Characterizing PNIPAm Thermal Sensitive Hydrogel

In this application note, a thermosensitive PNIPAm sample is characterized by automatic measurements of the particle sizes and zeta potentials under the programmed temperature change process of the BeNano. The PNIPAm measured exhibits similar behavior with the reported results from most literature. The temperature trend measurement of the BeNano can significantly improve the measurement efficiency and provide a robust and powerful testing tool for such applications.
