Synthesis and solution properties of single‐chain microgels from poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) copolymer

Abstract: "Single-chain" microgels were synthesized successfully from the cross-linkable poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) copolymer. This type of microgel has the exact chemical structure, molecular weight and molecular weight distribution of its precursor. It provides a direct way to compare the properties of linear polymers with those of their networks. The viscosity properties show that the microgels have lower critical solution temperatures (LCST) that are even higher than those of the corresponding linear copol… Show more

“…However, some members of the acrylamide polymer family with medium-volume N-substituents show temperature-dependent reversible water solubility, i.e., thermos-responsive polymers [2] . The thermal phase transition temperature, also known as cloud point (Tc), can be adjusted by transforming the N-substituent group [3][4][5][6][7] .…”
