Abstract: A method for producing an aqueous foam comprising (a) preparing a solution comprising at least one surfactant and at least one protic polar solvent, (b) bringing the solution into contact with a pressurised gas to obtain a two-phase mixture, and (c) injecting the two-phase mixture to obtain the aqueous foam after expansion or dispersion of the gas. The solution further comprises at least one gelling compound chosen from a non-nitrogenous polysaccharide and gelatin. An aqueous foam obtained by such method and uses of the same, in particular in the fields of decontamination, the purification of effluents, or the defusing or containment of explosive devices or suspected explosive devices.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing an aqueous foam comprising the following steps: (a) preparing a solution comprising at least one surfactant and at least one protic polar solvent, (b) bringing the solution into contact with a pressurised gas, whereby a two-phase mixture is obtained, and (c) injecting the two-phase mixture, whereby, after expansion or dispersion of the gas, the aqueous foam is obtained. According to the invention, the solution further comprises at least one gelling compound chosen from a non-nitrogenous polysaccharide and gelatin. The invention also relates to the aqueous foam obtained by such a method and to the uses of same, in particular in the fields of decontamination, the purification of effluents, or the defusing or containment of explosive devices or suspected explosive devices.

Abstract: A method for preparing a polymeric material doped with at least one first metal element and at least one second metal element, including: a) copolymerization of a first monomer containing a first metal element and of a second monomer containing a chelating group of a second metal element, to obtain a polymeric material containing (i) recurrent units deriving from the polymerization of the first monomer, the recurrent units containing the first metal element and (ii) recurrent units deriving from the polymerization of the second monomer, the recurrent units containing chelating groups of a second metal element, and when the first metal element is different from the second metal element, b) contacting the material from a) with a solution containing the second metal element, in return for which the second metal element is complexed with the chelating groups, where b) is optional when the first and second metal element are identical.

Abstract: The invention relates to sulfonate compounds with the following formula (I): in which: R2 represents an ethyl group, an n-propyl group or an isopropyl group; when R2 is an ethyl group, R1 is an ethyl group, an n-propyl group or an n-butyl group; when R2 is an n-propyl group, R1 is a methyl group, an ethyl group, an n-propyl group or an n-butyl group; or when R2 is an isopropyl group, R1 is a methyl group, an ethyl group, an n-propyl group or an n-butyl group. Use of these compounds as electrolyte solvent for lithium batteries.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for preparing a polymeric material doped with at least one first metal element and at least one second metal element, said at least one first metal element and said at least one second metal element being identical or different from each other, said method comprising: a) a step for copolymerization of at least one first monomer comprising at least one first metal element and of at least one second monomer comprising at least one chelating group of at least one second metal element, in return for which a polymeric material is obtained comprising recurrent units from the polymerization of said first monomer, said recurrent units comprise said at least one first metal element and comprising recurrent units from the polymerization of said second monomer, said recurrent units comprising chelating groups of at least one second metal element; and when said first metal element is different from said second metal element, said method further comprising a step b) for putting the mat
