Foam formation in a PMMA-methanol system
… relevant for nanofoam formation, a novel solid-state foaming process employing PMMA and methanol was developed. The process is partly analogous to the CO2-based nanofoam development process, but experimentally more accessible. This foam and its development were characterized and important …

Solid-state Polymer Nanofoams
… work explores the fabrication and properties of solid-state polymer nanofoams. Polymer nanofoams, which are expected to be the next generation cellular materials, have attracted much attention in the past decade. Nanoscale dimension of the bubbles could potentially render the nanofoams to have …

Deformation and fracture of PMMA with application to nanofoaming and adhesive joints
… focuses on the prediction of void growth during solid state nanofoaming of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA). These predictions may contribute to the development of polymeric foams with a thermal conductivity close to that of air. The second part of the thesis explores the fracture behaviour of …
