Abstract

Acrylate epoxy soybean oil based porous cross-linked monolith have been successfully prepared by low temperature phase separation photo initiated polymerization. Type and concentration of the photoinitiator and sample thickness on the polymerization behavior at low temperature were studied. The optimum conditions for the preparation of the sample were found out. The porous morphology was affected by monomer concentration, freezing rate and temperature of the solution. The average pore size increased with increasing solvent, decreasing freezing temperature and speed. Compress stress of porous materials was related to the pore size of porous monolith.
