Abstract
Abstract AN ULTRAMICROCELLULAR STRUCTURE, THE CELLS OF WHICH CONTAIN AN INFLATANT WHOSE PERMEABILITY COEFFICIENT FOR DIFFUSION THROUGH THE CELL WALLS IS LESS THAN THAT OF AIR, CAN BE OBTAINED BY FLASH-EXTRUDING A SOLUTION OF A POLYMER IN AN ACTIVATING LIQUID, WHICH SOLUTION ALSO CONTAINS THE INFLATANT. UPON EXTRUSION, THE CELLS OF THE STRUCTURE ARE PARTIALLY COLLAPSED BUT UNRUPTURED. UPON EXPOSURE TO AIR THE STRUCTURE SELF-INFLATES DUE TO DIFFUSION OF AIR INTO THE CELLS.
