Abstract

The application of supercritical fluid (SCF) technology to high-performance polymers is becoming increasingly important as such polymers become more prevalent in industry. How fabricated parts respond to SCF environments can be critical to performance. The technology of powder precipitation of these polymers from SCF solutions is slowed by the lack of a body of knowledge regarding the solubility of main-chain aromatic polymers. Recent studies of aliphatic polymers with supercritical fluid solvents and of aromatic polymers with liquid solvents serves are reviewed. These studies and several presented applications draw attention to some industrial needs and research opportunities in the area of high-performance polymer/supercritical fluid solvent interaction.
