Stimuli-responsive polymers are capable of changing their chemical and/or physical properties in response to environmental stimuli. This unique feature has allowed stimuli-responsive polymers to be used in a variety of applications. In this review, we present a basic introduction to the theories that have been developed to describe polymer chains, brushes, and networks. We then detail numerous examples of how stimuli-responsive polymers can be used for sensing and biosensing, drug delivery, and as artificial muscles. While we focus the review on these particular areas, there are numerous other demonstrations of the applications of these fascinating materials, and we are certain that many applications have yet to be discovered.
