Thermoresponsive Polypeptoids [PDF]
Stimuli-responsive polymers have been widely studied in many applications such as biomedicine, nanotechnology, and catalysis. Temperature is one of the most commonly used external triggers, which can be highly controlled with excellent reversibility.

Thermoresponsive copolymer microgels
Colloidal aqueous microgels have attracted notable attention due to their possible applications in both polymer chemistry and the (bio)material sector. Due to their soft internal network structure and their response to different external stimuli, they are suitable as carrier systems for different kinds of molecules (e.g.

Thermoresponsive poly(2-oxazoline)s, polypeptoids, and polypeptides [PDF]
This review covers the recent advances in the emerging field of thermoresponsive polyamides or polymeric amides, i.e., poly(2-oxazoline)s, polypeptoids, and polypeptides, with a specific focus on structure-thermoresponsive property relationships, self ...

Thermoresponsive gelling materials constructed from natural and synthetic polymers can be used to provide triggered action and therefore customised products such as drug delivery and regenerative medicine types as well as for other industries. Some materials give Arrhenius-type viscosity changes based on coil to globule transitions. Others produce more

Characteristics of Thermoresponsive Biohydrogels
The aim of this work was the synthesis of functional hydrogel materials obtained via photopolymerization. The resulting systems were characterized in terms of chemical structure using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Subsequently, their sorption capacity and surface morphology were determined along with roughness analysis.

Thermoresponsive colloidal molecules [PDF]
We fabricated thermoresponsive colloidal molecules of ca. 250 nm size. Electron- and scanning force microscopy reveal the dumbbell-shaped morphology. The temperature dependence of the size and aspect ratio (ca. 1.4 to 1.6) is analyzed by depolarized dynamic light scattering and found to be in good agreement with microscopic evidence.

Thermoresponsive carboplatin-releasing prodrugs
Platinum-based anticancer drugs, while potent, are associated with numerous and severe side effects. Hyperthermia therapy is an effective adjuvant in anticancer treatment, however, clinically used platinum drugs have not been optimised for combination with hyperthermia.
