“…The most studied thermoresponsive polymers are linear polyvinyl polymers, exemplified by poly(N isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM), which has an LCST of about 32°C, close to physiological temperatures [3,12]. Other polymers with LCSTs include other poly(N-alkylacrylamides), poly(2-alkyl-2-oxazoline)s, poly(2-oxazine)s, polyethers, polyvinyl ether, poly (dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate), and poly(alkylene glycol)s [2,3].…”
