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

Lower critical solution temperature behavior in polymer blends: compressibility and directional-specific interactions [PDF]
Lower critical solution temperature (LCST) behavior in polymer blends is shown to be the result of the compressible nature of the system, the directional-specific character of the intermolecular interactions, or a combination of both. Certain random copolymer-homopolymer blends are examples of the first possibility.

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 ...
