Hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles (HMSN) have been widely studied as drug delivery carriers due to their high drug loading capacity in the internal cavity. In this study, monodisperse and temperature-responsive hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles ( [email protected] (NIPAM- co -NHMA)) were synthesized and investigated. HMSN and [email protected] (NIPAM- co -NHMA) were characterized by SEM, TEM , FT-IR, TGA, XRD and nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms. The results showed that the cross-linked temperature-sensitive polymer P(NIPAM- co -NHMA) was grafted onto the surface of HMSN. Subsequently, using puerarin (PUE) as the drug model, the results demonstrated that the [email protected] (NIPAM- co -NHMA) had an excellent loading efficiency and exhibited excellently temperature-sensitive release behavior. Furthermore, the biocompatibility and stability of HMSN and [email protected] (NIPAM- co -NHMA) were studied by MTT assay and hemolysis assay, the results indicated [email protected] (NIPAM- co -NHMA) possessed excellent biocompatibility and stability. Thus, we have successfully synthesized [email protected] (NIPAM- co -NHMA), and the drug release is temperature-responsive, which can realize controlled drug release .

A graphene oxide/poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-β-cyclodextrin) (GO/poly(NIPAM-co-β-CD)) hydrogel has been synthesized through host–guest interaction between β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and the isopropyl group of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM). The product exhibits rapid responses to the stimuli of temperature and near-infrared (NIR) irradiation, self-healing properties, and excellent mechanical properties. The host–guest interaction serves as the main physical cross-linker, while a hydrogen bond between the hydroxyl group of β-CD, GO sheets and amide group of NIPAM acts as a secondary cross-linker. The volume phase transition temperature and NIR response rate of such a hydrogel are controlled by its contents of β-CD and GO. The obtained hydrogels showing excellent properties might be applied in remote contactless control devices in advanced smart technologies. Based on the excellent characteristics of the hydrogels, remote light-controlled switches have been designed, and more applications will be explored, such as intelligent light-controlled drivers and soft robots.

Temperature-responsive P(NIPAM- co -HMAM)- b -PEO- b -P(NIPAM- co -HMAM) triblock copolymers were synthesized by an atomic transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) method without freeze–pump–thaw cycles. The composition, structure, and molecular weight of the synthesized block copolymer were characterized by 1 H NMR and GPC. The phase transitions induced by temperature for different copolymers in dilute aqueous solutions have been studied using transmittance measurements, laser particle size measurements, viscosity analysis, and surface tension measurement, which showed that the HMAM content and the PEO (or PEG) chain length in the synthesized triblock copolymer affects the copolymer’s lower critical solution temperature (LCST). The micellization behavior of each temperature-responsive triblock copolymer was investigated by fluorescence probe measurements and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), which showed that the triblock copolymers form stable micelles above the LCST. The introduction of the HMAM component and the formation of micelles represent the first steps in the development of an injectable gel that forms in situ through chemical and physical crosslinking.

Using N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) as a monomer, a core–shell material was successfully prepared via in situ polymerization on the surface of silica microspheres (named NIPAM@Sil), which acts as a hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) stationary phase. A method for the in situ polymerization of polymer monomers on a silica surface has been developed. It was shown using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) that NIPAM is evenly distributed on the surface of the silica. The synthesized NIPAM@Sil possesses a polar acylamino group arising from the polymerization of NIPAM. As demonstrated by the hydrophilicity, NIPAM@Sil showed excellent HILIC performance for the separation of hydrophilic compounds. This method provides a simple approach for the preparation of a polymer coated silica core–shell stationary phase.

Thermoresponsive P(NIPAM-AA)/Fe3O4/SiO2microspheres with surface holes serving as carriers were prepared using p-Fe3O4/SiO2microspheres with a thermoresponsive copolymer. The p-Fe3O4/SiO2microspheres was obtained using a modified Pickering method and chemical etching. The surface pore size of p-Fe3O4/SiO2microspheres was in the range of 18.3 nm~37.2 nm and the cavity size was approximately 60 nm, which are suitable for loading and transporting biological macromolecules. P(NIPAM-AA) was synthesized inside and outside of the p-Fe3O4/SiO2microspheres via atom transfer radical polymerization of NIPAM, MBA and AA. The volume phase transition temperature (VPTT) of the specifically designed P(NIPAM-AA)/Fe3O4/SiO2microspheres was 42.5 °C. The saturation magnetization of P(NIPAM-AA)/Fe3O4/SiO2microspheres was 72.7 emu/g. The P(NIPAM-AA)/Fe3O4/SiO2microspheres were used as carriers to study the loading and release behavior of BSA.

Herein, polymeric cryogels containing poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) were synthesized by cryo-polymerization at subzero temperature. The synthesized cryogels were loaded with silver and palladium nanoparticles by the chemical reduction method at room temperature using the reducing agent NaBH4. Moreover, for comparison with cryogels, pure poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) hydrogel and its silver hybrid were also prepared by the conventional method at room temperature. The chemical structure and functional group analysis of the pure cryogels was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The synthesis of hybrid cryogels was confirmed by the X-ray diffraction technique and energy dispersive X-ray. The pore size and surface morphology of the pure cryogels, their respective hybrid cryogels and of conventional hydrogels were studied by using the scanning electron microscopy technique. The hybrid cryogels were successfully used as a catalyst for the degradation of methyl orange dye. The degradation performance of the hybrid cryogels was much better than its counterpart hybrid hydrogel for methyl orange dye. The effect of temperature and amount of catalyst on catalytic performance was studied by UV-visible spectroscopy. The reduction follows pseudo-first-order reaction kinetics. In addition, the antibacterial activities of these cryogels were evaluated against Gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus, ATCC: 2593) and Gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli, ATCC: 25922). Both hybrid cryogels have shown much better antibacterial activity for these two strains of bacteria compared to pure cryogels. The results indicate that these cryogels are potential candidates for water purification systems as well as biomedical applications.

Particles with circumstance-responsive conductivity have an appealing performance in constructing sensors. Here, “smart” conducting polyaniline-doped poly(styrene-co-N-isopropylacrylamide) composite spheres, i.e. PANI/P(St-NIPAM) particles, are reported. A series of PANI/P(St-NIPAM) particles can be prepared with different ratios of N-isopropylacrylamide to monomers, i.e. N/M ratios. With the improved N/M ratios in polymerization, the amount of polyaniline (PANI) incorporating into the produced particles increased, resulting in an enhanced conductivity. With the improved N/M ratios, the hydrodynamic diameters of PANI/P(St-NIPAM) particles increased at a low temperature, whereas they decreased at a high temperature; resulting in the enhanced volume-change ability with the increasing poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) content in particles. Depending on the temperature-induced volume change, these particles exhibit “smart” conductivity in a homemade device, in which these particles can be used as a temperature-responsive conducting medium to construct an “on–off” circuit, and the switch of an LED lamp can be triggered by temperature. These particles with the smart conducting property provide wide potential applications in sensors, microelectronics, energy storage, and other fields.

As a kind of soft smart material, hydrogel actuators have extensive development prospects, but it is still difficult for these actuators to integrate multiresponsiveness, multiple remote actuation, high strength, fast responsiveness, and programmable complex deformation. Herein, we have explored an anisotropic bilayer hydrogel actuator with an Fe3O4/co-poly(isopropylacrylamide-4-benzoylphenyl acrylate) [Fe3O4/P(NIPAM-ABP)] active layer and an isotropic conductive adhesive (ICAs) passive layer based on the layer-by-layer method. Benefiting from the fibrosis and porosity of the Fe3O4/P(NIPAM-ABP) hydrogel, the ICAs-Fe3O4/P(NIPAM-ABP) hydrogel actuator has excellent mechanical strength (tensile strength of 3.1 ± 0.3 MPa) and response speed (temperature (45 °C): bending speed of 2400.3°/s; near-infrared (NIR) light: bending speed of 356.4°/s; electricity (2 V): bending speed of 180°/s; water (10 °C): recovery speed of 30.0°/s). In addition, the good photothermal properties and magnetic conductivity of Fe3O4 nanoparticles provide precise remotely controllable light- and magnetic-actuated properties for the hydrogel actuator. The Ag microsheets with excellent conductivity (1.4 × 104 S/cm) provide remotely controllable electrical-actuated property for the hydrogel actuator. Combined with the responsiveness of P(NIPAM-ABP), the actuator can achieve short-range actuation including temperature-, ethanol-, and salt-responses. More importantly, it can achieve remote actuation including light, electrical, and magnetic responses. Finally, the Fe3O4/P(NIPAM-ABP) fibers can provide excellent anisotropic structures for the actuator to achieve precise deformational programmability. Inspired by some phenomena in nature, several actuating devices with the above characteristics have been successfully developed. This study can provide a general method for multifunctional anisotropic hydrogel actuators and will provide a new strategy for exploring smart materials suitable for complex bioinspired systems.

Multi-responsive hydrogels with high strength have great significance for potential applications in smart soft devices. However, it remains a challenge to incorporate multiple responsive moieties with energy dissipation mechanisms. Herein, multi-responsive nanocomposite hydrogels with high compressive strength and toughness were synthesized via in situ copolymerization of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) and acryloyloxyethyltrimethyl ammonium chloride (DAC) in an aqueous dispersion of exfoliated LAPONITE® RDS with a minute amount of N,N′-methylenebisacrylamide (MBAA) as a crosslinker. The combined use of clay and MBAA is demonstrated to be favorable for the high strength and toughness, and helped in avoiding precipitation of clay nanosheets, which otherwise occurred upon addition of cationic DAC. The effect of the NIPAM/DAC molar ratio, MBAA and clay contents on the properties of the hydrogels has been systematically investigated. Compression tests showed a compressive strength up to 6.2 MPa, with fracture strain higher than 90%. The presence of ionic DAC moieties in the hydrogels rendered a very high swelling ratio up to 40 (g g−1). These hydrogels were responsive to temperature changes due to the presence of NIPAM units, with the transition temperature (Ttrans) dependent on the molar ratio of NIPAM and DAC monomers. The internal electrostatic repulsion of the NIPAM/DAC copolymer network changed upon exposure to solutions with different pH and/or ion strength. Cyclic swelling–shrinking was demonstrated by shuttling the gels between pure water and 0.1 mol L−1 NaCl solution.

Bamboo is a natural and renewable building material but its application has been limited due to the low dimensional stability and poor durability against mold. In this study, monomers of hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) andN-isopropyl acrylamide (NIPAM) were impregnated in bamboo to facilitate the in situ growth of poly-HEMA and NIPAM (PHN) copolymer. Prior to that, the effects of different reaction conditions, including the molar ratio of HEMA to NIPAM and their concentrations, the amount of initiator (ammonium persulfate, APS) and crosslinking agents (N,N′-Methylenebisacrylamide (MBA), and glutaric dialdehyde (GA)) on the swelling capacity of PHN were optimized. The formation of PHN was confirmed by using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis, which shows the characteristics peaks of both HEMA and NIPAM, and increased pyrolysis and glass transition temperatures, respectively. After impregnation of PHN pre-polymerization formulation to bamboo, it was observed that PHN filled most of the pits in the bamboo cell wall and formed a tight network. Moreover, the dimensional stability of PHN treated bamboo was significantly improved with an anti-swelling efficiency of 49.4% and 41.7%, respectively, after wetting–drying and soaking–drying cycles. A mold infection rate of 13.5% was observed in PHN-treated bamboo as compared to a 100% infected control group after a 30-day mold resistance test. Combined results indicate that in situ polymerization of HEMA and NIPAM in bamboo is a promising method to develop exterior used bamboo products with enhanced dimensional stability and mold resistance.

Colloidal molecules (CMs), nonspherical clusters of a small number of particles, can be used as building blocks for self-assembly applications. Here, we propose a novel one pot method for CMs synthesis. First, poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-acrylic acid) (P(NIPAM-co-AA)) microgels were prepared by soap-free emulsion polymerization as seed particles, then monomer styrene and cross-linking agent divinylbenzene (DVB) were added, which could be polymerized by the remaining free radicals on the seed surface in situ. P(NIPAM-co-AA)-PS colloidal molecules with a series of morphologies such as popcorn-like, CO2-like, NH3-like, CH4-like and so on could be obtained. The effects of satellite colloid viscosity, interfacial tension, and polymer chain mobility on the number of satellite colloid have been investigated, and the formation mechanism of CMs is proposed based on morphology evolution investigation. Compared with the existing CM synthesis techniques, our method enables fabricating CMs from vinyl monomer in a facile and efficient way, and the scientific finding regarding the CMs formation will guide the CMs fabrication toward salable and reliable direction.

Hydrogels exhibiting lower or upper critical solution temperature (LCST/UCST) behavior undergo reversible phase transitions accompanied by volumetric shrinkage or optical switching, are widely used in smart windows, anti-counterfeiting, temperature-sensitive robots, and other fields. Nevertheless, their application is restricted by single-step thermal transitions inherent to isotropic polymer networks, which makes it impossible to accomplish several temperature transitions of hydrogels. Furthermore, compared to single-stimulus response, multiple responses present additional difficulties. To address these challenges, adjustable anisotropic Poly (hydroxypropyl acrylate-co-acryloyloxyethyl trimethyl ammonium chloride)/Poly ( N -isopropyl acrylamide) (HD/NIPAM) hydrogels are prepared by limited domain swelling method. These hydrogels achieve tunable transition temperatures (−1.07°C–36.04°C) and broad transition windows (9.4°C–25.3°C) by modulating NIPAM concentration and limited thickness. Remarkably, 1 HD 20 /N 15 hydrogels exhibit exceptional time and cycle stability during their reversible transparency shift (97% to 1.8%). This performance enables applications in gradient-selective smart windows and soft thermal indicators with spatially resolved signaling. Furthermore, through the transition of matrix hydrogel (poly(hydroxypropyl acrylate-co-acryloyloxyethyl trimethyl ammonium chloride) (HD) hydrogel to poly(hydroxypropyl acrylate-co-acryloxyethyl trimethyl ammonium dysprosium thiocyanate) (HDy) hydrogel), the transition from thermal single stimulus to thermal/light dual stimulus response was achieved due to the Dy element.
