Abstract: Nonsolvent induced phase separation (NIPS) is the most common approach to produce polymeric membranes. Unfortunately, NIPS relies heavily on aprotic organic solvents like N-methyl-pyrrolidone. These solvents are unsustainable, repro-toxic for humans and are therefore becoming… read more here.

Abstract: Water-in-water (w/w) emulsions are particularly advantageous for biomedical-related applications, such as cell encapsulation, bioreactors, biocompatible storage, and processing of biomacromolecules. However, due to ultralow interfacial tension, generation and stabilization of uniform w/w droplets are challenging.… read more here.
