Microgel suspensions of an Interpenetrated Polymer Network (IPN) of PNIPAM and PAAc in D2O have been investigated through dynamic light scattering as a function of temperature, pH and concentration across the Volume Phase Transition (VPT).

We study the effect of the organic co-solute trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) on the volume phase transition of microgel particles made from poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) using dynamic light scattering (DLS) and all-atom molecular dynamics (MD) simulations.

Thermoresponsive microgels undergo a volume phase transition from a swollen state under good solvent conditions to a collapsed state under poor solvent conditions. The most prominent examples of such responsive...

Thermally- and pH-responsive microgels (MGs) and hydrogels are fascinating network systems that have been applied in biomedical engineering and sensing. The volume-swelling ratio (Q) and the volume-phase transition temperatures (VPTTs)...
