  • Do triblock copolymers exhibit UCST and LCST type transitions?
  • Investigations of the polymer solutions showed that the triblock copolymers exhibited both UCST and LCST type transitions. The phase transitions induced the formation of polymer aggregates below UCST and above LCST, and the aggregate structures were inverted upon heating and cooling.
  • Which polymer has an LCST?
  • Poly (N -isopropyl acrylamide) (PNIPAM) is the most widely reported polymer with an LCST, which is particularly attractive due to its sharp, environmentally-insensitive, transition at ≈32 °C however there is conflicting evidence regarding its biocompatibility.
  • What is LCST phase transition kinetics of aqueous poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) solutions?
  • LCST phase transition kinetics of aqueous poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) solutions was studied by using non-isothermal differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) and isothermal dynamic light scattering (DLS) techniques. The DSC data obtained from 5 and 10 wt% PNIPAM solutions were used in isoconversional kinetics analysis.
  • What happens if a polymer is above LCST?
  • Above the LCST, the polymer becomes more hydrophobic and the interaction between the polymer and water molecules weakens, resulting in the collapse of the hydrated layer and a decrease in the effective thickness of the polymer film (Fig. 13).
