pore size

The generally accepted mechanism of pore formation in organic polymer monolihts during a typical polymerization in the presence of a precipitant is following [1,2]: The organic phase contains both monovinyl and divinyl monomers, initiator and porogenic solvent. The free-radical initiator decomposes at a particular temperature and the initiating radicals start the polymerization process in solution. Nuclei formation The polymers [...]
