Control of pore structures in cross-linked polymer gels by living polymerization

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Various cross-linked polymers derived from divinyl compounds have been prepared by controlled/living radical polymerization techniques. Polymerization-induced phase separation regulates well-defined macropores in the micrometer range. Porous cross-linked polymers derived from divinylbenzene have been carbonated and activated to obtain activated carbons with high specific surface areas. Macroporous activated carbons are promising for applications to electrochemical devices.
