Numerous non-ionic thermally responsive homopolymers phase separate from their
aqueous solutions upon heating. Far fewer neutral homopolymers are known to phase …

If two good solvents become poor for a polymer when mixed, the solvent pair is called a
cononsolvent pair. The sharp reentrant coil-to-globule-to-coil transition of a poly (N …

The protein resistance of poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) brushes grafted from silicon wafers
was investigated as a function of the chain molecular weight, grafting density, and …

Thermoresponsive poly ((N, N-dimethyl acrylamide)-co-(N-isopropyl acrylamide))(P (DMA-
co-NIPAM)) copolymers were synthesized via reversible addition− fragmentation chain …

The role of water/methanol clustering dynamics on thermosensitivity of poly (N-
isopropylacrylamide)(PNIPAM) chains in concentrated solutions (10 wt%) is investigated by …

The concept of cooperative dehydration, defined as the simultaneous dissociation of the
water molecules bound in correlated sequences to a polymer chain, has been applied to …

A hydrophobic tetraphenylthiophene (TP) center with novel aggregation-induced emission
(AIE) property was chemically linked to two poly (N-isoprppylacrylamide)(PNIPAM) chains to …

A series of double-hydrophilic diblock copolymers of N-acryloylmorpholine (NAMO) and N-
isopropylacrylamide (NIPAm) with varying degree of polymerization were synthesized using …

The effect of urea on the phase transition of PNIPAM was studied using differential scanning
calorimetry (DSC). For a certain urea concentration, the enthalpy change of phase transition …

The dynamics of a collapsing polymer under a temperature quench in dilute solution is
investigated by dissipative particles dynamics. Hydrodynamic interactions and many-body …
