Temperature-responsive electrospun nanofibers for 'on–off' switchable release of dextran
We propose a new type of 'smart' nanofiber (NF) with dynamically and reversibly tunable properties for the 'on–off' controlled release of the polysaccharide dextran. The fibers are produced by electrospinning copolymers of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAAm) and N-hydroxymethylacrylam...
