POLYOXYETHYLENE POLYOXYPROPYLENE BLOCK COPOLYMERS - A NOVEL PHASE-TRANSITION IN AQUEOUS-SOLUTIONS OF PLURONIC-F87 (POLOXAMER-237)

An unexpected phase transition in dilute aqueous solution of the nonionic surfactant poloxamer P237 (Pluronic F87), with an excess specific heat capacity maximum at 307.7 K in the concentration range 1-10 mg/ml, has been observed using high sensitivity differential scanning calorimetry (HSDSC); the...
