“…Betaine polymer, which is a kind of zwitterionic polymer, has an equal number of negatively charged functional group and positively charged functional group. − Due to its structural characteristics, it has high biocompatibility with less protein adsorption − and less adherence to blood cells − and is therefore being applied to new medical materials. , The effect of the added salt on the conformation of the polymer chain in the aqueous solution is exactly opposite of that of the common ionic chain polymer: the ionic chain polymer is contracted by the added salt, , while the betaine chain polymer is extended. , A betaine polymer has temperature responsivity of an upper critical solution temperature (UCST) type − and pH-responsiveness − that vary greatly depending on the functional group of the ionic part and has a high solubility in water ,,, and is dependent on the added salt concentration, ,, regardless of the type of functional group. Utilizing its properties, it has been widely studied for gels, , micelles, , brushes, , vesicles, , surfactant, , monolayer, , etc.…”
