Swelling Ratio of Hydrogels
• RCPs showed better swelling ability than CCPs in different solvents. • RCPs obtained from different monomers exhibited different swelling ability
and the enhancements vary owing to the difference of the VSC structure in each gel.

Thermo-responsive Hydrogel Synthesis of thermo-responsive hydrogel Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) is a temperature-responsive polymer. It forms a three-dimensional hydrogel when cross-linked .PNIPAM hydrogels have important usages because of its lower critical solution temperature (LCST), which is 32 ℃.
But covalently cross-linked PNIPAM hydrogel is fragile and easy to break. We found that using rotaxane cross-linker will enhance the gel. In this study, our experiment proved that the thermo-responsibility of RCPNIPAM is better than CCPNIPAM.

Conclusion
• RCPs were successfully synthesized using various monomers.
• RCPs showed better swelling ability than CCPs in most situation.
• RCPDMAA are more elastic and show almost the same tensile strength as the CCPDMAA .
• RCPNIPAM exhibits better thermo-responsibility than CCPNIPAM
