The properties of N-isopropylacrylamide copolymerized with N,N-dimethyl(acrylamidopropyl)ammonium propane sulfonate [poly(NIPAM-co-DMAAPS)] prepared with various monomer ratios such as transition temperature, molecular structure, viscosity were systematically investigated in water and Zn(NO3)2 solution. Poly(NIPAM-co-DMAAPS) in water and Zn(NO3)2 solution exhibited a phase transition with a lower critical solution temperature (LCST). The higher ratio of NIPAM monomer in poly(NIPAM-co-DMAAPS), the lower the LCST of the polymer. Furthermore, the transition temperature of poly(NIPAM-co-DMAAPS) with a lower NIPAM concentration were not confirmed both in water nor Zn(NO3)2 solution. The more increase the NIPAM concentration used in the preparation, the more increase the polymer viscosity. Moreover, the more increase the adsorption amount of ions onto the gel, the more increase the polymer transmittance as well.

ABSTRACTWe investigated phase behaviors of polyimide blends such as polyethermide(PEI)/polystyrene(PS), PEI/polyamideimide(PAI), PEI/polyethyleneoxide(PEO), and PAI/PEO systems. Our sample systems exhibited lower critical solution temperature(LCST) phase behaviors. In the PEI/PS system, phase transition occurred near or above the glass transition temperature(Tg) of PS and the critical temperature of the system increased with decreasing molecular weight of PS. For PEI/PAI and PEI/PEO systems, the critical temperature of PEI/PAI system is higher than that of PEI/PEO system. Phase transition temperatures of PAI/PEO systems appeared near or below the melting point of PEO.

Tetrabutylphosphonium styrenesulfonate and its homopolymer showed a lower critical solution temperature-type phase transition in water. As the hydrophobicity of these monomeric and polymeric salts affects phase behaviour, the phase transition temperature of the polyelectrolyte was changed by the introduction of monomers having different alkyl chain length on the phosphonium cations.

AbstractThermo-sensitive polymers are of outstanding importance due to their ability to undergo controlled major changes in their properties as a response to minor modifications in temperature. The syntheses of novel polymers by grafting polysiloxane containing chlorobenzyl groups in the side chain by the homopolymerization of N,N′-dimethyl acrylamide (DMA) or the copolymerization of DMA and methyl methacrylate (MMA) using SET-LRP technique are presented. The polymers were characterized by 1H-NMR, UV, and fluorescence spectroscopy, and DSC. The thermo-sensitivity and the lower critical solution temperature (LCST), as well as the aggregation phenomena during the phase transition are evidenced by dynamic light scattering (DLS) and rheology.
