Abstract. In this study, thermotropic liquid-crystal/polymer microcapsules were produced via in situ suspension polymerization. The phase separation between cholesteryl liquid crystal (CLC) and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) in the droplets was induced by polymerization, resulting consequently in uniform liquid-crystal-containing polymer microcapsules. The phase behavior of the microcapsules was...
Thermo- and pH-sensitive comb-type graft and semi-IPN hydrogels were prepared by using alginate and poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm). Comb-type graft hydrogels are composed of crosslinked alginate network and grafted with PNIPAAm. They exhibited fast pH and thermal responses due to free and mobile graft chains. Comb-type graft hydrogels reached an equilibrium swelling and deswelling states within...
