The concentration and hydrophobicity-dependent hydrophobic associations are responsible
for distinct rheological behavior for associative polymers (AP) to prove its application in …

Linear poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) chains grafted with short poly (ethylene oxide) chains
(PNIPAM-g-PEO) were prepared by free radical copolymerization of NIPAM and PEO …

Three different structures were synthesized via solution free radical polymerization.
Polyacrylamides hydrophobically modified with small amounts of two different N′ N …

Summary Poly [2-(dimethylamino) ethyl methacrylate-co-2-acrylamido-2-methylpropane-1-
sulfonic acid], poly (DMAEMA-co-AMPS), hydrogels were prepared by chain polymerization …

The association behaviour of hydrophobically modified water‐soluble polymers in aqueous
solutions and its manifestation in the rheological properties are discussed. In particular …

Abstract Structure-property relationships of hydrophobic associative water soluble (co)
polymers (HAWSPs) were investigated. Different HAWSPs were prepared using a …

A novel thermothickening phenomenon exhibited by a water-soluble triblock copolymer in
salt-free aqueous solutions has been investigated through rheological measurements and …

A kind of temperature sensitive polymers of acrylamide (AM) and 3-isopropenyl-α, α-
dimethylbenzyl urethane (macromer) were synthesised by free radical aqueous solution …

In this investigation, hydrophobically modified polyacrylamide with low amounts of anionic
long‐chain alkyl was synthesized by the free radical polymerization in deionized water. This …

The effect of poly (oxyethylene), PEO, on the thermal response rate of aqueous solutions of
poly (N-isopropylacrylamide), PNIPAM, block and graft copolymers has been discussed. The …
