Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) based hydrogel particles (microgels) crosslinked with N,N′-bis(acryloyl)cystamine were prepared using free-radical precipitation polymerization. By coating a single layer of microgels on a gold-coated glass substrate followed by the addition of another gold layer, an...

Poly (N‐isopropylacrylamide) (pNIPAm)‐based hydrogels and hydrogel particles (microgels) have been extensively studied since their discovery and “popularization” a few decades ago. While their uses seem to have no bounds, this Feature Article is focused on their development and application for...

This letter describes a new method for fabricating supramolecular microgels from supramonomers. To this end, we designed and assembled supramonomers with one acrylate moiety on each end on the basis of noncovalent host–guest interactions, which could be utilized as a cross-linker. Then...
