“…In fact, all studies carried out at the IOEC as well as other studies on the preparation of the diverse cryogenically-structured polymer materials have always included the evaluation of various physico-chemical characteristics of the respective samples, and, very often, the dependence of their properties on the preparative conditions. The detailed discussion of the results of such studies and of the general effects thus observed for different variants of the cryostructuring processes have been presented in several comprehensive reviews published by the author of the present paper and by other scientists [ 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 20 , 22 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 40 , 44 , 63 , 66 , 82 , 94 , 125 , 142 , 143 ]. Therefore, only the key selected features of the cryostructuring mechanisms are considered below.…”
