Tailoring the LCST of Thermosensitive Hydrogel Thin Films Deposited by iCVD

Langmuir, 2014
Using the iCVD (initiated chemical vapor deposition) polymerization technique, we generated a library of thermosensitive thin film hydrogels in the physiological temperature range. The library shows how a specific hydrogel with a desired temperature response can be synthesized via the copolymerization of three main components: (a) the main ...

Thermo‐responsive albumin hydrogels with LCST near the physiological temperature

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, 2011
AbstractThis paper deals with the synthesis of thermoresponsive microspheres with proteic structure exhibiting a transition temperature close to the body temperature. The hydrogels were synthesized by free radical polymerization of methacrylate Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA‐MA) as crosslinker, and 2‐hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) and/or N ...

A Self-Oscillating Polymer Chain with High LCST

Advanced Materials Research, 2014
A novel self-oscillating polymer displaying a high lower critical solution temperature (LCST) was developed. The novel polymer chain underwent soluble-insoluble self-oscillation induced by a Belousov–Zhabotinsky reaction. The driving force of the self-oscillation was the differing solubility of the polymer chain in the reduced and oxidized states.

Modeling and Elucidating the Behavior of a Thermoresponsive LCST Ionic Liquid

Journal of Chemical Information and Modeling
Desalination of seawater by forward osmosis is a technology potentially able to address the global water scarcity problem. The major challenge limiting its widespread practical application is the design of a draw solute that can be separated from water by an energetically efficient process and then reused for the next cycle.

Gluonic and regulatory solvents and another type of LCST-transition

The Journal of Chemical Physics
Polymers in multicomponent solvents are key to understanding biomolecular condensates and promising systems for the preparation of polymer materials for achieving multi-stimuli-responsive properties. Examples of novel transition scenarios in multicomponent solvents are co-nonsolvency and the phase separation of water-soluble biomacromolecules, such as ...

Designing new LCST ionic liquids

This research addresses existing gaps in the understanding of the Lower Critical Solution Temperature (LCST) phenomenon in ionic liquid-water mixtures, with particular emphasis on developing a systematic, predictive approach to investigate this thermoresponsive behaviour. Chapter 1 introduces the LCST concept, reviews limitations in current mechanistic
