Nonionic UCST-Type Hydrogel Materials

open access: yes, 2023
Thermoresponsive polymers undergo a phase transition upon a temperature change in a solution. Depending on which temperature the phase transition occurs in solution, two types of thermoresponsive polymers are defined: lower critical solution temperature (LCST)- and upper critical solution (UCST)-type polymers.

Synergistic Approaches in the Design and Applications of UCST Polymers

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, 2023
AbstractThis review summarizes recent progress in the synergistic design strategy for thermoresponsive polymers possessing an upper critical solution temperature (UCST) in aqueous systems. To achieve precise control of the responsive behavior of the UCST polymers, their molecular design can benefit from a synergistic effect of hydrogen bonding with ...

Influence of cyclodextrin on the UCST- and LCST-behavior of poly(2-methacrylamido-caprolactam)-co-(N,N-dimethylacrylamide)

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2014
The monomer 2-methacrylamido-caprolactam (4) was synthesized from methacryloyl chloride (3) and racemic α-amino-ε-caprolactam (2). Copolymerization of 4 with N,N-dimethylacrylamide (5) was carried out by a free-radical mechanism using 2,2’-azobis(2 ...
