Abstract In 1968, Heskins and Guillet published the first systematic study of the phase
diagram of poly (N‐isopropylacrylamide)(PNIPAM), at the time a “young polymer” first …

Adaptable hydrogels have recently emerged as a promising platform for three‐dimensional
(3D) cell encapsulation and culture. In conventional, covalently crosslinked hydrogels …

Due to their similarity to some bio‐architectures, for example, extracellular matrix, hydrogels
are considered as bio‐inspired networks with bio‐mimetic and bio‐functional properties …

Thermoresponsive polymers constitute an important class of materials for biomedical
application due to their thermally reversible coil-to-globule transition which can be exploited …

Heteroatom‐containing polymers have strong potential as sustainable replacements for
petrochemicals, show controllable monomer–polymer equilibria and properties spanning …

Over the past 10 years, the grafting of polymers from the surface of cellulose nanocrystals
(CNCs) has gained substantial interest in both academia and industry due to the rapidly …

In the last past dozen years, polymersomes (Ps) have attracted tremendous attention as
versatile carriers because of their colloidal stability, tunable membrane properties and ability …

The innate ability of poly (N-isopropylacrylamide)(PNIPAAm) thermo-responsive hydrogel to
copolymerize and to graft synthetic polymers and biomolecules, in conjunction with the …

We report an in situ polymerization strategy to incorporate a thermo‐responsive polymer,
poly (N‐isopropylacrylamide)(PNIPAM), with controlled loadings into the cavity of a …

Various kinds of stimuli–responsive N-isopropylacrylamide copolymers are among an
important class of bioengineering materials that have been the subject of many extensive …
