Thermoresponsive gelation behavior of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)-block-poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone)-block-poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) triblock copolymers

European Polymer Journal, 2014
Abstract In this contribution, we reported the synthesis of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)- block -poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone)- block -poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM- b -PVP- b -PNIPAM) triblock copolymers through sequential reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer/macromolecular design via the interchange of xanthate (RAFT/MADIX) process ...

Micellization and phase transition behavior of thermosensitive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)–poly(ɛ-caprolactone)–poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) triblock copolymers

Polymer, 2008
Abstract Thermosensitive triblock copolymers with two hydrophilic poly( N -isopropylacrylamide) blocks flanking a central hydrophobic poly(ɛ-caprolactone) block were synthesized by atom transfer radical polymerization. Core-shell micellization of the triblock copolymers was inferred from the 1 H NMR spectra derived in two different solvent ...

The effect of pH on the LCST of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) and poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-acrylic acid)

Journal of Biomaterials Science, Polymer Edition, 2004
Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm) and poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-acrylic acid) (P(NIPAAm-co-AAc)) hydrogels are synthesized by irradiating the aqueous solutions of NIPAAm and NIPAAm/AAc with 60Co gamma-ray. The effects of pH on the swelling ratio and on the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) are studied by determining the dependence of ...

Adsorption of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) on glass substrata

Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, 2004
The adsorption of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAM), a well known thermosensitive polymer, on glass was investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The polymer was dissolved in water at low (0.02 g/L) and high (2 g/L) concentration and the tested temperatures were below (25 degrees C) and above (50 ...

Swelling kinetics of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) gel

Journal of Controlled Release, 1998
In many gel applications the swelling and shrinking kinetics are very important, e.g. in controlled/slow release, where the kinetics determined the rate of out-diffusion of the active component, and in gel extraction where the gel is swollen and shrunk several times.

The viscosity of dilute poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) dispersions

Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, 2011
The viscosity of dilute aqueous dispersions of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) microgel particles is measured by capillary viscometry. The viscosity increases with particle mass fraction and on reducing temperature, particularly below the volume phase transition temperature (VPTT) of 32 °C.

Aggregation behavior of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) microspheres

Colloids and Surfaces B: Biointerfaces, 2001
Electrophoretic mobility and aggregation in suspensions of three types of microspheres (Ms 1, Ms 2 and Ms 3) are studied at different pH, ionic strengths and temperatures of the medium. Here Ms 1 is a core particle composed of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-styrene). Ms 2 is a core-shell microsphere consisting of Ms 1 as the particle core covered with a
