文摘

Thermosensitive uniform-sized poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) minigels with diameters of several micrometers were synthesized by a double template method using silica particles as original molds. The firsttemplate composed of the silica particles produced a macroporous polystyrene as the second template todecide the shape and the size of the minigels. The resultant minigels in the second template covalentlyinterconnect with each other. After the minigels were collapsed in each compartment of the macroporouspolystyrene, the separated minigel particles were obtained.
