Thermoresponsive polymers are a class of “smart” materials that have the ability to respond
to a change in temperature; a property that makes them useful materials in a wide range of …

Temperature variations may induce changes in solution properties for thermoresponsive
polymers, which have drawn much research attention due to their potential applications in …

This review covers the LCST behavior of two important polymer classes in aqueous solution,
namely poly (2-oxazoline) s and systems whose thermo-responsiveness is based on their …

Thermoresponsive polymers have been the subject of numerous publications and research
topics in the last few decades mostly driven by their easily controllable temperature stimulus …

This paper provides a second update to the review of reversible deactivation radical
polymerization achieved with thiocarbonylthio compounds (ZC (= S) SR) by a mechanism of …

Smart materials with the ability to repair themselves have been the focus of different fields of
science and engineering. This mini-review provides an insight into the rapidly expanding …

Over the last decade reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization
has become a powerful technique for the preparation of well-defined copolymer …

Polymers are uniquely suited for drug delivery and biomaterial applications due to tunable
structural parameters such as length, composition, architecture, and valency. To facilitate …

This work describes a study into thiol–ene based Michael addition reactions. Different
catalysts, primary and tertiary amines and phosphines, were investigated for the reaction of …

Abstract Poly (ethylene glycol)(PEG) is one of the most used polymers in medical and
biological applications. Its non-toxicity, non-immunogenicity, biocompatibility and solubility …
