Poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) based microgels and their assemblies for organic molecule removal from water
DownloadSpring 2012
This dissertation focuses on the application of poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) (pNIPAm) microgels and their assemblies for the removal of an azo dye molecule, Orange II, from water. Chapter 1 gives an overview of the different techniques that are used for water treatment and remediation. Chapter 2...

Parasuraman, Deepika, Leung, Edmund, Serpe, Michael J.
Poly (N-isopropylacrylamide)-co-acrylic acid (pNIPAm-co-AAc) microgel based assemblies (aggregates) were synthesized from microgels of various diameters via polymerization of the crosslinker N,N′-methylenebisacrylamide (BIS) in the presence of microgels in solution. We investigated the ability of...

Parasuraman, Deepika, Sarker, Avijeet K., Serpe, Michael J.
Poly (N-isopropylacrylamide)-co-acrylic acid (pNIPAm-co-AAc) microgels and their aggregates have been shown to effectively remove organic dye molecules from aqueous solutions. Here, we investigate the reusability of these microgel-based systems by exposing them to the organic azo dye molecule,...
