Flow Behaviors of Polymer Colloids and Curing Resins Affect Pore Diameters and Heights of Periodic Porous Polymer Films to Direct Their Surface and Optical Characteristics
Abstract:Manipulation of both
pore diameters and heights of two-dimensional
periodic porous polymer films is important to extensively control
their characteristics. However, except for using different sized colloid
templates in replication methods, an effective method that tunes these
factors has rarely been reported. We found that both parameters are
controllable by adjusting the flow behaviors of polystyrene colloids
and curing resin precursors during the preparation of phenolic resin
and poly(dimethylsiloxane) peri… Show more
