Among the available natural materials, wood is one of the key candidates, because of its excellent mechanical properties. However, wood and wood-based materials in engineering applications suffer from various restraints, such as dimensional instability upon humidity changes. Several wood modification treatments increase water repellence, but the insertion of hydrophobic polymers can result in a composite material which cannot be considered as renewable anymore. In this study, we report on the grafting of the fully biodegradable poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) inside the wood cell walls by Sn(Oct)2 catalysed ring-opening polymerization (ROP). The presence of polyester chains within the wood cell wall structure is monitored by confocal Raman imaging and spectroscopy as well as scanning electron microscopy. Physical tests reveal that the modified wood is more hydrophobic due to the bulking of the cell wall structure with the polyester chains, which results in a novel fully biodegradable wood material with improved dimensional stability.

Der Fokus liegt dabei auf ZnCl2-, SnCl2- und CoCl2-haltigen eutektischen Mischungen, in denen die Kondensation gebräuchlicher organischer Precursoren durchgeführt wird. Im Rahmen dessen wird untersucht wie durch die Reaktionsführung in Salzschmelzen unterschiedlicher Lewis-Acidität, neben der Molekülstruktur andere charakteristische Eigenschaften, wie Morphologie, Kristallinität und spezifische Oberflächen, der Materialien kontrolliert werden können. Darüber hinaus werden die optischen Eigenschaften der Materialien erörtert und in diesem Zusammenhang die Eignung als Photokatalysatoren für den oxidativen Abbau organischer Farbstoffe und für die photokatalytische Wasserreduktion bzw. –oxidation untersucht. Zusätzlich wird gezeigt, wie im System LiCl/KCl in einem einstufigen Prozess edelmetallfreie Kohlenstoffnitrid Komposite zur photokatalytischen Wasserreduktion hergestellt werden können. N2 - The thesis deals with the synthesis of carbon nitride based materials in eutectic mixtures of bivalent metal chlorides. The focus is on ZnCl2, SnCl2 and CoCl2 containing eutectic mixtures in which the condensation reaction of classical organic precursors is carried out. In this context, it is investigated how to control molecular structure and other materials properties, like morphology, crystallinity and specific surface areas by using salt melts of different Lewis acidity. Moreover optical properties of the materials are discussed and in this connection their suitability as photocatalysts for dye degradation and photocatalytic water reduction and oxidation is investigated. Additionally it is demonstrated how to produce noble metal free carbon nitride composites in LiCl/KCl melt for photocatalytic water reduction.

A new preparation approach based on a co-precipitation method has been developed. In its earlier stage of formation, the composite occurs as hydrogel as suspended in aqueous alkaline solution. In order to get solid composites various drying procedures including freeze-drying technique, air-drying at room temperature and at moderate temperatures, between 50oC and 100oC were used. Physicochemical studies showed that the composites exhibit different properties with respect to their structure and composition. IR and Raman spectroscopy probed the presence of both chitosan and hydroxyapatite in the composites. Hydroxyapatite as dispersed in the chitosan matrix was found to be in the nanosize range (15-50 nm) and occurs in a bimodal distribution with respect to its crystallite length. Two types of distribution domains of hydroxyapatite crystallites in the composite matrix such as cluster-like (200-400 nm) and scattered-like domains were identified by the transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and by confocal scanning laser microscopy (CSLM) measurements. Relaxation NMR experiments on composite hydrogels showed the presence of two types of water sites in their gel networks, such as free and bound water. Mechanical tests showed that the mechanical properties of composites are one order of magnitude less than those of compact bone but comparable to those of porous bone. The enzymatic degradation rates of composites showed slow degradation processes. The yields of degradation were estimated to be less than 10% by loss of mass, after incubation with lysozyme, for a period of 50 days. Since the composite materials were found biocompatible by the in vivo tests, the simple mode of their fabrication and their properties recommend them as potential candidates for the non-load bearing bone substitute materials. N2 - Inspiriert von Natur, bei der Kompositmaterialien aus Polymermatrices und anorganischen Füllstoffen z.B. in Knochen, Krustentieren und Eierschalen vorzufinden sind, wurde die Herstellungsmöglichkeit von Kompositmaterial aus Chitosan und Hydroxyapatitdispersionen untersucht. Basierend auf einem Kopräzipitationsverfahren wurde eine neue Herstellungsmethode entwickelt, die als flexibler Zugang zu einem Spektrum von Komposittypen führt. In den frühen Phasen der Kompositbildung entsteht ein in der wässrigen alkalischen Lösung suspendiertes Hydrogel, das durch Filtration und Zentrifugation isoliert werden kann. IR und Ramanspektroskopie klären das Vorhandensein von Chitosan und Hydroxyapatit im Kompositmaterial. Hydroxyapatit ist als Nanopartikel der Größe von 15-50 nm in bimodaler Verteilung in der Chitosanmatrix dispersiert, und in durch Transmissionselektronenmikroskopie (TEM), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) und Konfokaler Laserscanmikroskopie (CSLM) nachweisbaren 200-400 nm großen Clustern assembliert. NMR-Relaxationsmessungen an Hydrogelkompositmaterial decken die Existenz zweier Klassen vorkommenden Wassers im Netzwerk auf, gebundenes und freies Wasser. Mechanische Tests zeigen, dass die mechanische Festigkeit etwa eine Größenordnung unter der von massivem Knochen liegt, der Festigkeit von porösem Knochen aber gleichkommt. Enzymatische Abbauraten des Kompostimaterials sind als langsam einzuschätzen. Eine 50-tägige Einwirkzeit von Lysozym führte zu einem Abbau von 10 % der Kompositmasse. Die sich durch in vivo Tests herausstellende Biokompatibilität, die einfachen Herstellungsmöglichkeiten und die physikochemischen Eigenschaften empfehlen dieses Material als vielversprechenden Kandidaten für Knochenersatzmaterial in mäßig belasteten Bereichen.
