Monodisperse Highly Ordered Nanocomposite Foams -- General Conclusion and Outlook -- Experimental.This book discusses the synthesis of chitosan-based solid foams using foam templating. Solid foams with pore sizes between a few micrometres and a few millimetres are widely used in a range of established and emerging applications, including filtration, catalysis, sound and thermal insulation, human protection, and tissue engineering. They are lightweight with large surface-to-volume ratios, and have excellent mechanical, acoustic, and thermal properties. However, most foaming processes are extremely complex, and there remains a lack of sound scientific understanding of—and therefore control over—the parameters that determine the properties of the material. One route towards tailor-made solid foams is liquid foam templating, where the liquid foam is generated first (with the desired structure) before being solidified into a solid foam with the desired structure. This book describes how liquid foam templating can be used to synthesise monodisperse solid foams as well as solid foams with a tuneable polydispersity.Springer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,2190-5053PolymersAmorphous substancesComplex fluidsBiomaterialsEngineering—MaterialsPolymer Scienceshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C22008Soft and Granular Matter, Complex Fluids and Microfluidicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P25021Biomaterialshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z13000Materials Engineeringhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T28000Polymers.Amorphous substances.Complex fluids.Biomaterials.Engineering—Materials.Polymer Sciences.Soft and Granular Matter, Complex Fluids and Microfluidics.Biomaterials.Materials Engineering.671.8668.493Andrieux Sébastienauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut780961BOOK9910349512803321Monodisperse Highly Ordered and Polydisperse Biobased Solid Foams1668091UNINA
