Stimuli-Responsive Water Soluble and

Driven by the dual needs for technologically smart and environmentally compatible materials synthesized, dispersed, and delivered in water or aqueous media, this book examines current developments in this rapidly growing area in polymer science. Chapters examine the relationships between fundamental polymer structure and physical behavior in aqueous media in response to external stimuli.
