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

Constrained thermoresponsive polymers – new insights into fundamentals and applications
In the last decades, numerous stimuli-responsive polymers have been developed and investigated regarding their switching properties. In particular, thermoresponsive polymers, which form a miscibility gap with the ambient solvent with a lower or upper ...
