  1. 1. Incorporation of Plasticizers through Refining into Wood Pulp : A Potential Route For Bio-based Thermoplastic Materials

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Victor Eric Pierre Chartrain; [2023]
    Keywords : Cellulose; Paper; Plasticizer; Mechanical Refining; Cellulosa; Papper; Mjukgörare; mekanisk bearbetning;

    Abstract : Fibers are interesting materials alternative to replace conventional fossil-based plastics, as they are bio-based and do not lead to CO2 emissions. Due to their limited ductility, it is difficult to use them to make complex three-dimensional shapes. READ MORE

  3. 2. Improvements in Energy Efficiency of Vacuum Dewatering of Greaseproof Paper : Simulation of a Triple Vacuum Suction Box in Laboratory Scale

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Avdelningen för kemiteknik

    Author : Björn Öman; [2023]
    Keywords : Vacuum dewatering; greaseproof paper; triple vacuum suction box; grammage; energy efficiency; dryness; Vakuumavvattning; greaseproofpapper; trippelvakuumsuglåda; ytvikt; energieffektivitet; torrhalt;

    Abstract : Vacuum dewatering of paper is a heavily energy expensive process, even more so for greaseproof paper, which is one of the main products at Nordic Paper Seffle AB. Due to this being such an energy demanding process, improvements in the vacuum dewatering could save massive amounts of energy. READ MORE

  4. 3. Mechanical properties of viscose filament : Made from recycled cotton textile and softwood dissolving pulp

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för ingenjörs- och kemivetenskaper (from 2013)

    Author : Sanne Karlsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Recycled cotton textile; recycled textile; dissolving pulp; wood dissolving pulp; softwood; viscose dope; viscose filament; the viscose process; spinning process; Återvunnen bomullstextil; återvunnen textil; dissolvingmassa; trädissolvingmassa; barrved; viskos dop; viskosfilament; viskosprocessen; spinningprocess;

    Abstract : The textile industry is one of the largest industries in the world and it causes up to 10 % of the global greenhouse gas emissions. With large environmental issues of cotton- and oil-based textiles, other options are explored such as man-made fibers producing fibers like viscose and lyocell. READ MORE

  5. 4. The impact of interface characteristics on the recyclability and repulpability of packaging material

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Ingrid Isacsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Tetra Pak ®; Recyclability; repulpability; packaging material; fiber-based barrier; chemical engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The world is slowly moving towards a more environmentally friendly mindset and many companies, such as Tetra Pak® have followed this lead by producing more environmentally friendly products and developing better materials with less environmental impact. To accommodate these requirements, it is important that the package is recyclable. READ MORE

  6. 5. The influence of post-buckling damage on the tensile properties of single wood pulp fibers

    University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära

    Author : Raphael Andreolli; [2021]
    Keywords : Solid Mechanics; single fiber testing; wood pulp fibers; post-buckling damage; experiments; development of testing methods; tensile properties; tensile stiffness; tensile strength; Hållfasthetslära; enskild fiber testning; pappersmassa fiber; skada efter knäckning; experiment; utveckling av testutrustning; dragegenskaper; dragstyvhet; draghållfasthet;

    Abstract : The rapid growth of plastic waste from food packaging around the world demands renewable substitutes, such as natural fibers and biocomposites. Wood fibers are natural fibers extracted from trees and are commonly used in packaging. READ MORE
