Behavior of PNIPAM Microgels in Different Organic Solvents
Molecules, 2022 In this research, we studied, in detail, the behavior of common PNIPAM microgels, obtained through surfactant-free precipitation polymerization, in a number of organic solvents.

The Double-Faced Electrostatic Behavior of PNIPAm Microgels [PDF]
Polymers, 2021 PNIPAm microgels synthesized via free radical polymerization (FRP) are often considered as neutral colloids in aqueous media, although it is well known, since the pioneering works of Pelton and coworkers, that the vanishing electrophoretic mobility characterizing swollen microgels largely increases above the lower critical solution temperature (LCST ...

Optical and mechanical
Journal of Applied Polymer Science, 2022 AbstractThe aim of this study is to investigate drying, swelling, elastic properties, and to produce optical band gap energies on the performance of Poly (N‐Isopropyl acrylamide) ‐ Multi walled carbon nanotubes (PNIPAm – MWCNTs) and Poly (N‐Isopropyl acrylamide)‐ Graphene Oxide (PNIPAm‐GO) composites, respectively.

Thin films of PS/PS‐b‐pnipam and ps/pnipam polymer blends with tunable wettability [PDF]
Journal of Polymer Science Part B: Polymer Physics, 2019 ABSTRACTWe developed thin films of blends of polystyrene (PS) with the thermoresponsive polymer poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) (PS/PNIPAM) and its diblock copolymer polystyrene‐b‐poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) (PS/PS‐b‐PNIPAM) in different blend ratios, and we study their surface morphology and thermoresponsive wetting behavior.

Microfluidic devices functionalized with PNIPAm [PDF]
, 2021 In this thesis, we developed several PDMS-based microfluidic devices for emulsion generation and capillary-driven flow control. By grafting the PDMS surface with PNIPAm using UV-induced surface polymerization, we obtain a PNIPAm-g-PDMS surface with it's surface wettability that is sensitive to temperature.

Reversible Self-Actuated Thermo-Responsive Pore Membrane. [PDF]
, 2016 Smart membranes, which can selectively control the transfer of light, air, humidity and temperature, are important to achieve indoor climate regulation. Even though reversible self-actuation of smart membranes is desirable in large-scale, reversible self-
