TL;DR: With increasing the NIPAM dosage in the preparation of the PNIPAM shell layers, the mean diameters became larger simply, the monodispersity became better, and the thermoresponsive swelling ratio of the hydrodynamic diameters increased.

TL;DR: In this article, a novel family of monodisperse thermo-sensitive core-shell hydrogel microspheres with high monodispersity and positively thermally-responsive volume phase transition characteristics with tunable swelling kinetics was reported.

TL;DR: A green pyrolysis approach to prepare ultra-small nitrogen and sulfur-co-doped carbon dots (N,S-C-dots, QY reaches 55.7%) with precursors citric acid (CA) as carbon source and N-acetyl- l -cysteine as N and S dopant has been explored as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: In this paper, the synthesis and characterization of monodispersed thermoresponsive hydrogel microspheres with a volume phase transition driven by hydrogen bonding was reported, which were composed of poly(acrylamide-co-styrene) (poly(AAM)-co-St)) cores and poly(caroline acid) (PAAM/PAAC) based interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) shells.

TL;DR: In this paper, a semi-synthetic polymer HPMC-SA composite hydrogel with a membrane covering the semi-interpenetrating network based on a semi synthetic polymer hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) and a natural polymer sodium alginate (SA) by Ca2+ crosslinking and polyelectrolyte complexation with chitosan (CS) was presented.
