Anion Effect on Forward Osmosis Performance of Tetrabutylphosphonium-Based Draw Solute Having a Lower Critical Solution Temperature [PDF]

open access: yesMembranes, 2023
The applicability of ionic liquids (ILs) as the draw solute in a forward osmosis (FO) system was investigated through a study on the effect of the structural change of the anion on the FO performance.

Lower Critical Solution Temperature in Polyelectrolyte Complex Coacervates. [PDF]

open access: yesACS Macro Lett, 2019
A model linear oppositely charged polyelectrolyte complex exhibits phase separation upon heating consistent with lower critical solution temperature (LCST) behavior. The LCST coexistence curves narrow with increasing monovalent salt concentration (C s) that reduces the polymer concentration (C p) in the polymer-rich phase.

Lower Critical Solution Temperature Behavior in Polyelectrolyte Complex Coacervates. [PDF]

open access: yesMacromolecules, 2019
In light of recent experimental observations of lower critical solution temperature (LCST) in polyelectrolyte complex coacervates (Ali, S. et al. ACS Macro Lett. 2019, 8, 289-293), we explore its possible mechanisms on the basis of a slight modification of our theory (Adhikari, S. et al. J. Chem. Phys. 2018, 149, 163308). We explore the consequences of

A Comparison between the Lower Critical Solution Temperature Behavior of Polymers and Biomacromolecules

open access: yesPhyschem, 2022
All-atom molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are employed to compare the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) behaviors of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) and elastin-like polypeptides (ELPs) with the canonical Val-Pro-Gly-Val-Gly ((VPGVG)n ...
