Controllable design and modeling of gradient porous structures by phase field theory

In this study, a novel methodology for the fabrication of gradient porous structures is introduced, predicated upon the phase evolution characteristics of immiscible polymer blends. Initially, a comprehensive flow-phase field dynamics model is developed. This model couples the principles of phase field theory and the dynamics of fluid flow to the two-phase evolution process, facilitating a numerical simulation of the phase evolution. Subsequently, the phase field parameters of model are determined and combined with the temperature field, thereby enabling a targeted and controlled fabrication of gradient porous structures. Finally, the efficacy and practical applicability of the proposed methodology are substantiated through the construction of illustrative examples. This approach, as delineated herein, provides a robust framework for the efficient design and realization of intricate, interconnected gradient porous structures with potential applications in various scientific and engineering domains.
