Poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm) was grafted to dextran using ceric ion as redox initiator. The graft copolymers formed temperature responsive materials and can be used to construct polymeric micelles as drug carriers for colon-site 1 1 3 specifically delivery. The chemical structure of the gr

## Abstract Poly(__N__โisopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm) grafted dextran nanogels with dodecyl and thiol end groups have been synthesized by RAFT process. Dodecylโterminated polymers (DexPNI) can be readily dissolved in water and further self assemble into ordered stable nanostructures through direct
## Abstract **Summary:** RAFT polymerization was used to prepare PMMAโ__b__โPNIPAM copolymers. Two different chain transfer agents, tBDB and MCPDB, were used to mediate the sequential polymerizations. Micellar solutions and gels were prepared from the resulting copolymers in aqueous solution. When
