Polyzwitterions with LCST Side Chains: Tunable Self-Assembly [PDF]
Manipulation of self-assembly behavior of copolymers via environmental change is attractive in the fabrication of smart polymeric materials. We present tunable self-assembly behavior of graft copolymers, poly(sulfobetaine methacrylate)-graft-poly[oligo(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate)-co-di(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate] (PSBM-g-

Thermodynamic Description of the LCST of Charged Thermoresponsive Copolymers [PDF]
The dependence of the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of charged, thermosensitive copolymers on their charge fraction and the salt concentration is investigated by employing systematic cloud-point experiments and analytical theory. The latter is based on the concept of the Donnan equilibrium incorporated into a thermodynamic expansion of a ...

Thermal Conductivity of PNIPAm Hydrogels and Heat Management as Smart Windows
Though thermoresponsive lower critical solution temperature (LCST) hydrogels have attracted intense attention to be applied in smart windows, less efforts are paid on the LCST effect on the heat transfer process.

A simple linear time algorithm for the locally connected spanning tree problem on maximal planar chordal graphs [PDF]
A locally connected spanning tree (LCST) T of a graph G is a spanning tree of G such that, for each node, its neighborhood in T induces a connected sub- graph in G.

Tuning the Size of Thermoresponsive Poly(N-Isopropyl Acrylamide) Grafted Silica Microgels
Core-shell microgels were synthesized via a free radical emulsion polymerization of thermoresponsive poly-(N-isopropyl acrylamide), pNipam, on the surface of silica nanoparticles. Pure pNipam microgels have a lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of
