Abstract

Temperature‐responsive membranes have been produced by combining ion‐track membranes with a temperature‐responsive hydrogel, which swells and absorbs water below 14°C, releasing it and shrinking above this temperature. The preparation of the ion‐track membranes is described and how the polymer hydrogel is grafted onto the surfaces of the membrane and the walls of the cylindrical pores (formed by the etched ion tracks). An investigation of between fully open and fully closed pores at different temperatures.
