Well-defined porous membranes for robust omniphobic surfaces via microfluidic emulsion templating
Durability is a long-standing challenge in designing liquid-repellent surfaces. A high-performance omniphobic surface must robustly repel liquids, while maintaining mechanical/chemical stability. However, liquid repellency and mechanical durability are generally mutually exclusive properties for many omniphobic surfaces-improving one performance inevitably results in decreased performance in an...
متن کاملUniform Macroporous Ceramics and Plastics by Emulsion Templating *
Macroporous materials with uniform pore sizes in the range from 50 nm to 10 mm are predicted to have unique and highly useful properties as optical devices, specifically for use as photonic crystals with optical bandgaps. Moreover, the ability to control pore size and uniformity could produce improved filters, membrane supports, catalytic materials, and adsorbents. Nevertheless, until very rece...
متن کاملSynthesis of porous emulsion-templated polymers using high internal phase CO2-in-water emulsions.
Highly porous emulsion-templated materials were synthesized by polymerization of concentrated CO(2)-in-water (C/W) emulsions. The method does not use any organic solvents, in either the synthesis or purification steps, and no solvent residues are left in the materials. It was found that the emulsion stability is strongly affected both by the nature of the surfactant and by the viscosity of the ...
متن کاملEmulsion templating of poly(lactic acid) particles: droplet formation behavior.
Monodisperse poly(DL-lactic acid) (PLA) particles of diameters between 11 and 121 μm were fabricated in flow focusing glass microcapillary devices by evaporation of dichloromethane (DCM) from emulsion droplets at room temperature. The dispersed phase was 5% (w/w) PLA in DCM containing 0.1-2 mM Nile Red and the continuous phase was 5% (w/w) poly(vinyl alcohol) in reverse osmosis water. Particle ...
متن کاملEngineering polymeric composite particles by emulsion-templating: Thermodynamics versus Kinetics
We investigate the important factors that control the structure of polymeric particles fabricated from emulsion templates. We find that the most energetically stable structure predicted by interfacial energy analysis is not always achieved. The slow dynamic due to an increase in the viscosity of the emulsion phases prevents the polymeric particles to achieve their equilibrium structure. We devi...
