Abstract

The cloud point was determined for aqueous solutions of two poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) samples, one having a hydrophobic nonionic chain-end group (M sample) and the other having a hydrophilic anionic chain-end group (R sample), with an addition of two kinds of surfactants, anionic sodium n-dodecyl sulfate (SDS) or cationic n-dodecyltrimethylammonium chloride (DTAC). It is found that behavior of the cloud point as a function of the concentration cs of the surfactants largely depends on the kinds of chain-end group and surfactant.
