Synthesis and Thermo-responsive Properties of Amino Group Terminated Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) and Sodium Alginate-g-Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)

Abstract: Amino group-terminated poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm-NH 2 ) was synthesized via a radical polymerization of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAAm) using 2-aminoethanethiol hydrochloride (AESH) as a chain transfer agent. The molecular weight of the PNIPAAm-NH 2 was controlled by changing the concentration of AESH. The LCST of the aqueous solution of PNIPAAm-NH 2 increased slightly with increasing the AESH concentration. Alginate-gPNIPAAm copolymer was synthesized by grafting PNIPAAm-NH 2 onto sodium alginate usi… Show more

“…ι-Carrageenan is comparable to DNA with respect to the linear charge density in the completely extended conformation . In aqueous solutions of several univalent electrolytes, ι-carrageenan takes a helix conformation at sufficiently low temperatures. The stability of the helix conformation of ι-carrageenan depends very strongly on the concentration of a background electrolyte. ,, For example, when the KCl concentration varies from 0.01 to 1.2 M the helix–coil transition temperature of ι-carrageenan increases from 20 to 84 °C while maintaining a constant transition enthalpy . These tendencies suggest an entropic driving force of the salt effect on the stability of the helix conformation of ι-carrageenan.…”

“…Thus, each monosaccharide unit in the ideal polysaccharide carries one sulfate group, and therefore ι‐carrageenan behaves in aqueous solution as a highly charged polyanion in the extended confirmation 3. It is known that the polysaccharide has a double helix conformation in the solid phase by X‐ray Diffraction data while in calcium salt it is converted to a three‐fold right‐handed double helix with parallel strands 4–6. In solution, ι‐carrageenan is reversibly transformed from an ordered to a disordered conformation.…”
