Polycotton becomes household products

The amount of textile waste consisting of polyester-cotton blends (polycotton) amounts to close to one hundred million tonnes annually, most of which is currently incinerated or sent to landfill. The household products industry, i…

Accelerated development of lignin-based elastomers

The aim is to overcome the century-old advantage of traditional petrochemical elastomers. The research project combines approaches from three key areas: materials science, artificial intelligence and robotics.

Accelerated Industrialization of Lignin-based Elastomers

Elastomers are crucial and almost ubiquitous in modern society, but is largely based on petrochemical feedstocks. The promising bio-based alternatives, e.g. chemically modified lignin, is gathering the interest of key industrial p…

Graphene-coated optical fibers for sensor applications

Optical fiber coatings are essential for the performance and reliability of the optical fiber in application. In this project, RISE developed a nanocomposite coating using graphene oxide and polyimide, and validated its potential …

Structure-property relationships in lignin-based carbonaceous material

What makes carbon materials derived from forest resources better filter materials for water purification? A closer inspection of the relationship between biochar production and performance will be performed through sophisticated s…

Air filter from recycled bio-based materials - BioReFil

Air purification is a big and topical issue, with applications in both indoor climates and the automotive industry. Many air filter materials are based on fossil raw materials. The main aim of this project was to further develop a…

Biobased thermally conductive composites

Electrification is seen as one of the most viable solutions for realizing a drastic global reduction of green-house gases. The goal of this project is to develop novel polymers formulations that will help lead heat away from where…

Nanometrology Methods for Magnetic Nanoparticles

The objectives of the EU financed NanoMag project were to standardize, improve and redefine analysing methods of magnetic nanoparticles. Using improved manufacturing technologies, synthesized magnetic nanoparticles with specific p…

Lignin-based elastomers

With a growing demand for environmentally friendly and sustainable materials, bio-based elastomers are becoming increasingly important in industry and research. Using renewable raw materials such as lignin, a by-product of the for…

Nanotechnology

The extremely small length scale of nanomaterials (below 100 nm) results in unique properties, such as optical, electronic, mechanical and magnetic properties. RISE offer a wide range of expertise to help you enable those unique p…

Magnetic sensor systems, magnetic analys

A combination of our unique labs and knowledge of magnetism, magnetic nanoparticles, materials synthesis and magnetic sensor systems makes it possible to carry out magnetic analysis and characterisation of various magnetic materia…
