Preparation of microcellular polysiloxane monoliths

Microcellular polysiloxane monoliths were prepared from the continuous phase of a concentrated inverse emulsion. The formulation of the material was adapted to obtain monoliths having structural properties similar to those of common poly(styrene-co-divinylbenzene) polyHIPEs. The network was generate...

Description
Summary:Microcellular polysiloxane monoliths were prepared from the continuous phase of a concentrated inverse emulsion. The formulation of the material was adapted to obtain monoliths having structural properties similar to those of common poly(styrene-co-divinylbenzene) polyHIPEs. The network was generated by hydrosilylation reaction between a vinylsiloxane crosslinking agent and an oligomeric hydrogenosiloxane. The solids obtained were characterized by mercury porosimetry, nitrogen sorption, and SEM. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 46: 21-32, 2008
