Temperature Dependence of the Colloidal Stability of Neutral Amphiphilic Polymers in Water

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Conformation-Dependent Design of Sequences in Copolymers II

Part of the book series: Advances in Polymer Science ((POLYMER,volume 196))

Abstract

Various thermally responsive polymers and their derivatives form colloidally stable nanosized particles upon heating of their aqueous solutions. A compilation of the types of polymers reported to exhibit this behaviour is presented in this review, including poly(N-isopropylacrylamide), poly(N-vinylcaprolactam), and poly(vinyl methyl ether) together with their copolymers with either hydrophobic or hydrophilic monomers. In all cases experimental evidence is presented, together with various theoretical models. Possible mechanisms responsible for the stabilisation of these colloids are discussed.
