Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research, we demonstrate designing principle for thermo-sensitive polymers by controlling assembly and disassembly among the ternary system consisting of a polymer, a solvent and an “effector” . The effector capable of interacting both the polymer chain and the solvent molecule contributes to solvation of the polymer chain in the poor solvent at room temperature and induces desolvation from the polymer chain at elevated temperature to exhibit lower critical solution temperature (LCST) phase separation. On the basis of our design, we constructed interesting stimuli-sensitive polymers, for examples, “universal” thermo-sensitive polymer that causes LCST in a wide range of organic solvents and thermo-sensitive polymers induced by optically active effectors. Furthermore, we demonstrated organic-reaction sensitive polymers that induce polymer phase separation by organic reactions, which is the first example for conjugation of organic reactions and polymer phase separation.
