Real-time control over and reversibility of biomolecule–surface interactions at interfaces is
an increasingly important goal for a range of scientific fields and applications. The field of …

Stimuli-responsive polymers are capable of changing their chemical and/or physical
properties in response to environmental stimuli. This unique feature has allowed stimuli …

Model surfaces with switchable functionality based on nanopatterned, thermoresponsive
poly (N-isopropylacrylamide)(PNIPAAm) brushes were fabricated using interferometric …

Osteoarthritis has been regarded as a typical lubrication deficiency related joint disease,
which is characterized by the breakdown of articular cartilage at the joint surface and the …

Applications of polymer hydrogels in separation technologies, environmental remediation,
and drug delivery require control of hydrogel transport properties that are largely governed …

Abstract Development of fast curing and easy modeling of colloidal photonic crystals is
highly desirable for various applications. Here, a novel type of injectable photonic hydrogel …

The protein resistance of poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) brushes grafted from silicon wafers
was investigated as a function of the chain molecular weight, grafting density, and …

Over the past few decades, reversible responsive polymer materials have received interest
conjointly from academia as well as industry owing to their ability to adapt to the surrounding …

Reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization in the presence of a
compound capable of both reversible chain transfer through a thiocarbonylthio moiety and …

We explore the phase behaviour, solution conformation, and interfacial properties of
bottlebrush polymers with side-chains comprised of poly (N-isopropylacrylamide)(PNIPAAM) …
