Stimuli-responsive molecular brushes
TLDR
In this paper, the authors review the general aspects of molecular brushes and polymeric responsive systems and highlight the rational approaches to induce stimuli-responsiveness in molecular brush systems, which are unique for molecular brushes since these conformational changes can be restricted to a single molecule.About:

Dualfunktional polymer brushes and dualfunktional polymer nanoreactors
TL;DR: It is proved that Hb keeps its functionality following encapsulation, and protein-containing polymer nanoreactors with dual functionality designed for peroxynitrite degradation and oxygen transport are described.

Precise Control of Thermoresponsive Properties of Polymers with Hydroxy Groups in the Side Chains
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a click reaction for 1H NMR spectroscopy and gel permeation chromatography (GPC) spectroglobalization and show that the click reaction can be used to detect the presence of 1H-NMR spectrograms.

Poly(acrylates) showing critical fluorescence change in response to heat
TL;DR: In this paper, medium to long alkyl chain acrylate monomers and a molecular rotor (MR) are bonded covalently, and examined to show unique fluorescence (FL) emission behaviors in response to heat.

John Chiefari,Y. K. Chong,Frances Ercole,Julia Krstina,Justine Leigh Jeffery,Tam P. T. Le,Roshan T. A. Mayadunne,Gordon Francis Meijs,Catherine Louise Moad,Graeme Moad,Ezio Rizzardo,San H. Thang +11 more
TL;DR: The authors proposed a reversible additive-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) method for living free-radical polymerization, which can be used with a wide range of monomers and reaction conditions and in each case it provides controlled molecular weight polymers with very narrow polydispersities.

Environment-sensitive hydrogels for drug delivery
Yong Qiu,Kinam Park +1 more
TL;DR: Development of environmentally sensitive hydrogels with a wide array of desirable properties can be made is a formidable challenge, however, if the achievements of the past can be extrapolated into the future, it is highly likely that responsive hydrogelWith such properties can been made.
