Abstract
We report a novel thermally responsive system from poly(butyl methacrylate)-b-poly(methacrylic acid)-b-poly(butyl methacrylate) (PBMA-b-PMAA-b-PBMA) triblock copolymer in dimethylformamide (DMF) solvent. This system shows a sol–gel transition by cooling below a critical temperature Tc. The network relaxation times of these gels rightly fall in the typical rheological experiment window, permitting us to investigate the relaxation dynamics and...
