title: Continuous process for fabrication of size controlled polyimide nanoparticles using microfluidic system.
abstract: A new strategy has been developed for continuous preparation of polyimide nanoparticles within 10 s of short residence time using a system combining a micromixer and a micro heat exchanger, where the particle size can be controlled proportionally simply by varying the concentration of poly(amic acid) (PAA).
