Monodisperse poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-acrylic acid) hydrogel microspheres were prepared by a membrane emulsification method using membranes of pore diameters of 0.33, 0.73, 1.15, and 1.70 Β΅m. The hydrogels were synthesized by polymerization of 3.6 M N-isopropylacrylamide (N-IPAAm or NIPAM) and

Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm) hydrogel exhibits a response to external temperature variation and shrinks in volume abruptly as the temperature is increased above its lower critical solution temperature. It has great potential applications in biomedical fields. A rapid response rate is essent
## Abstract Poly(__N__βisopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm) copolymer gels with acidic and basic comonomers of various molar ratios were prepared by radical polymerization. The relationship between the swelling behavior of the gels and the copolymerization ratio was studied experimentally at different te
