Studies of new piperazine-based "stimuli" responsive polymers and hydrogels by Roshandeen, G.

“…The homopolymers of N-acryloyl-N'-methyl piperazine (AcrNMP), N-acryloyl-N' -ethyl piperazine (AcrNEP) and N-acryloyl-N'-propyl piperazine (AcrNPP) were all highly soluble in water. Interestingly, only poly (AcrNPP) showed lower critical solution temperature (LCST) phenomenon with the phase transition temperature at 37 °C. …”
