Abstract

Vinyl acetic acid comonomers-based microgels exhibit exceptional behavior and morphological properties as compared to other comonomer polymerized microgels. High hydrophobic character of vinyl acetic acid induces core-shell type structure in poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-vinyl acetic acid) microgels. This review article describes the preparation methodologies and various properties of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-vinyl acetic acid)-based microgels. Applications of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-vinyl acetic acid) microgels in the field of nanotechnology, drug loading and delivery vehicle, morphology-tuned applications, optical etalon formation and catalysts have been discussed in detail. Future aspects of these specific types of polymer microgels have also been elaborated in detail.
