Research Abstract |
In this research, we demonstrated that the Lipophilic polyelectrolytes with bulky and large ion pairs surrounded by lipophilic groups expand their polymer chains largely in non-polar organic solvents due to electrostatic repulsion among them. This result enabled us to develop super-absorbent polymers for various organic solvents and provided rational molecular design of thermally-sensitive polymer materials. Moreover, we successfully prepared super-absorbent polymers active at low temperature and constructed Layer-by-Layer multilayer thin films in the non-polar organic solvents other than water.
