Molecular interactions in poly(methacrylic acid)/poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide) interpenetrating polymer networks

The molecular interactions between the component networks in poly(methacrylic acid)/poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide) (PMAA/PNIPAAm) interpenetrating polymer networks (IPNs) were investigated using attenuated total reflectance (ATR)-Fourier transform IR (FTIR) spectroscopy. Hydrogen-bond formation was noted between the carboxyl groups of PMAA and the amide groups of PNIPAAm. The ATR-FTIR results showed shifts in the carboxylic and amide groups, indicating the existence of hydrogen bonding between these two individual networks within the IPNs. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
