Gel thermoresponsiveness driven by switching of the charge-transfer interaction

Abstract

A novel gel LCST system consisting of a pyrene containing acrylate network polymer and external effectors is demonstrated. The LCST behaviour was conducted by switching of the CT interaction between the gel and effector, which was readily tuned by effector concentration or molecular structure of the effector.
