## Abstract The volume change, Δ__V__~__h__~,~,~ accompanying the hydrophobic hydration associated with the volume phase transition in Poly(__N__‐isopropylacrylamide) gels was measured by a simple method. The hydration accompanies a negative Δ__V__~__h__′~−2.5 cm^3^/mol. The __P‐T__ phase diagram,
The swelling and mechanical properties of thermally sensitive Nisopropylacrylamide (NIPA) hydrogels containing 0-35 mM sodium acrylate comonomer have been investigated at room temperature. The swelling medium is an aqueous solution with an NaCl concentration varying from 0 to 3.0 M. As the NaCl conc
