The strange case of PNIPAM: molecular answer of a thermosensitive synthetic macromolecule in water

This study, by Ester Chiessi, researcher of our Department, in collaboration with Letizia Tavagnacco ed Emanuela Zaccarelli (CNR, Istituto dei Sistemi Complessi of Rome), describes the molecular behaviour of a polymer that is largely used for its thermal responsivity in aqueous environment. The paper, published on Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics in 2018, has been selected as key scientific article contributing to excellence in science and engineering research.
