Impregnation of synthetic and native polymers with supercritical carbon dioxide

This lecture will focus on scCO2-impregnation of polymers. ScCO2 is used because it is non-flammable, low-priced, well-known in industry and public, non-corrosive, easy to handle and harmless. The lecture will give an overview on the "state of the art" of techniques for scCO2 assisted impregnating of polymers.
