, 2019 Although the gelation process and lower critical solution temperature (LCST) behavior are well acknowledged in polymer systems, low-molecular-weight gelators (LMWGs) rarely display LCST behavior during supramolecular gelation.

Continuous refrigeration and dehumidification using the lower critical solution temperature cycle
Cell Reports Physical ScienceSummary: Certain aqueous mixtures possess a lower critical solution temperature (LCST), such that when they are heated above the LCST, they separate into a water-rich and a water-scarce phase. This separation leads to a chemical potential difference once

Mechanoactive Biomaterials for Cell–Matrix Mechanotransduction
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.The graphical abstract shows how individual triggers (force, light, or temperature) and combined optothermal or receptor‐targeted actuation induce material responses at the tissue, cellular, and receptor scales. Their spatial (global or focused) and temporal (continuous or cyclic) modulation determines the resulting mechanical output.

Poly(n-butyl methacrylate) in Ionic Liquids with Tunable Lower Critical Solution Temperatures (LCST)
, 2016 We describe the lower critical solution temperature (LCST)-type phase behavior of poly(n-butyl methacrylate) (PnBMA) (M = 13 000 and 48 000) dissolved in 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium bis{(trifluoromethyl) sulfonyl}amide ionic liquids (ILs).

Effect of Hydrophobic Interactions on Lower Critical Solution Temperature for Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-dopamine Methacrylamide) Copolymers [PDF]
, 2019 For the preparation of thermoresponsive copolymers, for e.g., tissue engineering scaffolds or drug carriers, a precise control of the synthesis parameters to set the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) is required.
