Abstract: The'single chain" microgels were synthesized successfully from the crosslinkable Poly( Nisopropylacrylamide) copolymers. The viscosity properties show that the microgels have an even higher LCST than that of the corresponding linear copolymers.

Key words: Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide), Coil-to-globule transition, Single chain microgels
