This review paper explores the potential of combining emulsion-based inks with additive manufacturing (AM) to produce filters for respiratory protective equipment (RPE) in fight against viral and bacterial infections tract. The value these has been highlighted by current severe acute syndrome coronavirus-2 crisis where importance health care workers cannot be overstated. Three-dimensional (3D) ...

Porous PDMS elastomers were synthesized using emulsion templated thiol–ene “click” reactions to obtain materials with tunable storage moduli at a single porosity value that achieve low sound speed values of ∼40 m s −1 .

Polymerized high internal phase emulsions (polyHIPEs) have been utilized in the creation of injectable scaffolds that cure in situ to fill irregular bone defects and potentially improve tissue healing. Previously, thermally initiated scaffolds required hours to cure, which diminished the potential for clinical translation. Here, a double-barrel syringe system for fabricating redox-initiated pol...

This work presents the first instance of reversed-phase liquid chromatographic separation of small molecules using graphene oxide nanoparticle-modified polystyrene-divinylbenzene polymeric high internal phase emulsion (GONP PS-co-DVB polyHIPE) materials housed within a 200-μm internal diameter (i.d.) fused silica capillary. The graphene oxide nanoparticle (GONP)-modified materials were produced...

A simple formulation of a stable high internal phase emulsion of dicyclopentadiene which is cured by using properly selected ring opening metathesis polymerization initiators yields highly porous monolithic materials with paramount mechanical properties and the possibility of easy functionalisation.
