Abstract:
Polyurethanes (PU) are widely used synthetic polymers. The growing amount of PU used industrially has resulted in a worldwide increase of plastic wastes. The related environmental pollution as well as the limited availability of the raw materials based on petrochemicals requires novel solutions for their efficient degradation and recycling. The degradation of the polyester PU Impranil DLN by the polyester hydrolases LC cutinase (LCC), TfCut2, Tcur1278 and Tcur0390 was analyzed using a turbidimetric assay. The highest hydrolysis rates were obtained with TfCut2 and Tcur0390. TfCut2 also showed a

Abstract:
Buried in Polyester is a collection of essays in three parts loosely connected around the theme of the loss of my mother. Much like JoAnn Beard's The Boys of My My Youth, the essays hold up pieces of my life for inspection and puts them down again, not always with a sense of resolution. The subtext of the piece revolves around the search to put together the pieces of what my life was before and after my mother, and the transition from girlhood to adulthood with the absence of my mother. I hope also to explore how the self splits after a traumatic death, and the desperate attempt at recreation

Abstract:
Dendrimers are a fairly new class of macromolecule. They have many potential uses including use in surface coatings and as host molecules. There are two main methods available for constructing dendrimers, the convergent approach and the divergent approach. In this thesis dendrimers were synthesised using the divergent approach. In chapter one our original aim was to synthesise dendrimers based on bicine, but there were complications involved in synthesis and storage of the monomer. However, it was possible to make a iminium salt using bicine as the starting material, which was reacted with var

During the course of these studies, polyester polyurethane foam has been found to be readily degraded in soil and marine environments. The incorporation of the formulation biocide Vinyzene E.P. reduced the rate and extent of degradation in test material exposed to soil conditions, but was found to be ineffective in preventing degradation when exposed to the marine environment. As a result of these studies, a number of fungi, representing a range of genera, have been isolated, identified, and shown using Kochian principles to degrade polyester polyurethane as a sole source of carbon.

A previous study, looking at the creep-rupture behaviour of mixed reinforcement GRP when immersed in water, had discovered that low loads, behaviour became temperature sensitive. Since the recorded time to failure of a sample was reduced at elevated temperatures, from that predicted by a linear extrapolation of the short term creep-rupture results, this deviation caused problems in the accurate prediction of long-term design stresses. In order to improve the accuracy of long term design predictions, it was decided to study the mechanisms of creep in GRP that initiates time dependent failure. F
