چکیده
Zwitterionic polymer-based dual thermoresponsive micelles were synthesized. Structural investigations revealed that they exhibit both liquid–liquid phase separation and coil–globule transition the size scale of each is different.

Liquid marbles prepared from pH-responsive self-assembled micelles.
In this study, we report the assembly of amphiphilic polymeric micelles at the liquid/air interface to prepare liquid marbles for the first time. The polymeric micelles were synthesized from the self-assembly of a fluoropolymer, poly(styrene-co-acrylic acid-co-2,2,3,4,4,4-hexafluorobutyl methacrylate), in a selective solvent. The particle size, morphology and chemical composition of the micelle...
متن کاملHydrogen peroxide-responsive micelles self-assembled from a peroxalate ester-containing triblock copolymer.
A novel ABA triblock copolymer by using peroxalate esters as linkages was synthesized. In water, this amphiphilic copolymer self-assembled into micelles which were used as drug delivery carriers. When stimulated with hydrogen peroxide, the micelles disassembled to release drugs since the responsive peroxalate ester linkages would be cleaved after the reaction with hydrogen peroxide.
متن کاملReversible Self-Actuated Thermo-Responsive Pore Membrane
Smart membranes, which can selectively control the transfer of light, air, humidity and temperature, are important to achieve indoor climate regulation. Even though reversible self-actuation of smart membranes is desirable in large-scale, reversible self-regulation remains challenging. Specifically, reversible 100% opening/closing of pore actuation showing accurate responsiveness, reproducibili...
متن کاملSelf-Folding Thermo-Magnetically Responsive Soft Microgrippers
Hydrogels such as poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-acrylic acid) (pNIPAM-AAc) can be photopatterned to create a wide range of actuatable and self-folding microstructures. Mechanical motion is derived from the large and reversible swelling response of this cross-linked hydrogel in varying thermal or pH environments. This action is facilitated by their network structure and capacity for large strain...
متن کاملDual stimuli-responsive self-assembly transition in zwitterionic/anionic surfactant systems.
Temperature and pH responsiveness is important for biological applications in protein reconstitution, gene delivery and controlled drug release. The temperature and pH dual responsive self-assembly transition, vesicle-to-micelle transitions (VMTs) and micelle-to-vesicle transitions (MVTs), in dodecyl sulfonatebetaine (DSB)/sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate (AOT) aqueous solution are inves...
