In this paper, we examine the state of the art of the physical foaming of polymers with
supercritical fluids with a primary focus on carbon dioxide. We provide a critical analysis of …

In comparison with unfoamed polymers, polymer foams find extensive application in various
civil and industrial fields such as packaging, sports equipment, absorbents, and automotive …

In this work, the effects of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) chemistry and concentration on
the cellular structure of nanocellular polymers based on poly (methyl-methacrylate)(PMMA) …

Nanocellular polymers (ie, cellular polymers with cells and walls in the nanometric range)
were first produced in the early 2000s, with the works of Yokoyama et al.[1] being the main …

Multiscale structured polymers have been considered as a promising category of functional
materials with unique properties. We combined rapid prototyping and gas foaming …

Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) foams were prepared at different saturation temperatures
using two supercritical foaming methods. The average cell size, cell number density, and …

A partially foamed lattice structure based on synthetic polymers was considered as a
functionally graded materials due to their unique properties. In this study, a copolymer is …

Solubility of gases in polymers plays a crucial role in several industrial sectors. This spans
from chemical, pharmaceutical to polymer industry. While, in last years thermodynamic …

The present work deals with the study of phosphorus flame retardant microcellular
acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene (ABS) parts and the effects of weight reduction on the fire …

In this study, a single paragraph of acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS)/recycled
polyethylene terephthalate (R-PET) polymeric foams is prepared using CO2 as a blowing …
