Thermally Responsive Composite Hydrogel via Self-Assembly for Smart Window Applications

A novel thermally responsive hydrogel (TRH) has been demonstrated by confining poly(ethylene oxide), poly(propylene oxide), and poly(ethylene oxide) triblock-copolymer (EPE) molecules into the pores of polymer framework. Aqueous EPE copolymer molecule had a tendency to aggregate to form clusters gra...
