<div>We demonstrated the deswelling induced morphological change in dual pH and Temperature responsive ultra-low crosslinked Poly (N-isopropyl acrylamide)-co-acrylic acid microgels. The responsivity with pH and temperature were studied by light scattering and atomic force microscopy. Light scattering data suggest that at pH 4.5 the microgels undergo multiple transitions associated with collapse of pNIPAm-rich segments and repulsion between the AAc-rich segments. The evolution of punctate structures around the periphery or throughout the whole microgels at pH 4.5 and 6.5 respectively was revealed by AFM, further illustrating the heterogeneous deswelling present in the ionized copolymer microgels.</div><div>The impact of this study and understanding how ionization state of copolymer dictates the overall structural properties of microgels will widen our understanding for their applications in biotechnology</div><div><b><br></b></div>

AbstractpH and temperature dual responsive hydrogels based on itaconic acid (IA) and N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAAm) were prepared by means of water and dioxane as mixed solvents. The chemical compositions, structures and morphologies of these hydrogels were characterized by FTIR, TGA and SEM, and their pH and temperature responsive behaviours were investigated through equilibrium swelling ratios, deswelling and reswelling kinetics. The results showed the hydrogels fabricated in this condition had expanded chain conformations and macroporous network structures, and exhibited the larger swelling ratios as well as improved deswelling/reswelling dynamics.
