[ES] Esta tesis está centrada en la combinación de diferentes tecnologías para mejorar las tecnologías emergentes de captura y almacenamiento de carbono (CSS) y la revalorización del CO2 capturado. La principal tecnología estudiada en esta tesis fueron las membranas de transporte de oxigeno (OTMs), las cuales pueden producir oxigeno puro de forma más flexible que las actuales tecnologías de producción de oxigeno, como la destilación criogénica de aire. La producción de oxigeno puro es crucial para desarrollar reactores de oxicombustión que podrían ser mas eficientes para la captura de CO2 que los reactores actuales de combustión con aire. Los estudios sobre OTMs se dividieron en dos temas principales: membranas de bifásicas estables en CO2 y membranas basadas en BSCF (Ba1-xSrxCo1-yFeyO3-¿). Por otro lado, para la revalorización del CO2 capturado, se estudio' la tecnología de looping químico basada en catalizador de oxido de cerio, que aprovecha las propiedades redox del catalizador a diferentes pO2 y altas temperaturas (entre 700- 1400 ¿C). En general, las principales etapas limitantes en OTMs son la transferencia de oxigeno a trave's de la membrana y las reacciones superficiales. Por eso, una mejora en las propiedades de la capa catalítica podri'a mejorar la permeacio'n total de oxigeno. El primer estudio sobre membranas bifásicas se centro' el estudio de capas catali'ticas con distintas proporciones de ambas fases. Para este estudio, se selecciono' el NFO-CTO (NiFe2O4/Ce0.8Tb0.2O2-¿) como composite. Este material ya ha sido estudiado en nuestro laboratorio, y mostró una gran estabilidad en atmósferas de CO2, pero con baja permeación de O2 en comparación con otros composites. Este estudio mostró resultados interesantes, y se combino' con medidas de espectroscopia de impedancia electroqui'mica (EIS), utilizadas habitualmente para estudiar electrodos para pilas de combustible de o'xido so'lido (SOFC) y pilas de electro'lisis de o'xido so'lido (SOEC). El segundo estudio sobre composites para OTMs se centro' en el aumento de la permeacio'n de oxi'geno con composites basados en espinela-fluorita. En este caso, el transporte de oxigeno esta' controlado, adema's de por la temperatura y el gradiente de pO2, por la conductividad ambipolar, en la que intervienen las conductividades eléctrica e io'nica. Asi', se cambio' la fase de NFO por la fase de CMO (Co2MnO4) que tiene mayor conductividad total que el NFO. El composite resultante (CMO-CTO) ha mostrado un mayor rendimiento que el material predecesor NFO-CTO. Como se ha mencionado anteriormente, el otro estudio sobre OTM se realizo' con membranas basadas en BSCF. En este estudio, la membrana capilar BSCF fue electrificada para aumentar la temperatura de la membrana por efecto Joule y como consecuencia un aumento en la permeación de oxigeno. Además, se estudió este efecto bajo deshidrogenacio'n oxidativa de etano, obteniéndose una mejora importante para las membranas BSCF electrificadas en comparación con las membranas BSCF no electrificadas. Estos estudios abren las puertas al uso de ellas con reactores a más baja temperatura. El último estudio se centra en la revalorización del CO2 mediante el reformado de metano por ciclos químicos. Los ciclos químicos están basados en las propiedades redox del catalizador y las dos etapas de reducción y oxidación del catalizador. La reducción del catalizador es realizada mediante temperatura y en condiciones inertes o con corrientes reductoras como por ejemplo en metano. Los estudios se centran en la reducción a través de metano que trabaja a temperaturas más bajas que para corrientes inertes y, ademas, proporciona corrientes de syngas (mezcla de CO y H2) en la etapa de reducción del catalizador, que mejora la eficiencia global del proceso. La revalorización del CO2 se realizaba en la etapa de oxidación del catalizador. La oxidación de estos catalizadores podría formarse con flujos de H2O y/o / [CA] Aquesta tesi està centrada en la combinació de diferents tecnologies per millorar les tecnologies emergents de captura i emmagatzematge de carboni (CSS) i la revalorització del CO2 capturat. La principal tecnologia estudiada en aquesta tesi van ser les membranes de transport d'oxigen (OTMs), les quals poden produir oxigen pur de manera més flexible que les actuals tecnologies de producció d'oxigen, com la destil·lació criogènica de l'aire. La producció d'oxigen pur és crucial per al desenvolupament de reactors d'oxicombustió que podrien ser més eficients per a la captura de CO2 que els reactors actuals de combustió amb aire. Els estudis sobre OTMs es van dividir en dos temes principals: membranes composites de dos fases estables en CO2 i membranes basades en BSCF (Ba1- xSrxCo1-yFeyO3-). D'altra banda, per a la revalorització del CO2 capturat, es va estudiar la tecnologia de looping químic basada en catalitzador d'òxid de ceri, que aprofita les propietats redox del catalitzador a diferents pO2 i altes temperatures (entre 700-1400 ºC). En general, les principals etapes limitants en OTMs són la transferència d'oxigen a través de la membrana i les reaccions superficials. Per això, una millora en les propietats de la capa catalítica podria millorar la permeació total d'oxigen. El primer estudi sobre membranes bifàsiques es va centrar en l'estudi de capes catalítiques amb diferents proporcions de ambdues fases. Per a aquest estudi, es va seleccionar el NFO-CTO (NiFe2O4/Ce0.8Tb0.2O2-δ) com a composite. Aquest material ja ha sigut estudiat en el nostre laboratori, i va mostrar una gran estabilitat en atmosferes de CO2, però amb baixa permeació d'O2 en comparació amb altres composites. Aquest estudi va mostrar resultats interessants, i es va combinar amb mesures d'espectroscòpia d'impedància electroquímica (EIS), utilitzades habitualment per estudiar elèctrodes per a piles de combustible d'òxid sòlid (SOFC) i piles d'electròlisi d'òxid sòlid (SOEC). El segon estudi sobre composites per a OTMs es va centrar en l'augment de la permeació d'oxigen amb composites basats en espinela-fluorita. En aquest cas, el transport d'oxigen està controlat, a més de per la temperatura i el gradient de pO2, per la conductivitat ambipolar, en la qual intervenen les conductivitats elèctrica i iònica. Així, es va canviar la fase de NFO per la fase de CMO (Co2MnO4) que té una major conductivitat total que el NFO. El composite resultant (CMO-CTO) ha mostrat un major rendiment que el material predecessor NFO-CTO. L'últim estudi es centra en la revalorització del CO2 mitjançant el reformat de metà per cicles químics. Els cicles químics estan basats en les propietats redox del catalitzador i les dues etapes de reducció i oxidació del catalitzador. La reducció del catalitzador és realitzada mitjançant temperatura i en condicions inertes o amb corrents reductores com per exemple en metà. Els estudis se centren en la reducció a través de metà que treballa a temperatures més baixes que per a corrents inertes i, a més, proporciona corrents de syngas (barreja de CO i H2) en l'etapa de reducció del catalitzador, que millora l'eficiència global del procés. La revalorització del CO2 es realitzava en l'etapa d'oxidació del catalitzador. L'oxidació d'aquests catalitzadors podria formar-se amb fluxos de H2O i/o CO2 a altes temperatures 700- 1000 ºC. El nostre estudi es centra en òxids de ceri dopats al 10% amb elements 19Chapter 0: Preamble trivalent, generalment lantànids. En aquest estudi es va correlacionar la velocitat de splitting del CO2 en l'etapa d'oxidació amb el volum de cel·la de l'estructura cristal·lina i la conductivitat total d'aquests materials. / [EN] This thesis is focused on the combination of different technologies to improve emerging technologies for carbon capture and storage (CSS) and the revalorization of the CO2 captured. The leading technology studied in this thesis was oxygen transport membranes (OTMs) that could produce pure oxygen more flexibly than the current oxygen production technologies like cryogenic air distillation. The production of pure oxygen is crucial for developing oxycombustion reactors that could be more efficient for carbon capture than traditional combustion reactors. The OTMs studies were divided into two main topics: dual-phase membranes with stable operation in CO2 and BSCF-based membranes (Ba1-xSrxCo1-yFeyO3-¿). For the revalorization of the captured CO2, the chemical looping technology based on a cerium oxide catalyst was studied, which takes advantage of the redox properties of the catalyst at different pO2 and high temperatures (between 700-1400 ¿C). In general, the principal limiting steps for OTMs were the bulk oxygen transfer and the surface exchange reactions. In this matter, the improvement in the behaviour of the catalytic layer could achieve better oxygen permeation. The first study for dual- phase membranes was focused on the role of the different dual-phase ratios in the behaviour as a catalytic layer in OTMs. For this study, NFO-CTO (NiFe2O4/Ce0.8Tb0.2O2-¿) was selected as dual-phase material. This material was previously studied and showed high stability under CO2 environments but with poor oxygen flux compared with other dual-phase materials. The study considered for the present Thesis showed interesting results, and it was combined with electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements, commonly used to study electrodes for solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) and solid oxide electrolysis cells (SOEC). The second study in dual-phase materials for OTMs focused on the increase in oxygen permeation for spinel-fluorite-based materials. In this matter, the bulk oxygen transports are controlled, apart from the temperature and the pO2 gradient, by the ambipolar conductivity, where the electrical and the ionic conductivities are involved. So, the NFO phase was changed for the CMO phase (Co2MnO4), which has higher total conductivity than the NFO. The resultant dual- phase material (CMO-CTO) performed better than the predecessor NFO-CTO material. As mentioned previously, the other study on OTMs focused on BSCF-based membranes. In this study, the BSCF capillary membrane was electrified in order to increase the membrane temperature via the Joule effect and, as a consequence, an increase in the oxygen permeation. In addition, this effect under oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane was studied, obtaining an essential improvement for electrified BSCF membranes compared with non-electrified BSCF membranes. These studies have opened new gates to operate these membranes at lower reactor temperatures. Finally, the last study was focused on CO2 upcycling via chemical looping methane reforming. Chemical looping is based on the redox properties of the catalyst in two principal steps, reduction and oxidation of the catalyst. The catalyst reduction is performed with temperature in inert conditions or with reducing streams like methane. We were focused on the reduction via methane that works at lower temperatures than inert streams and could provide syngas streams (a mixture of CO and H2) that improve global efficiency. The revalorization of the CO2 was performed in the other step, the oxidation part of the cycle. The oxidation of those catalysts could be formed with H2O and/or CO2 streams at high temperatures of 700-1000 ¿C. Our study was focused on 10% doped cerium oxide with trivalent elements. In this study, the CO2 splitting on the oxidation step was correlated with the crystal structure parameters and the total conductivity of these materials. / Laqdiem Marín, M. (2024).

Yes / The density functional theory (DFT) based a unique model has been developed to predict the toxicity of ionic liquids using structural-feature based quantum chemical reactivity descriptors. Electrophilic indices (ω), the energy of highest occupied (EHOMO) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital, (ELUMO) and energy gap (∆ E) were selected as the best toxicity descriptors of ILs via Pearson correlation and multiple linear regression analyses. The principle components analysis (PCA) demonstrated the distribution and inter-relation of descriptors of the model. A multiple linear regression (MLR) analysis on selected descriptors derived the model equation for toxicity prediction of ionic liquids. The model predicted toxicity values and mechanism are very consistent with observed toxicity. Cationic and side chains length effect are pronounced to the toxicity of ILs. The model will provide an economic screening method to predict the toxicity of a wide range of ionic liquids and their toxicity mechanism.

La ricerca di dottorato si inserisce nel quadro delle attività della MAIER – Missione Archeologica Italiana a Hierapolis di Frigia (Pamukkale, Turchia) e nel filone degli studi di architettura antica relativi ai complessi edilizi dei centri microasiatici. Vengono analizzati, in particolare, alcuni edifici e materiali architettonici di ordine ionico emersi dalle recenti indagini di scavo, allo scopo di fornire una ricostruzione dei monumenti nella planimetria e negli alzati, ma anche delle loro funzioni e le destinazioni d’uso; parallelamente si è sviluppata l’analisi del linguaggio formale delle architetture, allo scopo sia di definire le cronologie degli edifici sia di inserirli nel più ampio fenomeno della decorazione architettonica microasiatica, rintracciandone gli eventuali modelli, anche in rapporto al complesso problema dell’attività delle maestranze, per fornire un quadro aggiornato delle modalità di impiego dell’ordine ionico a Hierapolis di Frigia nel corso dell’età imperiale. La ricerca ha affrontato i due complessi santuariali del centro cittadino: nel Santuario di Apollo vengono analizzati il Tempio C, una serie di eccezionali capitelli ionici con collarino decorato e un consistente gruppo di elementi architettonici riferibili ad un portico di temenos (di ordine corinzio); nel Ploutonion si sono indagati alcuni materiali riferibil invece ad un portico ionico, posto a coronamento del theatron rituale. / This doctoral research is part of the activities of MAIER – Italian Archaeological Mission in Hierapolis of Phrygia (Pamukkale, Turkey) and of the investigation field on the ancient architecture in Asia Minor. Some buildings and architectural blocks of Ionic order, recently discovered, are analyzed in order to achieve a reconstruction of the monuments, not only of the plan and elevation, but also of the ancient functions and use of the buildings. The stylistic analysis is also very important, to determine the chronology of the monuments and to relate the Ionic architecture of Hierapolis with the other urban centres in Asia Minor and their architectural tradition during the Imperial period. The dissertation is focused on both the sanctuaries of Hierapolis: in the Sanctuary of Apollo, the research analyzes the Temple C, a series of Ionic capitals with decorated hypotrachelion, and a group of architectural blocks from a (Corinthian) temenos portico; in the Ploutonion, the focus is on a series of blocks from an Ionic Stoa, related to the cultic theatre.

Chloride-induced corrosion of reinforcing steel in concrete is a worldwide problem. In order to predict how chlorides penetrate in concrete and how other ionic species in con-crete pore solution affect the penetration of chlorides, this thesis presents a numerical study on multi-phase modelling of ionic transport in concrete dominated by migration process. There are many advantages in rapid chloride migration test (RCM) method and numeri-cal approach. However, most of models in the literature predicting chloride diffusivity in concrete are diffusion models, which not consider the action of externally applied electric field. In view of this, the specific aim of this thesis is to develop a rational nu-merical migration model to simulate chloride migration tests. By using this model, the diffusion coefficient of chlorides in concrete will be efficiently predicted. Furthermore, other mechanisms of ionic transportation in composite materials can be scientifically in-vestigated in the meantime. In most existing work, researchers tend to use the assumption of electro-neutrality con-dition, which ensures that no external charge can be imported (Bockris and Reddy, 1998), to determine the electrostatic potential within concrete as well as considering a 1-D problem with only one phase structure and single species (i.e. the chlorides) for pre-dicting the ionic migration. In contrast, this thesis presents a number of sets of multi-phase migration models in more than one dimension and uses the Poisson’s equation for controlling the multi-species interactions. By solving both mass conservation and Pois-son’s equations, the distribution profiles of each ionic species and electrostatic potential at any required time are successfully obtained. Some significant factors, i.e. the influ-ence of dimensions, aggregates, interfacial transition zones (ITZs), cracks and binding effect have also been discussed in detail. The results reveal a series of important features which may not be seen from existing numerical models. For quantitative study, this thesis also provides the prediction method of chloride diffu-sivity not only by the traditional stationary diffusion models but also by the migration models presented in the thesis. The obtained results are compared with three proven analytical models, i.e., Maxwell’s model (Dormieux and Lemarchand, 2000), Brug-geman’s equation (Bruggeman’s, 1935) and the lower bound of the effective diffusion coefficient proposed by Li et al. (2012) as well as validated against experimental data sets of an accelerated chloride migration test (ACMT) brought by Yang and Su (2002).

L'objectif de ces travaux était de synthétiser, caractériser et étudier le potentiel d'une sélection de liquides ioniques, pour la séparation de l'éthane et de l'éthène. L'influence dans l'absorption de l'éthène de la présence de trois cations métalliques, le lithium (I), le nickel (II) et le cuivre (II) dans un liquide ionique était également étudiée. Les liquides ioniques sélectionnés sont basés sur le cation imidazolium contenant des groupes fonctionnels au niveau de la chaine alkyle latérale. Les anions choisis sont le bis(trifluorométhylsulfonyl)imide, [NTf2], la dicyanamide, [DCA] et le méthylphosphite, [C1HPO3]. Sachant qu'un solvant de séparation idéale doit avoir une capacité d'absorption et une sélectivité de séparation élevées, une faible viscosité, une haute stabilité thermique et une cinétique d'absorption rapide pour le gaz sélectionné. Pour évaluer ces propriétés pour les milieux sélectionnés, plusieurs paramètres ont été déterminés la densité et la viscosité des liquides ioniques ainsi que l'absorption de chaque gaz dans les liquides ioniques. L'absorption de l'éthane et de l'éthène dans les liquides ioniques purs ainsi que dans les solutions de liquide ionique + sel métallique a été mesurée dans une gamme de températures comprises entre 303.15 K et 353.15 K et pour des pressions proches de l'atmosphérique. La sélectivité idéale des liquides ioniques pour l'absorption de l'éthane par rapport à l'éthène a ainsi pu être déterminée. La détermination de l'absorption en fonction de la température a permis d'accéder aux propriétés thermodynamiques de solvatation de ces gaz dans des liquides ioniques et à comprendre la manière dont les liquides ioniques interagissent avec ces solutés comment les liquides ioniques se structurent autour de ces molécules / The goal of this research was to synthesize, characterize and study the potential of selected ionic liquids as solvents for the separation of ethane and ethene. The influence on ethene absorption of the presence of three different metallic cations, lithium (I), nickel (II) and copper (II) in an ionic liquid was also studied. The selected ionic liquids are based in the imidazolium cation containing a functionalization in the alkyl side chain. The chosen anions were the bis(trifluorosulfonyl)imide, [NTf2], the dicyanamide, [DCA] and the methylphosphite, [C1HPO3]. Several parameters were taken into account for this primary evaluation, such as measurements of density, viscosity and absorption of each gas in the ionic liquids, since an ideal separation solvent should have a high absorption capacity and gas selectivity, low viscosity, high thermal stability and fast absorption kinetics for the selected gas. The absorption of the 2 gases in the pure ionic liquids and ionic liquid + metallic salt solutions was measured in the temperature range between 303.15 K and 353.15 K and for pressures close to atmospheric. The ideal selectivity of the ionic liquid for the absorption of ethane compared to ethene was determined. The determination of the gas solubility in function of the temperature allowed access to the thermodynamic properties of solvation of the gases in the ionic liquids, and a deeper understanding of the gas-ionic liquid interactions and the structure of the solution

Apesar de ser utilizado há muito tempo como solvente para espécies orgânicas e inorgânicas, bem como carreador de fármacos, muitos aspectos relativos à auto-associação intermolecular do dimetil sulfóxido (DMSO) e às suas interações com espécies iônicas são ainda motivos de controvérsia na literatura. No presente estudo, a estrutura e ambiente local de dimetil sulfóxido (DMSO) em diferentes meios iônicos foram estudados por meio de três abordagens diferentes. Na primeira abordagem, o efeito de não-coincidência Raman (NCR) observado na banda atribuída ao modo ν(S=O) do DMSO, ca. 1050 cm-1, foi investigado para o líquido puro e em soluções de tetracloreto de carbono (CCl4) e água. Além disso, foi investigado o efeito de espécies iônicas (Kl, KSCN, KBr, TBAN3, TBAOCN, LiClO4, Mg(ClO4)2) na frequência ν(S=O), bem como no NCR das soluções. Os resultados de NCR juntamente com as técnicas de infravermelho, RMN e de medidas de propriedades físico-químicas mostraram que essas espécies iônicas não somente afetam a estrutura de associação do DMSO, como são capazes de interagir fortemente com o solvente. Na segunda abordagem, com a finalidade de modular as propriedades de um líquido iônico, fez-se a análise estrutural das misturas envolvendo DMSO e água como solventes e o líquido iônico EAN como soluto por meio das técnicas de espalhamento de raios-X e de nêutrons. Os resultados mostraram que a estrutura cátion-ânion do EAN é afetada pela presença de DMSO e, que em ambos os solventes são evidentes fortes ligações de hidrogênio entre o cátion EA+ e os oxigênios do solvente e do ânion nitrato. As moléculas de água não afetam drasticamente a estrutura do EAN, pois seu caráter doador/aceptor de LH e seu tamanho permite a formação de pontes entre cátion e o ânion, no entanto, EAN consegue distorcer a rede tridimensional de ligação de hidrogênio da água. Por outro lado, as moléculas de DMSO afastam os ânions da região polar do EA+ na competição pela formação de LH com o cátion e o EAN, por sua vez, provoca a ruptura das estruturas de associação do DMSO. Na terceira abordagem, misturas envolvendo três diferentes SEPs (uma classe de líquidos iônicos); Relina, MUCHCl e DMUCHCl; com DMSO foram investigadas por meio de suas propriedades físico-químicas e por espectroscopia Raman, tendo em vista modular as propriedades dos SEPs. Neste caso, os resultados não apontaram para interações fortes e específicas envolvendo as espécies iônicas e o DMSO, mas a um maior empacotamento do sistema, onde os desvios de suas propriedades físico-químicas com relação à idealidade são negativos e sua mobilidade iônica juntamente com a análise dos espectros vibracionais não evidenciaram interações específicas. No entanto, as viscosidades e densidades diminuíram nas misturas e a mobilidade iônica foi favorecida. / Although it has long been used as a solvent for organic and inorganic species, as well as drug carriers, many aspects concerning the intermolecular self-association of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and their interactions with ionic species are still controversial in the literature. In the present study, the structure and local environment of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) in different ionic media were studied using three different approaches. In the first approach, the Raman non-coincidence effect (NCE) observed in the band assigned to the DMSO ν(S = O) mode, ca. 1050 cm-1, was investigated for the pure liquid and in its solutions of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) and water. In addition, the effect of ionic species (K1, KSCN, KBr, TBAN3, TBAOCN, LiClO4, Mg (ClO4)2) on the frequency ν(S = O) as well as the NCE of the solutions were investigated. The results of NCR together with the infrared, NMR and physico-chemical properties measurements showed that these ionic species not only affect the association structure of DMSO, but are also capable of interacting strongly with the solvent. In the second approach, with the purpose of modulating the properties of an ionic liquid, the structural analysis of the mixtures involving DMSO and water as solvents and the ionic liquid EAN as a solute were carried out by X-ray and neutron scattering techniques. The results showed that the cation-anion structure of the EAN is affected by the presence of DMSO and that in both solvents strong hydrogen bonds between the EA+ cation and the oxygen from solvent and from nitrate anion are evident. The water molecules do not affect the structure of the EAN drastically, because its LH donor/acceptor character and its size allows the formation of bridges between cation and anion, however, EAN can distort the hydrogen bonding three-dimensional network in water. On the other hand, the DMSO molecules repels the anions from the polar head of EA+ in the competition in forming LH with the cation, however EAN break down DMSO association structures. In the third approach, mixtures involving three different SEPs (a class of ionic liquids); Relina, MUCHCl and DMUCHCl; with DMSO were investigated by means of their physicochemical properties and by Raman spectroscopy, in order to modulate the properties of SEPs. In this case, the results did not point to strong and specific interactions involving the ionic species and DMSO, but to a greater packaging of the system, where the deviations of its physicochemical properties with respect to the ideality are negative and its ionic mobility together with the analysis of the vibrational spectra showed no specific interactions. However, the viscosities and densities decreased in the mixtures and the ionic mobility was favored.

Purpose – To examine if there is any difference regarding performance between the two frameworks Ionic and React Native to ease decisions which one to use when developing mobile applications. Method – A comparative study with hypothesis based on earlier studies are tested with different experiments. Findings – Ionic is performing faster in the majority of the experiments, but at the same time its CPU and memory usage is higher. The results also show that React Native is struggling with larger data-sets. Implications – The study is contributing to a wider knowledge about cross-platform frameworks performance, and therefore facilitates the choice on which framework is more preferable to use. Limitations – The study only includes Ionic and React Native, and no conclusions can therefore be applied to any other cross-platform frameworks. The results are not generalizable to cross- platform native vs cross-platform hybrid, or Android vs IOS / Syfte – Studiens syfte var att undersöka om det är någon skillnad prestandamässigt mellan ramverken Ionic och React Native för att utveckla ett beslutsunderlag och underlätta val av ramverk vid utveckling av applikationer. Metod – En jämförande studie som införskaffat en teoretisk bakgrund genom en litteraturstudie, och sedan framställt hypoteser som testats genom olika experiment. Resultat – Studiens resultat visade att Ionic presterade snabbare än React Native i majoriteten av experimenten, samtidigt som CPU och minnesanvändningen var högre. Resultaten beror antagligen på hur ramverken använder sig av olika tekniker som bland annat DOM och virtuell DOM för att rendera saker på skärmen. Resultaten visar också att React Native har stora problem att rendera större datamängder då applikationen låser sig fram till dess att den lyckats rendera allt. Implikationer – Studien bidrar till att bredda kunskapsbasen och underlätta vid val mellan olika ramverk för utveckling av cross-platform applikationer. Begränsningar – Studien avhandlar bara React Native och Ionic som ramverk, inga slutsatser kan dras för skillnader mellan cross-platform native och cross-platform hybrid. Applikationerna är byggda utan tidigare erfarenhet utav ramverken.
