This study describes the synthesis and behavior of temperature-sensitive SBMA homopolymers and core cross-linked micelles with an SBMA shell. It has been shown that an increase in the chain length and concentration of the homopolymer results in an increase in UCST. The micelles exhibit concentration-dependent dual temperature-sensitive behavior. Various characterization techniques were used to analyze the homopolymers and micelles. Stabilized micelles were successfully prepared for pH and temperature-controlled drug delivery. The CCMs show promising potential as smart drug carriers.
In this study, we describe the synthesis and aqueous solution behavior of temperature-sensitive N-(3-sulfopropyl)-N-methacroyloxyethyl-N,N-dimethylammonium betaine (SBMA) homopolymers and core cross-linked micelles (CCMs) with an SBMA shell. Reversible addition- fragmentation chain transfer polymerization has been utilized to synthesize sulfobetaine homopolymers, followed by CCM formation during copoly-merization in the presence of an acid-degradable cross-linker. First, SBMA homopolymers of varying chain lengths were synthesized, and it has been demonstrated that an increase in the chain length and concentration of the homopolymer resulted in an increase in the upper critical solution temperature (UCST). Besides, micelles showed concentration-dependent dual temperature-sensitive behavior with UCST and LCST transitions. Also, homopolymers and CCMs were characterized by FTIR, H-1-NMR, GPC, and TEM. Micelle formation and temperature sensitivity were also investigated by DLS. As a result, stabilized micelles were successfully prepared with the motivation of preventing premature drug release and achieving a pH-and temperature-controlled system. Due to their dual-responsive characteristics, the CCMs show promising potential to be used as smart drug carriers for controlled delivery.
