Various thermally responsive polymers and their derivatives form colloidally stable
nanosized particles upon heating of their aqueous solutions. A compilation of the types of …

It is known that linear homopolymer chains can undergo a coil-to-globule-to-precipitation
transition when the solvent quality gradually changes from good to poor. It is also known that …

The physical stability of chitosan nanoparticles cross-linked with sodium tripolyphosphate
(TPP) was investigated over a period of 1 month. Special emphasis was placed on changes …

In this work, chitosan nanoparticles were prepared by ionotropic gelation of chitosan with
tripolyphosphate (TPP). The effects of the ionic strength of the solvent employed in the …

Pectin is a polymer with well-known mucoadhesive properties. In this study, liposomes were
coated with three different types of pectin. Their properties were characterized and their …

Aqueous solutions of poly (2-oxazoline) block copolymers consisting of a 2-ethyl-2-
oxazoline block and a block consisting of a random copolymer of 2-ethyl-2-oxazoline and 2 …

The self-assembling properties of hydrophobically modified (HM) telechelic poly (N-
isopropylacrylamides)(PNIPAM) were studied in aqueous solutions of concentration ranging …

With the combination of molecular scale information from electron paramagnetic resonance
(EPR) spectroscopy and meso-/macroscopic information from various other characterization …

The thermoresponsive amphiphilic block copolymer poly (d, l‐lactic acid‐co‐glycolic acid)‐
block‐poly (ethylene glycol)‐block‐poly (d, l‐lactic acid‐co‐glycolic acid)(PLGA‐PEGn …

In dilute heteropolymer solutions, a limited number of the chains, just like proteins, could
collapse and associate to form a stable/metastable mesoglobular phase between single …
