Kinetic gating of interfacial instability directs topology evolution in flow-regulated interfacial polymerization.
Interfacial polymerization (IP) is fundamentally governed by the reaction-induced phase separation (RIPS), a condensed chemical process that enables the fabrication of functional polymer films, microcapsules, and nanofibers. However, IP topology evolution is highly non-equilibrium, with thermodynamic phase separation a...
