“…This is because NIPAM-co-VP/30/11 has the highest hydrophobic VP content and a random distribution of VP on the chain backbone so that its contraction is hindered. The formation of such stable mesoglobules is analogous to that described by Timoshenko et al [136][137][138]. Figure 40 shows the temperature dependence of the average aggregation number (N chain ) of stable mesoglobules made of four different P(NIPAM- Fig.…”

“…Note that such long-range electrostatic interaction is difficult to handle in theory. In literature, the formation of stable mesoglobules made of neutral copolymer chains without any stabilizer has also been predicted [136][137][138]. It also should be noted that the effect of comonomer composition on chain association has not been systematically investigated.…”

“…At temperatures above the LCST, these copolymers form globular aggregates and exhibit enhanced catalytic activity in esterolysis of amphiphilic substrate in water-2-propanol mixture. The ability of thermosen-sitive polymers to form globular aggregates named mesoglobules was substantiated theoretically and shown experimentally in previous works [11][12][13][14][15]. An increase of the reaction rate due to concentration of the substrate at the hydrophobic-hydrophilic interface of aggregates is in agreement with the results of theoretical analysis by Vasilevskaya et al [16] of the role of this interface in catalytic properties of miniemulsions.…”

“…Polyelectrolytes bearing a bulky hydrophobic group show a strong tendency of intra‐ or intermolecular aggregation in polar solvent 1, 2. The aggregation of amphiphilic polymers is of growing interest with respect to biological importance and pharmaceutical or biotechnological applications 3.…”
