Beschreibung
The aim of this work was to synthesize and characterize highly structured monodisperse polymer foams. The task was tackled by combining the traditional concept of emulsion templating with droplet-based microfluidics in order to first generate monodisperse water-in-monomer emulsions and to subsequently synthesize highly structured polymer foams by polymerizing the monomers. This novel technique allowed us for the first time to study systematically the structure-property relationship of the resulting polymer foams. The results are expected to give new insights about the tuning possibilities of emulsion templating and may open a new arena for tailor-made polymer foams.
