The Effect of Number of Arms on the Aggregation Behavior of Thermoresponsive Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) Star Polymers
Zhu, Kaizheng; Pamies, Ramon Francisco Porras; Al-Manasir, Nodar; Hernández Cifre, José G.; De la Torre, José Garcia; Nyström, Bo; Kjøniksen, Anna-Lena (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The thermoresponsive nature of aqueous solutions of poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAM) star polymers containing 2, 3, 4, and 6 arms has been investigated by turbidity, dynamic light scattering, rheology, and rheo‐SALS. ... -
Synthesis and antimicrobial activities of chitosan/polypropylene carbonate-based nanoparticles
Quan, Zhilong; Luo, Chunyang; Zhu, Bitong; Zhao, Chungui; Yang, Mingyi; Bjørås, Magnar; Zhu, Kaizheng; Kjøniksen, Anna-Lena (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Antibiotic resistance is an emerging threat to public health. The development of a new generation of antimicrobial compounds is therefore currently required. Here we report a novel antimicrobial polymer of chitosan/polypropylene ... -
Synthesis and Characterization of a Thermoresponsive Copolymer with an LCST–UCST-like Behavior and Exhibiting Crystallization
Gjerde, Natalie Solfrid; Giudice, Alessandra Del; Zhu, Kaizheng; Knudsen, Kenneth Dahl; Galantini, Luciano; Schillén, Karin; Nyström, Bo (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)In this work, the diblock copolymer methoxy-poly(ethylene glycol)-block-poly(ε-caprolactone) (MPEG–b-PCL) was synthesized with a block composition that allows this polymer in aqueous media to possess both an upper critical ...
