Design and Synthesis of Stimuli-Responsive Polymers with Programmable Cleavability by Zafar, Hadiqa

“…The fifth and final chapter reports the first “mixed” cleavable comonomer approach to degradable polymers towards a polyacrylic acid system optimized for biodegradability. A computational model offers parameters for controlling degradation fragment molecular weight and dispersity that are validated experimentally, and the material performance properties of the homopolymer are retained for its cleavable analog. …”
