and characterization of tissue-mimicking phantom materials for photoacoustic imaging

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Atomfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Chen Xu; [2019]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Tissue-mimicking phantoms are of great interest in the development of bio-medical applications. Instead of applying to biological tissues directly, phantoms enable stable and easy accessibility to validate spectroscopy systems and measuring processes. This thesis project is centered on the development and characterization of phantoms. READ MORE
