Herein, we report synthesis of thermoresponsive poly(N-isopropylaccrylamide) (PNIPAM) microgels with short oligo(ethylene glycol) (OEG) chain comonomers (1 to 4/5 repeating unit) by surfactant-free precipitation copolymerization. The efficient incorporation of the comonomers was confirmed by a complete set of characterization methods

Nanoprecipitation is a straightforward yet powerful technique to synthesize polymer nanoparticles loaded with various biologically active compounds or contrast agents. Particle formation in this approach is kinetically controlled, and various assembly parameters have been used to control the size distribution
