Characterization of Porous Structures of Cellulose Nanofibrils Loaded with Salicylic Acid
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Bleached and unbleached pulp fibers were treated with 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpyperidine-1-oxyl (TEMPO) mediated oxidation to obtain cellulose nanofibrils (CNFs). The resulting bleached and unbleached CNFs were mixed with ... -
Characterization of Rough PTFE Surfaces by the Modified Wilhelmy Balance Technique
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The wetting of rough polymer surfaces is of great importance for many technical applications. In this paper, we demonstrate the relationship between the mean roughness values and the fractal dimension of rough and self-affine ... -
Cyclic Compression Testing of Three Elastomer Types— A Thermoplastic Vulcanizate Elastomer, a Liquid Silicone Rubber and Two Ethylene-Propylene-Diene Rubbers
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Thermoplastic elastomer vulcanizate (TPV) and liquid silicone rubber (LSR) are replacement candidates for ethylene-propylene-diene rubbers (EPDM), as they offer the possibility for twocomponent injection moulding. In this ... -
Designing Composite Adaptive Propeller Blades with Passive Bend–Twist Deformation for Periodic-Load Variations Using Multiple Design Concepts
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Four plausible design concepts are applied together to investigate composite bend–twist propeller-blade designs that show high twisting per bending deflection. The design concepts are first explained on a simplified blade ... -
Enhanced Impact Strength of Recycled PET/Glass Fiber Composites
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)In this paper, we report a study on the effects of different ethylene copolymers in improving the impact strength of a fiber-reinforced composite based on a recycled poly(ethylene terephthalate) (rPET) from post-consumer ... -
Experimental verification of the elastic response in a numeric model of a composite propeller blade with bend twist deformation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Adaptive composite propeller blades showing bend twist behaviour have received increasing interest from hydrodynamic and structural engineers. When exposed to periodic loading conditions, such propellers can be designed ... -
Modelling of environmental ageing of polymers and polymer composites—durability prediction methods
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Polymers and polymer composites are negatively impacted by environmental ageing, reducing their service lifetimes. The uncertainty of the material interaction with the environment compromises their superior strength and ... -
Modelling of Environmental Ageing of Polymers and Polymer Composites—Modular and Multiscale Methods
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Service lifetimes of polymers and polymer composites are impacted by environmental ageing. The validation of new composites and their environmental durability involves costly testing programs, thus calling for more affordable ... -
Spinning Cellulose Hollow Fibers Using 1-Ethyl-3-methylimidazolium Acetate–Dimethylsulfoxide Co-Solvent
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)The mixture of the ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate (EmimAc) and dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) was employed to dissolve microcrystalline cellulose (MCC). A 10 wt % cellulose dope solution was prepared for spinning ... -
The Structure, Morphology, and Complex Permittivity of Epoxy Nanodielectrics with in Situ Synthesized Surface-Functionalized SiO2

Thermal oxidation of polyolefins by mild pro-oxidant additives based on iron carboxylates and lipophilic amines: Degradability in the absence of light and effect on the adhesion to paperboard
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015)Marine and inland pollution by non-degradable plastic bags and other plastic articles is a topic of great concern. Natural degradation processes based on oxidation of plastic pollutants could possibly contribute to limit ...
