METHOD FOR PRODUCTION OF POROUS CROSS-LINKED POLYMER MATERIAL

摘要

For the production of a porous cross-linked polymer material formed of a water-in-oil high internal phase emulsion, a method is provided which comprises mixing and emulsifying an oil phase containing a monomer component and a water phase containing water thereby obtaining a water-in-oil high internal phase emulsion, partly polymerizing the resultant emulsion, imparting a prescribed shape to the partly polymerized emulsion, and subsequently causing the after-polymerization in process to be completed. This method is capable of continuously producing a porous cross-linked polymer material excelling absorption properties and mechanical strength in a short period of time.
