Synthesis of a new family of polymers having a polydisulfide structure can be conducted from sulfobetaine-based derivative of natural (R)-lipoic acid. A polydisulfide backbone of polymer can be depolymerized by response to external stimuli and sulfobetaine pendant groups ensure the upper critical solution temperature (UCST) behaviour temperatures t...

Multiphase systems are relevant in many fields of process engineering. For process and product design in connection with multiphase systems, knowledge on the thermophysical properties of the individual phases such as viscosity and on the interfacial tension between these is required but often lacking in literature. In the present study, the applica...

Stimuli-responsive nanoparticles are focused to promote the pathological specificity and controlled therapeutic activation in biomedicine, but the multifunctional modulation remains challenging. Herein, size and morphology switchable phototheranostic nanoparticles are developed for photoacoustic (PA) imaging-guided photothermal-chemotherapy. Multif...

The mixture of polyethyleneimine (PEI) and cinnamic acid (CA) in HEPES buffer (pH 7.0) exhibited an upper critical solution temperature in the temperature range of 20-50 °C. CA would be electrostatically conjugated with PEI and the PEI-CA conjugate is thought to act as a thermo-sensitive polymer. On the optical microscope image of PEI/CA mixture, m...

Water-miscible ionic liquids (ILs) may be salted out using kosmotropic salts such as potassium phosphate (K3PO4) to form salt–salt aqueous biphasic systems (ABS). The effect of temperature on these systems has been studied using phase diagrams and it is observed that the degree of binodal shift decreases (requiring lower IL and kosmotropic salt con...

Comb-like copolymer of N-phenyl maleimide and n-octadecyl vinyl ether was synthesized by conventional free radical solution polymerization. The molecular weight and molecular weight distribution were measured by GPC. The chemical composition of copolymer was characterized by FT-IR, 1H NMR and 13C NMR, and the results indicated that the obtained cop...
