N-Isopropylacrylamide, 97%, Thermo Scientific Chemicals
Description
N-Isopropylacrylamide is used to produce poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (pNIPA, pNIPAAm, pNIPAA or pNIPAm) thermo sensitive polymer- or copolymer-based hydrogels. Polymers that contain NIPAM shrink dramatically above 33°C. Monomer used in the preparation of thermally sensitive, water-swellable hydrogels.
