Fast and Large Shrinking of Thermoresponsive Hydrogels with Phase-Separated Structures
Thermoresponsive poly(<i>N</i>-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm) hydrogels have been attracting attention in a variety of functional materials, such as biomaterials, because they exhibit a volume phase transition phenomenon near physiological temperatures. However, the slow kinetics and sma...
