Emulsion Templating: Porous Polymers and Beyond [PDF]
Emulsion templating presently extends far beyond the original hydrophobic porous polymers that were synthesized within surfactant-stabilized water-in-oil high internal phase emulsions (HIPEs) by us...

Assessing shear, tensile and fracture properties of macroporous nanocomposites using the Arcan test
Macroporous polymers and nanocomposites remain popular materials due to their low densities and unique interconnected pore structures. The determination of mechanical properties in relevant loading conditions, such as shear, remains largely underexplored

Synthesis of Emulsion-templated Porous Polycaprolactone [PDF]
Emulsion-templated porous materials have gained extensively in applications due to their low density and high porosity. However, by far most this type porous polymers are synthesized using conventional radical polymerization and most of the reactions are thermally initiated.

Emulsion templating: Unexpected morphology of monodisperse macroporous polymers [PDF]
We synthesised monodisperse macroporous polymers via polymerisation of water-in-monomer droplet emulsions and obtained non-spherical pores with layered pore walls. We hypothesise that this morphology is caused by surfactant diffusion and phase separation during polymerisation.We varied the surfactant mass fraction of the emulsions and polymerised the ...

Porosity in polymers and polymeric materials adds to their functionality due to achieving the desired tailored characteristics porosity offers, such as improved mass transfer through the material, improved accessibility of reactive sites, reduced overall

Tuning of Morphology and Surface Properties of Porous Silicones by Chemical Modification
The behavior of materials against water is a key element in many practical applications. Silicones are hydrophobic by nature and can be chemically modified to become hydrophilic or highly hydrophobic, while combining intrinsic surface properties with ...
