摘要
Equilibrium swelling curves of copolymer gels of N-isopropylacrylamide and a photosensitive molecule, bis(4-(dimethylamino)phenyl)(4-vinylphenyl)methyl leucocyanide, were determined as a function of temperature under ultraviolet irradiation. Without ultraviolet irradiation the gels underwent a sharp, yet continuous, volume change, whereas upon ultraviolet irradiation they showed a discontinuous volume phase transition. For fixed appropriate temperatures, the gels discontinuously swelled in response to irradiation of ultraviolet light and shrank when the light was removed. The phenomena were caused by osmotic pressure of cyanide ions created by ultraviolet irradiation. © 1990, American Chemical Society. All rights reserved.
