Volume phase transition in a nonionic gel

TL;DR: In this article, a nonionic Nisopropylacrylamide gel was found to undergo a discontinuous phase transition by changing a solvent composition or temperature, which is an evidence for the universality of the phase transition of polymer gels.

Thermally reversible hydrogels: II. Delivery and selective removal of substances from aqueous solutions

TL;DR: Hydrogels have been synthesized which exhibit a lower critical solution temperature (LCST) and which shrink and deswell in aquous solutions when the temperature is raised through their LCST, and how a specific binding ligand may be incorporated into the gel for selective binding (and removal or recovery) of specific solutes in aqueous solutions is shown.
