In the past several decades, aqueous polymeric dispersions prepared by means of
polymerization processes in dispersed media to produce polymeric particles having …

The conformation of polymers at interface profoundly influences the interfacial properties.
Quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) is a newly developed technique to …

We have investigated the interactions between the positively charged poly [2-
(methacryloyloxy) ethyltrimethylammonium chloride](PMETAC) brushes and the Hofmeister …

Collapse of poly (N‐isopropylacrylamide)(PNIPAM) brushes in the mixed solvent system
(water/methanol 50% v/v) is studied by in‐situ atomic‐force microscopy (AFM). PNIPAM …

The origin of poly (N-isopropylacrylamide)(PNIPAM) cononsolvency in tetrahydrofuran-water
(THF-water) mixture was studied from the point of view of mixed solvent structure. The …

The role of water/methanol clustering dynamics on thermosensitivity of poly (N-
isopropylacrylamide)(PNIPAM) chains in concentrated solutions (10 wt%) is investigated by …

We use stochastic Monte Carlo simulation following the bond fluctuation model to study the
effects of grafting density of surface-anchored initiators and solvent quality on controlled …

Co-nonsolvency occurs if a mixture of two good solvents causes the collapse or demixing of
polymers into a polymer-rich phase in a certain range of compositions of these two solvents …

Surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (SI-ATRP) has been used to grow
brushes of poly (2-(methacryloyloxy) ethyl phosphorylcholine)(PMPC) from silicon wafers …

Solvation behaviors of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) in water/methanol mixtures are
investigated by molecular dynamics simulations. The results indicate that NIPAM− solvent …
