Process for manufacture of a porous polymer from a mixture
First Claim
1. A process for the production of a porous polymer comprising the steps of:
- i) forming a mixture comprising a polymerizable component and an organic solvent wherein the polymerizable component comprises at least one macromonomer having at least one perfluoropolyether unit;
ii) polymerizing said mixture wherein immediately after the polymerization of said mixture at least a substantial proportion of said organic solvent is in the form of a discrete phase and wherein said discrete organic solvent phase forms an interpenetrating network throughout the mixture or is dispersed throughout the mixture; and
iii) removing the discrete organic solvent phase.
