Tacticity-Dependent Interchain Interactions of Poly(N-Isopropylacrylamide) in Water: Toward the Molecular Dynamics Simulation of a Thermoresponsive Microgel

The discovery that the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of poly(N-Isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) in water is affected by the tacticity opens the perspective to tune the volume phase transition temperature of PNIPAM microgels by changing the content of meso dyads in the polymer network. The...
