Equilibrium swelling of thermo-responsive gels in mixtures of solvents

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Aleksey D. Drozdov and Jesper de Claville Christiansen from the Department of Materials and Production, Aalborg University, Fibigerstraede, Aalborg, Denmark have published the research work: Equilibrium Swelling of Thermo-Responsive Gels in Mixtures of Solvents, in the Journal: Chemistry 2022, 4, 681-700. of /2022/
• what: The authors focus on the swelling of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm) gel, because it is the most studied LCST-type gel that swells in water at temperatures below the critical temperature Tc ≈ 34 ◦ C, collapses above Tc, and demonstrates good mechanical properties below and above their volume phase . . .
