Abstract

The aim of this study has been to examine the possibility of preparing thermotropic aqueous gel networks that exhibit multiphase transitions in connection with changing the transparency of the system depending on temperature variation. As polymers polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and ethoxylated polydimethylsiloxane (ePS) were chosen. Thermotropic materials can be used as intelligent shadegivers.
