Abstract:
A process for producing porous polymer material. The method combines a polymer and water-soluble granules to form a mixture. The mixture is placed into a mold; the surface of the polymer is dissolved to cause cohesion and form a polymer structure having water-soluble granules dispersed within, and water is introduced into the inner part of the polymer structure so that the polymer is solidified and water-soluble granules are washed out to obtain a porous polymer material. According to the invention, single or multiple layers of porous polymer material with different apertures, porosities, or made with different materials, are obtained by combining different polymer materials and water-soluble granules having different particle sizes in different weight ratios.
Abstract:
A method of producing silicone foam includes the step of adding a mechanical foaming agent to uncured silicone. The mechanical foaming agent is a plurality of solid bodies insoluble in the silicone. The method also includes the steps of curing the silicone and removing the mechanical foaming agent as intact solid bodies from the silicone thereby providing a silicone foam.
Abstract:
The invention relates to expandable polyolefin particles containing expanding agents, said particles being coated with between 0.01 and 3 wt. % of a salt and/or an ester of a long-chained fatty acid, preferably with calcium stearate, in order to prevent agglutination during expansion.

The sheet has pores inside and formed with skin layers on both sides. The difference in thickness between the skin layers is not more than 50%.
Abstract:
To provide a method for manufacturing a polyimide and/or a polyamide imide porous membrane with which it is possible to prepare a varnish in which microparticles are satisfactorily dispersed, even when minute microparticles are used, and to manufacture a porous membrane using the varnish. The method for manufacturing a polyimide and/or a polyamide imide porous membrane comprises a step for preparing a porous membrane manufacturing composition containing microparticles and at least one resin component selected from the group consisting of polyamic acids, polyimides, polyamide imide precursors, polyamide imides, and polyethersulfones, the preparation step including a dispersion step for causing a slurry containing the microparticles to disperse by shear and compression or shock.
Abstract:
Provided is an oriented multilayer porous film comprising at least one layer comprising: a heat, solvent, and degradation resistant matrix polymer; a plurality of interconnecting pores; and a porosity less than 90%. The film is made by a dry and/or wet method, with its multilayer structure constructed by coextrusion, lamination, and coating. The film of this disclosure finds a wide range of applications as a permselective medium for use in energy harvesting and storage, filtration, separation and purification of gases and fluids, CO2 and volatile capture, electronics, devices, structural supports, packaging, labeling, printing, clothing, drug delivery systems, bioreactor, and the like. The film is preferably used as a separator of lithium-ion, lithium-sulfur, lithium-air, metal-air, and nonaqueous electrolyte batteries.
Abstract:
A rigid flow control device includes a porous rigid body having an outer surface and an inner surface. The body defines a flow path and is formed from a material operatively arranged with a surface energy less than that of the fluid for passively impeding an undesirable component of the fluid more than a desirable component of the fluid.
Abstract:
A thermoplastic sulfur-polymer composite comprises a thermoplastic polymer, such as polyethylene and polystyrene; and a sulfur element. Such sulfur element functions as passive sulfur filler in this composite. The thermoplastic polymer is a polymer matrix; and the sulfur filler is dispersed in the polymer matrix. There is no chemical reaction occurs after the addition of the sulfur filler into the host polymer and no chemical bond formed between the polymer and the sulfur filler. The thermoplastic sulfur-polymer composite can be a nanocomposite by either adding certain nanofillers into the composite or making the sulfur filler as sulfur nanoparticles. With its similar physical properties and lower manufacturing costs, the thermoplastic sulfur-polymer composites are good alternatives of the respective pure polymers.
