Abstract:The influence of poly(2-dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate (PDMAEMA) block on the thermo- and pH-responsive behavior of poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide)-block-poly[(2-dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate)] (PNIPAM-b-PDMAEMA) was studied. The block copolymers were synthesized using reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization by varying the chain length of the second block (PDMAEMA). 1H-NMR and FTIR spectra confirmed the formation of block copolymers PNIPAM21-b-PDMAEMA2 and PNIPAM21-b-PDMAEMA7 w… Show more
