Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) nanogels were synthesized by emulsion polymerization using sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). After removal of SDS by dialysis, the surface tensions of the PNIPAM nanogel aqueous dispersions were measured at various temperatures by the pendant-drop method, and it was found that the surface tensions of the nanogel dispersion below the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of PNIPAM were much smaller than those of water and comparable to those of the SDS aqueous solution. The stability of the aqueous foams generated by nitrogen bubbling thorough the PNIPAM nanogel dispersion was investigated below and above the LCST of PNIPAM. The foam prepared below the LCST was stable in some degree, whereas almost no foam was formed above the LCST. Moreover, the foam prepared below the LCST was quickly collapsed by changing the temperature above the LCST. This rapid defoaming represents that the surface activity of the PNIPAM nanogel can be switched off by the temperature increase across the LCST. (C) 2017 The Society of Powder Technology Japan.
