Thermo-responsive Diblock Copolymer Worm Gels in Non-polar Solvents
Benzyl methacrylate (BzMA) is polymerized using a poly(lauryl methacrylate) macromolecular chain transfer agent (PLMA macro-CTA) using reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization at 70 °C in n-dodecane. This choice of solvent leads to an efficient dispersion polymerization, with polymerization-induced self-assembly (PISA) occurring via the growing PBzMA block to produ...
متن کاملRheological properties of suspensions of thermo-responsive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) microgels undergoing volume phase transition
The rheological properties of suspensions of thermo-responsive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) microgels are investigated in the swollen and collapsed states using oscillatory and long-time creep measurements. In the swollen state with repulsive interparticle interaction, the zero shear viscosity and quasi-plateau modulus are solely governed by the effective volume fraction (φeff) and are ...
متن کاملPolyester textile functionalization through incorporation of pH/thermo-responsive microgels. Part II: polyester functionalization and characterization
A new approach to functionalize the surface of polyester textiles is described in this study. Functionalization was achieved by incorporating pH/temperature-responsive polyelectrolyte microgels into the textile surface layer using UV irradiation. The aim of functionalization was to regulate polyester wettability according to ambient conditions by imparting stimuli-responsiveness from the microg...
متن کاملSwelling Kinetics of Disulfide Cross-Linked Microgels
Hydrogels of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) cross-linked with N,N′-cystaminebis(acrylamide) (CBA) were prepared inside microchannels using an in situ photopolymerization for the study of chemical-responsive microgels. By chemically reducing disulfide bonds with dithiothreitol (DTT), the cross-link density of the hydrogel network decreased, leading to an observable swelling of the hydrogel. ...
متن کاملSwelling and Shrinking Properties of Thermo-Responsive Polymeric Ionic Liquid Hydrogels with Embedded Linear pNIPAAM
In this study, varying concentrations of linear pNIPAAM have been incorporated for the first time into a thermo-responsive polymeric ionic liquid (PIL) hydrogel, namely tributyl-hexyl phosphonium 3-sulfopropylacrylate (P-SPA), to produce semi-interpenetrating polymer networks. The thermal properties of the resulting hydrogels have been investigated along with their thermo-induced shrinking and ...
