Tunable Thermo-Responsive Properties of Hydroxybutyl Chitosan Oligosaccharide

Frontiers in Chemistry, 2022
In this study, a simple method was used to synthesize novel thermosensitive hydroxybutyl chitosan oligosaccharide (HBCOS) by introducing hydroxybutyl groups to C6–OH of chitosan oligosaccharide (COS) chain.

Spatiotemporal Thermal Modulation and Patterning using a Programmable 1024 Element Microheater Array. [PDF]

Adv Sci (Weinh)
Programmable microheater arrays are essential for a variety of applications. However, large arrays have thus far not been realized. We introduce a programmable 32×$\times$32 microheater array consisting of heating elements – each smaller than 300 μm$\umu{\rm m}$.

Water-Soluble Soft Nylons: Novel Class of Soft Matter Exhibiting LCST-type Thermo-Responsiveness [PDF]

High crystallinity and low solubility are inherent characteristics of polyamides. Research efforts have primarily focused on exploring their bulk properties as fibers, with less emphasis on their solution properties.

Lower critical solution temperature (LCST) phase behaviour of an ionic liquid and its control by supramolecular host–guest interactions [PDF]

, 2016
Lower critical solution temperature (LCST) phase behaviour of an imidazolium- based ionic liquid is reported, which can be controlled by concentration, the choice of cation, anion and solvent, and by supramolecular host–guest complex formation. Molecular

A structural underpinning of the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) behavior behind temperature-switchable liquids [PDF]

In this study we use state of the art x-ray scattering and molecular dynamics structural probes to carry out a careful analysis of amine-water mixtures that show the unusual lower critical solution temperature (LCST) behavior.

Degradable thermoresponsive polymers which display redox-responsive LCST Behaviour

, 2012
Disulfide linkages were introduced into poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) by the polycondensation of a RAFT-derived, telechelic macromonomer to give degradable yet vinyl-based polymers.
