Crosslinked poly( N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPA) gels with different crosslink densities in the form of rods and beads were prepared by free-radical crosslinking copolymerization. Solution and inverse suspension polymerization techniques were used for the gel synthesis. The gels were utilized to con

## Abstract To shed new light on the mechanisms of saccharide stereochemistry effect on macromolecules in aqueous solutions, we studied the effect of three monosaccharide stereoisomers, glucose, galactose, and mannose, on the swelling of Poly(__N__βisopropylacrylamide) (PNIPA) hydrogels. We equilib
The swelling and adsorption behavior of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)-Si02 hybrid gels, derived from copolymerization of N-isopropylacrylamide and 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane (MPTMOS) and following hydrolysis and condensation, were investigated. The hybrid gels exhibited temperature dependen
The shrinking mechanism of comb-type poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (NIPA) gel was investigated by small-angle neutron scattering (SANS). The SANS reveals that the microdomain structure with characteristic spacing of 460 ( A is developed in the comb-type NIPA gel during the shrinking process. This sugg
