While cationic microgels are potentially useful for the transfection or transformation of cells, their synthesis has certain drawbacks regarding size, polydispersity, yield, and incorporation of the cationic comonomers. In this work, a range of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) microgels with different amounts of the primary amine N-(3-aminopropyl)methacrylamide hydrochloride (APMH) as the cationic comonomer were synthesized. Moreover, the pH-value during reaction was varied for the synthesis of microgels with 10 mol% APMH-feed. The microgels were analyzed by means of their size, thermoresponsive swelling behavior, synthesis yield, polydispersity and APMH-incorporation. The copolymerization of APMH leads to a strong decrease in size and yield of the microgels, while less than one third of the nominal APMH monomer feed is incorporated into the microgels. With an increase of the reaction pH up to 9.5, the negative effects of APMH copolymerization were significantly reduced. Above this pH, synthesis was not feasible due to aggregation. The results show that the reaction pH has a strong influence on the synthesis of pH-responsive cationic microgels and therefore it can be used to tailor the microgel properties.

AbstractNovel graft copolymeric, pH responsive hydrogels have been synthesized by solution polymerization. Poly(methacrylic acid-g-ethylene glycol) hydrogels exhibit reversible complexation as a function of pH because of hydrogen bonding between the PEG grafts and the PMAA main chains. These gels are being developed as pH responsive membranes for use in biomedical applications. ATR-FTIR results indicate that there is hydrogen bonding occurring in membranes swollen under conditions favorable for complexation. Equilibrium swelling studies have shown that the pH of the surrounding environment has a significant effect on the swelling behavior of these membranes. The swelling behavior has also been shown to respond rapidly to changing pH conditions. P(MAA-g-EG) membranes also show pH sensitive permeability toward solutes as a result of this environmentally sensitive swelling.
