Studies on thermoresponsive polymers: Phase behaviour, drug delivery and biomedical applications

The present review aims to highlight the applications of thermoresponsive polymers. Thermo-responsive polymers show a sharp change in properties upon a small or modest change in temperature. This behaviour can be utilized for the preparation of so-called ‘smart’ drug delivery systems, which mimic bi...
