Popis: | The theory of homogeneous nucleation of bubbles is combined with an expression, for their rate of growth in elastomers to obtain approximate expressions for calculating the number of bubbles formed under a high degree of supersaturation. Experimental results are given for several elastomers with argon as the dissolved gas under a variety of foaming conditions. The theory adequately describes the manner in which the number of bubbles formed depends on the temperature, surface tension of the polymer, and permeability of the dissolved gas. |
