Sustainable polycarbonate adhesives for dry and aqueous conditions with thermoresponsive properties [PDF]

, 2019
Pressure sensitive adhesives are ubiquitous in commodity products such as tapes, bandages, labels, packaging, and insulation. With single use plastics comprising almost half of yearly plastic production, it is essential that the design, synthesis, and ...

Multicompartment thermoresponsive gels: Does the length of the hydrophobic side group matter? [PDF]

, 2012
Multicompartment thermoresponsive gels are novel materials with fascinating self-assembly and interesting applications. The aim of this study was to investigate for the first time the effect of the length of the alkyl side group of a hydrophobic monomer ...

Memory Effect in Thermoresponsive Proline‐based Polymers

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 2022
AbstractWe report that synthetic polymers consisting of L‐proline monomer units exhibit temperature‐driven aggregation in water with unprecedented hysteresis. This protein‐like behavior is robust and governed by the chirality of the proline units. It paves the way to new processes, driven by either temperature or ionic strength changes, such as a ...

Preparation and Properties of Thermoresponsive P(N-Isopropylacrylamide-co-butylacrylate) Hydrogel Materials for Smart Windows

International Journal of Polymer Science, 2019
Thermoresponsive polymers that exhibit phase transition in response to temperature change can be used as material for smart windows because they can control solar light transmission depending on the outside temperature.

Recognition-mediated hydrogel swelling controlled by interaction with a negative thermoresponsive LCST polymer [PDF]

, 2016
Most polymeric thermoresponsive hydrogels contract upon heating beyond the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of the polymers used. Herein, we report a supramolecular hydrogel system that shows the opposite temperature dependence.

Advances in thermo-responsive polymers exhibiting upper critical solution temperature (UCST)

eXPRESS Polymer Letters, 2019
Immense work has been conducted in the field of thermoresponsive polymers specifically of lower critical solution temperature (LCST) type, but upper critical solution temperature (UCST) type polymers remain a significantly unexplored domain.

Glutathione-triggered disassembly of isothermally responsive polymer nanoparticles obtained by nanoprecipitation of hydrophilic polymers [PDF]

, 2013
The encapsulation and selective delivery of therapeutic compounds within polymeric nanoparticles offers hope for the treatment of a variety of diseases. Traditional approaches to trigger selective cargo release typically rely on polymer degradation which

Increasing the Hydrophobic Component of Poloxamers and the Inclusion of Salt Extend the Release of Bupivacaine from Injectable In Situ Gels, While Common Polymer Additives Have Little Effect

Gels, 2022
Various strategies have been applied to reduce the initial burst of drug release and sustain release from poloxamer-based thermoresponsive gels. This work focussed on investigating different formulation approaches to minimise the initial burst of release

Soluplus solutions as thermothickening materials for topical drug delivery. [PDF]

, 2019
Soluplus is a pharmaceutical excipient used primarily in the manufacture of solid dispersions. The polymer also exhibits interesting rheology in aqueous solution, increasing in viscosity as the solution is warmed.
