Functionalized magnetic microspheres were prepared by anchoring cross-linked core–shell poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-acrylic acid) (P(NIPAM-co-AA)) nanoparticles onto silica-coated magnetic microspheres (Fe3O4@SiO2). First, the smaller polystyrene/P(NIPAM-co-AA) core–shell nanoparticles were synthesized through seed emulsion polymerization and adhered to the surface of amino-modified Fe3O4@SiO2 micorspheres, which were made using the modified Stöber method through electrostatic interaction under appropriate preparation conditions. An amidation reaction between the carboxylic and amino groups on the respective surfaces was then catalyzed. Finally, the novel architecture magnetic microspheres with multiresponsive functionalities were obtained, and their polymerization conditions, environmental sensitivity, and magnetic properties were discussed and optimized. The superparamagnetism and temperature/pH dual responsivity and excellent dispersibility of the P(NIPAM-co-AA) functionalized magnetic microspheres provide them with high potential to be used in the fields of controlled drug delivery, bioseparation, and catalysis.

Thermosensitive conducting composite particles were synthesized using the unsulfonated P(St-NIPAm) as a thermosensitive substrate. A series of characterizations have been performed to study the effects of thermosensitive PANI@poly (St-NIPAm) conductivity performance. Aniline diffused into P(St-NIPAm) particles in solution, and then polyaniline (PANI) was in-situ produced in P(St-NIPAm) particles through oxidation polymerization. The samples showed different particle sizes at different temperatures. The content of conducting polyaniline is dependent on NIPAm feed ratios. The particle electrical conductivity was improved with the increasing NIPAM feed ratios and exhibited thermal responsive electrical conductivity. The thermosensitive conducting composite particles will have wide applications in sensors, for example, they could be used to fabricate smart conductive gel responsive to temperature and moisture.

Hydrogel actuators that deform in response to external stimuli have promising applications in diverse fields. It is desirable to develop robust hydrogels with multiple and synergistic stimuli responsiveness. This work reports on robust poly(NIPAM-co-DMAPMA)/clay hydrogel bilayers that undergo reversible and repeatable curling/uncurling in response to pH and/or temperature changes. The bilayers are fabricated by sequential synthesis of thermoresponsive N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) and N-[3-(dimethylamino)propyl] methacrylamide (DMAPMA) monomers, which produces robust interface bonding between the layers. Different NIPAM/DMAPMA ratios were used between two gel layers to manipulate the asymmetric responsiveness, thus leading to curling/uncurling of bilayers upon exposure to stimuli. The hydrogel bilayers are fabricated into soft manipulators to grasp and release target objects by pH and temperature changes, and as artificial muscle to lift and move a hanging weight by synergistic pH and temperature stimuli. This work provides a new type of asymmetric responsive hydrogel bilayer with potential applications in biomimetic actuators.

Monodisperse poly(NIPAM-co-AAc) microgels doped with either a monocolour photoluminescent quantum dot (QD) or multiple colour QDs have been fabricated by the charge-driven introduction of cysteamine-capped CdTe QDs and the collapse of the polymer network by adjusting the pH of the solution. The photoluminescence intensity and colour of the resulting microgels can be easily adjusted by changing the content of the CA–CdTe QDs in the hybrid microgels and using single or a mixture of different-sized QDs, respectively. In addition, the microgel-encapsulated QDs showed blue shifts, owing to surface coordination by the carboxylic acid. The combined effect of electrostatic interactions and surface chelating resulted in a reduction in microgel size. By tuning the ratio of QDs with different sizes, the photoluminescence of the hybrid hydrogels could be conveniently controlled. This work provides a facile and versatile method to fabricate colour-tunable or multifunctional hybrid hydrogels with broad potential applications.

Thermally responsive copolymer P(NIPAm-co-NMA) was prepared via a radical copolymerization and spun into nanofibers using electrospinning. After thermal crosslinking, the electrospun fibers were modified using KH590 and silver nanoparticles were introduced onto the fiber surface using a chemical plating method. The electrical resistance of the composite fibers containing 65.5% of silver at different temperatures was investigated and it was found that the resistance dropped by ∼60% as the temperature increased from 42 °C to 46 °C, which is consistent with the solubility transition of PNIPAm with the change of temperature as revealed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) measurement.

Temperature-responsive macro-porous cryogels of poly( N -iospropylacryamide- co -acrylamido-2-methylpropane sulfonic acid) [P(NIPAM- co -AMPS)] were prepared through redox-initiated cryo-polymerization at −12, −18 and −24 °C. Silver or gold nanoparticles (AgNPs or AuNPs) were formed inside P(NIPAM- co -AMPS) cryogels through the thermal reduction of absorbed AgNO 3 or HAuCl 4 , resulting in hybrid cryogels immobilized with AgNPs or AuNPs. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy , thermal gravimetric analysis and X-ray diffraction confirmed the chemical composition . Cryogel morphology and nanoparticle distribution were investigated through scanning and transmission electron microscopies . By checking swelling ratio in neutral water, the temperature response of cryogels was identified. The hybrid cryogels were used as the catalysts to reduce p -nitrophenol with NaBH 4 at different temperatures and pHs. The hybrid cryogel with AuNPs had the higher catalytic activity than the counterpart hybrid cryogel with AgNPs. The catalytic activity of hybrid cryogels increased with temperature and pH. The temperature response of cryogels facilitated their isolation from the reaction mixture. Since AuNPs were fixed tightly onto the cryogel pore-wall and hardly lost, hybrid cryogels with AuNPs demonstrated no decrease in catalytic activity for 5 cycles of p -nitrophenol reduction.

The synthesis of drug delivery systems based on surface-modified mesoporous silica hollow structures remains a huge challenge. In this paper, we have obtained hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) by surfactant directed sol-gel assisted hydrothermal treatment. The MSNs have the inorganic-organic hybrid frameworks with uniform diameter distribution (260 nm), and their specific surface area, mesoporous size and pore volume are 540 m2 g−1, 3.7 nm, 0.58 cm3 g−1, respectively. It was proved that the preparation of hollow ethane-bridged nanospheres with two silicon source was due to the high crosslinking of the silicone interface and hydrothermal treatment, providing a new approach for the study of drug-loaded and controlled release behavior. Based on the synthesis of MSNs, MSNs were modified by methacryloxy propyl trimethoxyl silane (MPS) on the surface of MSNs. Then N-isopropylacryamide (NIPAM) and acrylic acid (AA) were grafted onto the surface of modified MSNs. The hollow ethane-bridged PNA–MSNs (poly (NIPAM-co-acrylic acid)-MSNs) with two silicon source were prepared successfully. Due to their distinctive hollow structure, PNA–MSNs demonstrated high drug encapsulation efficiency (70.4% ± 2.9%). The experiment results proved that the modified hollow nanoparticles not only had good biocompatibility and stability, but also possessed pH-/thermal-dual responsiveness in drug release.

Rapid and convenient wound healing is crucial for reducing potential post-traumatic wound complications. In this study, a temperature-sensitive polymer of poly-(HEMA-co-NIPAM) (PHN) was synthesized by free-radical polymerization, in which the solution quickly underwent a sol–gel transition above 29°C, thus responding to a typical body temperature and facilitating wound sealing. PHN solution incorporated with copper ions (PHN-Cu) not only exhibited excellent antibacterial properties, but also expedited wound closure and facilitated tissue angiogenesis. The in vivo and in vitro experiments showed that the PHN-Cu had a higher wound closure rate and demonstrated an ability to promote skin tissue angiogenesis. Such a versatile, convenient aqueous solution could enable nonprofessionals to promptly treat wounds in a short time after injury, thus providing suitable conditions for later treatment, and can be used as a convenient method to clean wounds.

Alginate was grafted with NIPAM and NHMAM successfully, and a new responsive copolymer, alginate-g-P(NIPAM-co-NHMAM), was obtained. A novel dual responsive polysaccharide-based aerogel with thermo/pH sensitive properties was designed from the copolymer as drug controlled release system. The chemical structure of the copolymer was characterized by FT-IR and 1 H NMR. Lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of the copolymer covered a wide temperature range from 27.6 °C to 42.2 °C, which could be adjusted with changing the ratio between NIPAM and NHMAM. The dual responsive aerogel had a three-dimensional network structure. As a drug controlled release system, the aerogel was high responsive to both temperature and pH with drug loading efficiency up to 13.24%. Above LCST, the aerogel had a faster drug release, and drug was completely released in neutral environment, while the drug release was obstructed in acid environment. Furthermore, the drug release mechanism of the aerogel was illuminated. These results indicated that the dual responsive aerogel was a promising candidate for drug carriers.

This paper describes a temperature-responsive composite nanofibrous membrane by blending of the P(NIPAM-AM-ABP) (PNAA) nanofiber and the wool keratin (WK) nanofiber. The photo crosslinkable PNAA with the LCST value of 38.1 °C was obtained by free radical copolymerization of the temperature sensitive N-Isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) monomer, the hydrophilic monomer Acrylamide (AM), and the photo crosslinkable monomer 4-Acryloyloxybenzophenone (ABP). Keratin was extracted from waste wool fiber by reduction method. The PNAA nanofiber (PNAA-NF) and the keratin nanofiber (WK-NF) were electoral spun separately by two-needle parallel spinning, and the obtained composite nanofiber membrane was then crosslinked by UV irradiation and heat treatments to prepare the PNAA/WK nanofiber membrane (PNAA/WK-NFM) with good water tolerance. The result indicated that the photo cross-linkable temperature sensitive PNAA with the LCST of 38.1 °C was successfully synthesized. The obtained PNAA/WK-NFM has a good fibrous morphology and excellent water tolerance. The composite nanofiber membrane showed good reversible temperature sensitivity and temperature responsive drug releasing property due to the PNAA. By combining of the PNAA-NF and WK-NF, the mechanical property of the PNAA/WK-NFM was greatly enhanced in both dry and wet states, and the slow drug releasing property of the membrane was further improved. In-vitro cell culture experiments indicated that the PNAA/WK-NFM has a good biocompatibility with no cytotoxicity. These findings suggested that the PNAA/WK-NFM has a potential application in temperature responsive drug releasing biomaterials.

Novel biocompatible tough hydrogels were prepared through free radical micellar polymerization of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) with ammonium persulphate (APS) as initiator, in which hydrophobic monomer stearyl acrylate (C18) underwent micellar polymerization in the presence of gelatin as emulsifier. FT-IR and DSC demonstrated the formation of co-polymer of NIPAM and C18. Swelling results indicated that hydrophobic polymer domains derived from C18 in aqueous medium acted as the physical crosslinking points by hydrophobic association. Uniaxial tensile test demonstrated the mechanical properties of hydrogels increased with increasing C18 and gelatin contents. The hydrogel exhibited low toxicity and promoted cell proliferation. The desirable toughness, low toxicity and the promoting effect of cell proliferation made the present hydrogels good candidates for tissue regeneration materials.

In this paper, poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-3-aminophenylboronic acid) (P(NIPAM-co-APBA)) copolymer films were successfully electropolymerized on the Au electrode surface. The electroactive probe ferrocene carboxylic acid (FCA) in solution showed reversible thermal-, glucose- and pH-responsive on–off cyclic voltammetric (CV) behaviors at the film electrodes. The comparative experiments demonstrated that the thermo-responsive property of the film electrode was ascribed to the PNIPAM component of the films, whereas the glucose- and pH-sensitive behaviors came from the PAPBA constituent. The reduced form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) could be electrocatalytically oxidized by FCA at the film electrodes, which would greatly amplify the multi-responsive CV signal difference between the on and off states. On the basis of these results, a binary 4-input/4-output logic circuit was fabricated with temperature, glucose, pH and NADH as inputs and the CV responses at 4 different levels as outputs. Moreover, a ternary CONSENSUS logic circuit was established on the same platform, which was the first report on the combination of ternary logic gate and bioelectrocatalysis without using enzymes. This work provided a novel idea for constructing complicated biocomputing systems by increasing the number of inputs/outputs with multi-sensitive interfaces and by designing new types of multi-valued logic gates on the basis of bioelectrocatalysis.
