• Absorption of CO2 in lyotropic liquid crystals 

      Rodriguez Fabia, Sandra; Øyen, Marita; Winter-Hjelm, Nicolai; Norrman, Jens; Lund, Reidar; Sørland, Geir; Knuutila, Hanna; Sjøblom, Johan; Paso, Kristofer Gunnar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Vapor–liquid equilibria data of three poly(ethylene oxide)-poly(propylene oxide)-poly(ethylene oxide)/water liquid crystals (LCs) with CO2 has been obtained up to 6 bar. The investigated LCs consist of 60% (EO)3(PO)50(EO)3 ...
    • CO2 in Lyotropic Liquid Crystals: Monoethanolamine-Facilitated Uptake and Swelling 

      Rodriguez Fabia, Sandra; Norrman, Jens; Sjøblom, Johan; Paso, Kristofer Gunnar (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      Ternary systems consisting of amphiphilic block copolymers/water/monoethanolamine (MEA) have been studied as potential solvents for carbon capture and storage (CCS). The phase behavior of two poly(ethylene oxide)-poly(propylene ...
    • CO2 in Lyotropic Liquid Crystals: Phase Equilibria Behavior and Rheology 

      Rodriguez Fabia, Sandra; Norrman, Jens; Knuutila, Hanna K; Sjøblom, Johan; Paso, Kristofer Gunnar (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      The CO2 absorption of liquid crystalline phases of poly(ethylene oxide)-poly(propylene oxide)-poly(ethylene oxide) (Pluronic L92, (EO)8(PO)47(EO)8), monoethanolamine (MEA), and water, with a composition of 60% L92/10% ...
    • Hydrophobisation of lignocellulosic materials part I: physical modification 

      Rodriguez Fabia, Sandra; Torstensen, Jonathan Økland; Johansson, Lars; Syverud, Kristin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      This review is the first part of a comprehensive review of hydrophobisation of lignocellulosic materials. The purpose of this review has been to compare physical hydrophobisation methods of lignocellulosic materials. We ...
    • Hydrophobization of lignocellulosic materials part II: chemical modification. 

      Rodriguez Fabia, Sandra; Torstensen, Jonathan Økland; Johansson, Lars; Syverud, Kristin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Lignocellulosic materials with hydrophobic properties are of great interest for developing sustainable products that can be used in various applications such as packaging, water-repellent and self-cleaning materials, oil ...
    • Hydrophobization of lignocellulosic materials part III: modification with polymers 

      Rodriguez Fabia, Sandra; Torstensen, Jonathan Økland; Johansson, Lars; Syverud, Kristin (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
    • Influence of Measuring Geometry on Rheomalaxis of Macrocrystalline Wax–Oil Gels: Alteration of Breakage Mechanism from Adhesive to Cohesive 

      Rodriguez Fabia, Sandra; Fyllingsnes, Regina Lopez; Winter-Hjelm, Nicolai; Norrman, Jens; Paso, Kristofer Gunnar (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Rheological measurement of wax–oil gel breakage is highly susceptible to the phenomenon of adhesive breakage, hindering instrument-scale replication of cohesive breakage processes. Adhesive breakage measurements are ...
    • The influence of temperature on cellulose swelling at constant water density. 

      Torstensen, Jonathan Økland; Ottesen, Vegar; Rodriguez Fabia, Sandra; Syverud, Kristin; Johansson, Lars; Lervik, Anders (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      We have in this paper investigated how water sorbs to cellulose. We found that both cellulose nanofibril (CNF) and cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) films swell similarly, as they are both mainly composed of cellulose. CNF/CNC ...
    • Process Integration of Green Hydrogen: Decarbonization of Chemical Industries 

      Ostadi, Mohammad; Paso, Kristofer Gunnar; Rodriguez Fabia, Sandra; Øi, Lars Erik; Manenti, Flavio; Hillestad, Magne (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      Integrated water electrolysis is a core principle of new process configurations for decarbonized heavy industries. Water electrolysis generates H2 and O2 and involves an exchange of thermal energy. In this manuscript, we ...
