Abstract: Nanocomposite polyHIPE foams with open-cellular morphology were obtained using nanoparticles ($γFe_2O_3/Fe_3O_4$), surfactant (Pluronic L121) or nanoparticle/surfactant stabilized dicyclopentadiene high internal phase emulsions (DCPD HIPEs). Upon curing, cavity sizes were found to vary drastically between 950 ± 360 µm down to 7 ±3 µm de- pending on the HIPE formulations. As-obtained nanocomposite polyHIPE foams were functionalized using elemental bromine in THF. Upon bromination the nanoparticles are moved from the cavities surfaces into the bulk phase of the polymer scaffold, which affects the inductive-heating capability of the magnetic nanocomposite foams decreasing it by the factor of 2.Keywords: chemical technology, nanocomposites, bromination, microstructure, pickering HIPEs, $γFe_2O_3/Fe_3O_4$ nanoparticles, Ring Opening Metathesis Polymerization (ROMP), dicyclopentadiene, inductive heatingPublished in DKUM: 24.08.2017; Views: 1237; Downloads: 142 Full text (967,87 KB)This document has many files!
