Application
PolyNIPAM is a stimuli-responsive polymer. The low PDI means that the distribution of chain lengths is narrow which will typically lead to better reproducibility. This polymer for development of thermosensitive coated micro/nano materials including thermoresponsive polymeric drug delivery systems. The carboxylic acid functional group can be used to conjugate a variety of biomolecules to the polymer chain.
