Thermo responsive PVCL-co-PMMA nanofibers for controlled release of anticancer drugs were fabricated. The thermo response temperatures of the nanofibers could be easily tuned, and the fibrous shapes could be maintained after heating–cooling cycles.

There have much study about thermo-responsive nanogels,which exhibit temperature-controlled volume phase transitions.There have been few reports,however,of electrostatically neutral,thermosensitive nanogels with a high composition of hydrophilic monomer.Here,we describe the synthesis and characterization of a new class of nonionic copolymer nanogels based on N-ispropylacrylamide(NIPAM) and N,N-dimethylacrylamide(DMA),wich exhibit tunable volume phase transition temperatures.And increasing percentages of DMA in copolymer gels raises the LCST,and attenuates and broadens the volume phases transition.Through DLS, AFM and UV-Vis measurement it's size,shape and VPTTs.The character of nonionic NIPAM/DMA nanogels show it's tunable phase transitions promise to be useful for applicatipns in biotechnology and medicine.

A model is developed for equilibrium swelling of thermo-responsive copolymer gels and is applied to predict the effect of molar fraction of comonomers on the volume phase transition temperature of macroscopic gels and microgels.
