Research Abstract

The development of monoliths with porous structure has attracted the interest of material scientists over the last decade. In this study, monoliths of thermally stable polymers have been prepared from corresponding polymer solutions by phase separation technique. Bisphenol A-type polycarbonate and syndiotactic polystyrene were used as starting polymer. We found suitable phase separation conditions to form uniform monoliths by tuning appropriate combination of mixed solvents.
