...) structures. The solvent evaporation-induced phase separation is implemented for the fabrication of absorbent PDMS sheets. The ternary polymer solution containing PDMS, water (nonsolvent), and three different solvents are prepared. Tetrahydrofuran, Heptane, and Toluene are the solvents explored in this study...
