Poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide) – poly(ethylene glycol) – poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide) as a thermoreversible gelator for topical administration
Haddow, Peter; McAuley, William; Kirton, Stewart; Cook, Michael T. (2020-05-06)Poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide) – block– poly(ethylene glycol) – block– poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide) is known to exhibit a thermally-induced solution-to-gel transition in water, which may be exploited for biomedical applications. ... -
Polymers exhibiting lower critical solution temperatures as a route to thermoreversible gelators for healthcare
Cook, Michael T.; Haddow, Peter; Kirton, Stewart; McAuley, William (2020-11-20)The ability to trigger changes to material properties with external stimuli, so-called “smart” behavior, has enabled novel technologies for a wide range of healthcare applications. Response to small changes in temperature ... -
Thermoresponsive poly(di(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate)-ran-(polyethylene glycol methacrylate) graft copolymers exhibiting temperature-dependent rheology and self-assembly
da Silva, Jéssica Bassi; Haddow, Peter; Bruschi, Marcos Luciano; Cook, Michael T. (2022-01-15)Graft copolymers with brush-type architectures are explored containing poly (ethylene glycol) methacrylates copolymerized with “thermoresponsive” monomers which impart lower critical solution temperatures to the polymer. ... -
Thermoresponsive Triblock‐Copolymers of Polyethylene Oxide and Polymethacrylates: Linking Chemistry, Nanoscale Morphology, and Rheological Properties
da Silva, Marcelo Alves; Haddow, Peter; Kirton, Stewart B.; McAuley, William J.; Porcar, Lionel; Dreiss, Cécile A.; Cook, Michael T. (2022-02-23)Abstract: Thermoreversible gels switch from a free‐flowing liquid state to an elastic gel mesophase upon warming, displaying the reverse transition upon cooling. While this phenomenon makes these advanced materials highly ...
