This book discusses the synthesis of chitosan-based solid foams
using foam templating. Solid foams with pore sizes between a few
micrometres and a few millimetres are widely used in a range of
established and emerging applications, including filtration,
catalysis, sound and thermal insulation, human protection, and
tissue engineering. They are lightweight with large
surface-to-volume ratios, and have excellent mechanical, acoustic,
and thermal properties. However, most foaming processes are
extremely complex, and there remains a lack of sound scientific
understanding of-and therefore control over-the parameters that
determine the properties of the material. One route towards
tailor-made solid foams is liquid foam templating, where the liquid
foam is generated first (with the desired structure) before being
solidified into a solid foam with the desired structure. This book
describes how liquid foam templating can be used to synthesise
monodisperse solid foams as well as solid foams with a tuneable
polydispersity.
