Journal of Materials Research and Technology, 2021 Thermoresponsive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAm) microgels were synthesized via free radical polymerization using four synthesis-solvents with varying polarity index: dioxane, tetrahydrofuran (THF), toluene, and cyclohexane. Characterization by FTIR,

Oligo(ethylene glycol)-sidechain microgels prepared in absence of cross-linking agent: Polymerization, characterization and variation of particle deformability. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 We present a systematic study of self-cross-linked microgels formed by precipitation polymerization of oligo ethylene glycol methacrylates. The cross-linking density of these microgels and, thus, the network flexibility can be easily tuned through the ...
