Schematic representation of the functionalization of P(NIPAm-co-AAc) and IPN microgels with –ene reactive groups. The P(NIPAM-co-AA) and IPN nanogels are is ene-functionalized by allylamine at room temperature in the presence of EDC/NHS couple. Then, allylamine is added to the for the formation of the amide bonds onto the carboxylic acid. The reaction is allowed to proceed for 48 h.
