P(NIPAAm) copolymers exhibit temperature behavior, where as a polymer solution is heated above the LCST, the polymeric chains collapse from a coil to a globule conformation. This collapse liberates water molecules that had adopted an ordered conformation around the alkyl-substituted amide moieties. Reprinted by permission from (103) published by Elsevier.
