Abstract

High internal phase emulsions of water in cyclooctene stabilised by sorbitan monooleate (Span 80) were cured by ring-opening metathesis polymerisation to release fully open macroporous polymer foams wherein the surfactant was covalently incorporated into the poly(cyclooctene) strands via chain transfer reactions.
