Résumé

A material is referred to as stimuli responsive when a slight change in external parameters can drastically alter its structure, function, or stability. Polymers with their delicate entropy-energy interplay at ambient temperatures are especially suitable for such phenomena. Here, the example of polymer properties in solvent…
