Processing and upgrading of lignin for high-value applications
(2024-12-04) - ThesisLignin is a complex, heterogeneous biopolymer composed of aromatic subunits connected through a variety of interunit linkages. It is the second most abundant natural biopolymer behind cellulose. Lignin represents a renewable ... -
Dynamic covalent exchange on metal-organic framework nanoparticles
(2024-12-04) - ThesisThis Thesis focuses on the development of surface modified metal-organic framework nanoparticles (MOF NPs) with hydrazones, which can be used for potential dynamic covalent exchanges to reversibly modify their surface. Two ... -
Investigating the structural stability and reactivity of zeolites utilising solid-state NMR
(2024-12-04) - ThesisThe primary focus of this thesis, discussed in chapter 5, explores the ¹⁷O enrichment of zeolites utilising H₂¹⁷O (l). With a focus on exploring what factors affect the lability of zeolites under these aqueous conditions. ... -
Study and design of (110) layered perovskites for photocatalytic applications
(2024-06-13) - ThesisPhotocatalysis is a promising technique for addressing energy scarcity and environmental pollution. Layered perovskites with the formula of AₙBₙO₃ₙ+2 are promising materials for photocatalytic application due to their ... -
Understanding the biosynthesis of halogenated nucleosides from Streptomycetes
(2024-06-13) - ThesisNucleocidin and dealanylascamycin are two halogenated nucleoside antibiotics produced by Streptomyces calvus and Streptomyces sp. JCM9888, respectively. They share an identical 5’-O-sulfamoyl ribose moiety, but nucleocidin ...
