Effect of polyHIPE porosity on its hydrodynamic properties
Polymer Testing, 2021 Several polymerized high internal phase emulsions (polyHIPE) of various porosity but the same pore diameter were prepared. It was demonstrated that the pore size distribution of void pores and interconnecting pores is similar and it can be described by a

Reusable Pd-PolyHIPE for Suzuki-Miyaura Coupling. [PDF]
ACS Omega, 2022 Palladium was immobilized on a highly porous copolymer of 4-vinylpyridine and divinylbenzene (polyHIPE-poly(high internal phase emulsion)) using palladium(II) acetate to obtain PolyPy-Pd with 6.1 wt % or 0.57 mmol Pd/g. The immobilized catalyst was able to catalyze the coupling of iodobenzene and phenylboronic acid in ethylene glycol monomethyl ether ...
