105 Supercritical Fluids for Polymer Foams, Scaffolds, and Organogels

Monday, November 14, 2016: 8:00 AM - 10:30 AM
Yosemite C (Hilton San Francisco Union Square)
Description:
Contributions are invited on all aspects of foaming, scaffolding and aerogel formation with the aid of supercritical or compressed fluids. Papers that describe new experimental technique; novel approaches to formation of porous matrices of homopolymers, copolymers, blends, and nanocomposites; modeling of nucleation and the dynamics of pore generation and morphology; extraction and drying of gels of different origins with supercritical fluids; adsorption, crystallization and coating processes in aerogels and the modelling of such processes are especially invited.
