Control of Stimuli Sensitivity in pH-Switchable LCST/UCST-Type Thermosensitive Dendrimers by Changing the Dendrimer Structure

Stimuli-sensitive materials, such as pH- and temperature-responsive polymers, are useful as smart materials. Phenylalanine (Phe)-modified polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers with succinic acid termini, PAMAM-Phe-Suc, have been reported as unique pH-switchable lower critical solution temperature (LCST)...
