Cross-Linked Polymeric Gels and Nanocomposites: New Materials and Phenomena Enabling Technological Applications
Cross-linked gels are synthesized by homo- and copolymerization of functionalized acrylamides. The gels swell in aqueous solution, and some of them (e.g., poly(N-isopropylacrylamide (PNIPAM)) also in organic solvents of low polarity (e.g., dichloromethane), making the gels amphiphilic materials. Nan...
