Conformation of Hydrophobically Modified Thermoresponsive Poly(OEGMA-co-TFEA) across the LCST Revealed by NMR and Molecular Dynamics Studies

open access: yes, 2015
High-resolution NMR measurements and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations have been applied to the study of thermoresponsive copolymers of poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate (OEGMA) and 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl acrylate (TFEA) (poly(OEGMA-co-TFEA)

Integration of Liquid Handling Robotics, Turbidimetry, and Machine Learning Toward Inverse Design of Lower Critical Solution Temperature Polymer Formulations

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
An integrated OT‐2/plate reader platform automates LCST cloud point measurement of NIPAM‐co‐DMAEMA copolymers across high‐dimensional formulation spaces. Machine learning trained on the resulting high‐throughput datasets achieves R2 up to 0.96 and enables inverse design of polymer formulations to target transition temperatures with <1% error.

Redox Biocatalysis in Lidocaine‐Based Hydrophobic Deep Eutectic Solvents: Non‐Conventional Media Outperform Aqueous Conditions

open access: yesChemSusChem, Volume 18, Issue 6, March 15, 2025.
Two hydrophobic DESs, lidocaine/oleic acid and lidocaine/decanoic acid, were utilized as reaction media that were enzyme‐compatible and highly substrate‐solubilizer for carbonyl reduction catalyzed by horse liver alcohol dehydrogenase, focusing on the effect of water contents and on maximizing substrate loadings, which showcases for the first time the ...

Water dynamics in solutions of linear poly (N-isopropyl acrylamide) studied by 2H NMR field-cycling relaxometry

open access: yesFrontiers in Soft Matter
We use 2H nuclear magnetic resonance to study the dynamics of deuterated water in a solution of linear poly (N-isopropyl acrylamide) (pNIPAM, 4 wt%) across its coil-to-globule transition at a lower critical solubility temperature (LCST) around 32°C.

Effect of polymer concentration on the lifetime and transmittance behavior of a self-oscillating polymer chain with a high lower critical solution temperature

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2017
In this study, we investigated the lifetime and self-oscillating behavior of a polymer chain with a high lower critical solution temperature (LCST). The polymer chain comprised 4-vinyl-4´-methyl-2,2´-bipyridinebis(2,2´-bipyridine)bis(hexafluorophosphate)
