Abstract
We present a novel manufacturing technique for generating unidirectional pores in ultraviolet (UV)-curable resins using self-assembled magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) with chain-like structures. The method utilizes two templation mechanisms for pore formation: the UV-masking effect of the MNP chains and the physical presence of MNP chains themselves. Fe

nanoparticles and PAK-01 were used as the template and UV-curable resin, respectively. Unidirectional pores formed only when resin/MNP mixtures were cured under a strong externally applied magnetic field. Water absorption tests indicated that some of the unidirectional pores were through-hole-type pores. The pores were cylindrical with an ellipsoidal cross-section. When the UV irradiation angle (
θ
) was 30°, the long and short diameters of the pores were approximately 9 and 8
$\mu$
m, respectively, before MNP removal, and 12 and 8
$\mu$
m, respectively, after removal. After MNP removal, the ellipticity of the pores in the samples increased from 1.5 to 2.4 with the increase in
θ
because of the increased UV-masking effect of the MNP chains.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
