    Abstract: Fluoropolymer materials containing tetrafluoroethylene monomers, such as PTFE, are significantly swollen by supercritical carbon dioxide at high temperatures and pressures. The swollen fluoropolymer is processable by molding, extrusion, and other techniques. In addition, the fluoropolymer may be sintered at significantly lower temperatures compared to a nonswollen fluoropolymer material. The melting temperature of fluorinated polymers containing tetrafluoroethylene and triflouroethylene monomers which are swollen with supercritical carbon dioxide is significantly reduced, thereby permitting manufacturing operations such as extruding and molding to be performed at lower temperatures and with reduced risk of decomposition.

    Abstract: A novel class of transparent polymeric foams from high Tg polymers comprising submicron cells and a process for their production is described. The polymers are preferably high glass transition materials and the process comprises saturating a consolidated polymer shape with an inert gas at a temperature above the glass transition temperature of the polymer and under a pressure of at least 9000 psi for a period adequate to dissolve the gas in the polymer shape and then controllably cooling the polymer shape to produce the submicron cell structure.

    Abstract: The invention relates to expandable olefin bead polymers which comprise a blowing agent with a boiling point of from −5 to 150° C., selected from the group consisting of alkanes, alkanols, ketones, ethers and esters. The particles are unfoamed and have a bulk density above 500 g/l, and can be foamed to a bulk density below 200 g/l after storage for one hour at room temperature in free contact with the atmosphere. They are prepared by impregnating polyolefin pellets in suspension in a pressure vessel with the blowing agent, cooling the batch below 100° C., reducing the pressure and isolating the particles.

    Abstract: A method of efficiently removing a low molecular weight substance from a polyimide precursor or polyimide in which the low molecular weight substance is dispersed as micro-domains, without using a large amount of an organic solvent. The method of removing a low molecular weight substance comprises subjecting either a polymer composition having a micro-domain structure made up of a continuous phase comprising a polyimide precursor and, dispersed therein, a discontinuous phase comprising a low molecular weight substance or a polyimide composition obtained from the polymer composition by converting the polyimide precursor into a polyimide to extraction with a combination of supercritical carbon dioxide and a co-solvent to thereby remove the low molecular weight substance. The co-solvent is preferably an aprotic polar solvent, more preferably a nitrogen compound solvent or a sulfur compound solvent.

    Abstract: A flexible, low density thermoplastic foam and a method for lowering the density and increasing the flexibility of a thermoplastic foam having a melting temperature and being either amorphous with a softening temperature or semicrystalline with a glass transition temperature. The method comprises the steps of (a) decreasing the pressure on the thermoplastic foam to a subatmospheric pressure, further providing that while the thermoplastic foam is under the subatmospheric pressure, the thermoplastic foam is also at a temperature in the range of less than the melting temperature and greater than the softening temperature if the thermoplastic foam is amorphous, or greater than the glass transition temperature if the thermoplastic foam is semicrystalline, whereby the thermoplastic foam expands; (b) then exposing the thermoplastic foam to a superatmospheric pressure and a secondary expansion gas for a sufficient amount of time to allow the secondary blowing gas to permeate into the thermoplastic foam; and (c) then releasing the superatmospheric pressure on the thermoplastic foam whereby the thermoplastic foam expands. With this method, it is possible to produce thermoplastic foams having densities as low as 0.008 grams/cc. Also included in this invention are insulations made from these low density foams.
