“…Stimuli-responsive polymers have gained great attention due to their promising applications in drug delivery, separations, filtration, smart surfaces, and regulating enzyme activity [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 ]. The stimuli can be classified as chemical stimuli, e.g., pH [ 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 ] and chemical agents [ 15 , 16 , 17 ], and physical stimuli including temperature [ 8 , 10 , 12 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 ], electric or magnetic fields [ 26 , 27 , 28 ], and mechanical stress [ 29 , 30 , 31 ]. In all these stimuli, temperature is one of the most commonly used because of its easy control [ 19 , 32 , 33 ].…”
