Single-chain-particles of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)

摘要

Spherical single-chain-particles of poly-(N-isopropylacrylamide) were prepared in aqueous solution above the lower critical solution temperature upon the addition of sodium dodecyl sulfate. The size of the single-chain-particles was investigated by means of transmission electron microscopy and viscosity measurements of the corresponding solutions, indicating the absence of inter-chain entanglements among the single-chain-particles.
