AbstractSummary: In this work, the use of a temperature‐sensitive polymer gel, poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide), for the concentration of whey proteins was studied. The studied variables were: gel mass/solution volume ratio and concentration temperature. The concentration percentage and the selectivity were determined. The gel 20 × 5 (20% w/w total monomer/solution and 5% w/w crosslinking agent/total monomer), contacted with whey proteins solutions, at 5 °C and at 20 °C, was capable of concentrating the solution, in protein, from 10 to 33%, depending on the gel mass/solution volume ratio. The separation efficiencies, for the different studied systems, varied from around 40 to 80%. The results were discussed in the context of gels thermodynamics and through correlations between synthesis parameters and structure of the obtained gels. The obtained results for the concentration of whey proteins solutions, by using temperature‐sensitive polymer gel, poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide), showed that the Gel Process can indeed be used as an advantageous alternative for such separation, either from an economic or from an environmental view point.
