Being responsive and adaptive to external stimuli is an intrinsic feature characteristic of all
living organisms and soft matter. Specifically, responsive polymers can exhibit reversible or …

In this article we review the current state of knowledge in the field of responsive
nanoparticles for aqueous-based systems. The review focuses on the use of stimuli …

We report on reversible temperature-triggered swelling transitions in hydrogen-bonded
multilayer films of a polycarboxylic acid and stimuli-responsive block copolymer micelles …

Synthesis of novel double-hydrophilic diblock copolypeptides (BCPs), poly (l-glutamic acid)-
block-poly (N-isopropylacrylamide)(PLG n PN m), and their thermoresponsive properties in …

Critical aggregation concentration (CAC) of surfactants is lowered when polyelectrolytes act
as counterions. At a concentration in between the CACs of the surfactant and the polymer …

The area of stimuli-responsive thin polymer films (brushes, layer-by-layer multilayered
structures, networks, and hybrid systems with inorganic particles) is discussed in this article …

The review is focused on the formation and the self‐healing properties of polymer and
hybrid multilayers formed via the layer‐by‐layer approach. In the first part of the review the …

Poly (3, 4-ethylenedioxythiophene)(PEDOT) nanocapsules and mesocellular foams have
been selectively fabricated by surfactant-mediated interfacial polymerization (see Figure) …

Binary brush structures consisting of poly (cysteine methacrylate)(PCysMA)“corrals”
enclosed within poly (oligoethylene glycol methyl ether methacrylate)(POEGMA)“walls” are …

We herein report the synthesis and characterization of dual stimuli-responsive poly (2-iso-
propyl-2-oxazoline)-block-poly (2-acrylamido glycolic acid)(P i PrOx-b-PAGA) double …
