Microplastic fibers (MPFs) from textiles significantly contribute to the microplastic (MP) load in many environmental matrices and have been shown to negatively impact the organisms therein. Most fate and effect studies to date rely on pristine reference MP materials that have limited relevance...

Microplastic fibers (MPFs) from textiles contribute significantly to the microplastic (MP) load in many environmental matrices. MPFs have been shown to be readily ingested by a wide range of organisms representing multiple trophic levels and have been shown to negatively impact organisms. Most fate...

HNBR was analyzed following low temperature storage (between 0 °C and −50 °C) in order to measure the effects of cold crystallization during exposure close to, and below, the glass transition temperature (Tg). Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), dynamic mechanical thermal analysis (DMTA) and...

Hydrolysed Polyacrylamide (HPAM) gels have been used to block zones with high water permeability in oil reservoirs and thereby achieve a better sweep efficiency for enhanced oil recovery (EOR). The HPAM gels have traditionally been crosslinked by Cr (III) ions, and there is outermost interest to...

This paper presents an experimental/numerical study of low temperature pipe reeling, full-scale tests and small scale tests simulating the deformations and loads seen during reeling. The emphasis is on the polymer thermal insulation coating and the interfaces between the coating and steel pipe and...

SINTEF har i samarbeid med 16 bedrifter tilknyttet Norske leverandører til havbruksnæringen (NLTH) gjennomført prosjektet ""Tiltak for å begrense kobberbruk i havbruk - optimalisere metoder for å impregnere not"", som er finansiert av Fiskeri- og havbruksnæringens forskningsfond. Begroing i havbruk...
