The present contribution reports on an original new class of acid-labile thermosensitive polyacrylamides, namely poly(tris(hydroxymethyl)acrylamidomethane-co-(5-acrylamido-5-hydroxymethyl-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane)) (P(THAM-co-pTHAM)), in which pTHAM only differed from THAM by an acetal group. The lower critical solution temperature (LCST) was controlled by varying the comonomer composition. Additionally, the properties of these new
