Thermoresponsive Starch Nanoparticles for the Extraction of Bitumen from Oil Sands
Colloids and Interfaces, 2022 Starch nanoparticles (SNPs) useful for the extraction of bitumen from oil sands were obtained by modification with thermoresponsive poly(di(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate) (PMEO2MA) segments through RAFT (Reversible Addition–Fragmentation ...

Drop spreading and gelation of thermoresponsive polymers [PDF]
Soft Matter, 2018 Spreading and solidification of liquid droplets are elementary processes of relevance for additive manufacturing. With simple drop spreading experiments of a thermoresponsive polymer solution, we found that the final shape is ruled by the difference between the substrate temperature and the gelation temperature. Unexpectedly, spreading also stops below

Effect of temperature on foamability using a thermoresponsive polymer
AIP Advances, 2018 We experimentally examine foam dynamics and foamability using a thermoresponsive polymer, Poly(n-isopropylacrylamide) or PNIPAM. Under a constant gas injection, our results show that temperature significantly affects the foam height produced.

Thermoresponsive, Pyrrolidone‐Based Antifouling Polymer Brushes [PDF]
Advanced Materials Interfaces, 2022 AbstractCommonly, modification of surfaces with thermoresponsive polymers is performed using poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) (poly(NIPAM)). However, integration of poly(NIPAM) with a second polymer to obtain more complex copolymer structures has proven challenging due to inherently poorly controllable polymerization characteristics of acrylamides.
