La celulosa es el polímero más abundante en la Tierra y en los últimos años ha ganado un amplio interés como fuente de nuevos productos con requisitos de procesamiento y de calidad diferentes a los procesos convencionales ...
Cusola i Aumedes, Oriol (Date of defense: 2013-12-20)
This thesis deals with the surface modification of cellulosic substrates by use of chemo-enzymatic methods. Functionalizing cellulose is intended to adjust its properties for various purposes, but particularly for obtaining ...
Buscio Olivera, Valentina (Date of defense: 2015-12-12)
Textile industry consumes large amount of water in their processes, mainly in dyeing and finishing operations. In general, during the dyeing process, up to 30% of dyes used can be discharged into wastewater. For this reason, ...
Vilaseca i Vallvé, M. Mercè (Date of defense: 2015-05-10)
This thesis is based on the study of colour elimination of textile effluents which contain reactive dyes. Reactive dyes are widely used in the dyeing of cotton and other cellulosic fibre. However they exhibit a low degree ...
Labay, Cédric (Date of defense: 2014-06-12)
Medical applications of technical textiles are an expanding field of research. One of the added values of these new materials would be that they were suitable to contain and release active compounds in a controlled and ...
Carrera Gallissà, Enric (Date of defense: 2014-03-23)
Drape indicators reported by textile researchers from 1950 to 2013 are examined. A total of 36 indicators were identified that are described in detail as regards geometric principle and calculation in order to unify existing ...
Carreras Parera, Núria (Date of defense: 2012-07-03)
Mathematical drug release modelling of biodegradable polymeric systems by microencapsulation technology in textiles has not progressed much yet, because it is generally too complex. The release of a therapeutic agent from ...
Manau Trullàs, Rosa (Date of defense: 2011-03-18)
Vivim en un món de color. Tot té un color. El fet que tinguem receptors tan específics per a l’estímul del color ens confirma la importància que té per als éssers humans. Responem al color, de manera activa o passiva, en ...
