Influence of Dopamine Methacrylamide on swelling behaviour and nanomechanical properties of PNIPAM microgels

Sandra Forg, Xuhong Guo, Regine von Klitzing

The combination of the catechol-containing co-monomer dopamine methacrylamide (DMA) with stimuli-responsive microgels such as poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) bears a huge pote…
