Photo- and Thermoinduced Sol-Gel Transitions in Blends of Azobenzene Copolymers and Pluronic Surfactants
Novel self-assembling copolymers of 4-Methacryloyloxyazobenzene and NN-dimethylacrylamide (MOAB-DMA) exhibiting a pronounced photoviscosity effects in water are described. An optimum polymer architecture corresponding to maximum contents of the azobenzene moieties that allowed for the aqueous solubi...
