Temperature-, pH- and CO2-Sensitive Poly(N-isopropylacryl amide-co-acrylic acid) Copolymers with High Glass Transition Temperatures

Temperature-, pH- and CO2-Sensitive Poly(N-isopropylacryl amide-co-acrylic acid) Copolymers with High Glass Transition Temperatures

A series of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-acrylic acid) (PNIPAAm-co-PAA) random copolymers were synthesized through free radical copolymerization in MeOH. The incorporation of the acrylic acid units into PNIPAAm tended to enhance the glass transition temperature (Tg), due to strong intermolecular hy...
