a Evolution of the SEC chromatograms of P(AAm-co-BMDO) copolymers with the targeted average degree of polymerization (DPn, th); b variation of the solution transmittance vs. temperature of P(AAm-co-BMDO) copolymers P13 and P18P19 solution in water at 10 mg mL−1 upon cooling (1 °C min−1); c Variation of the intensity average diameter (Dz) from DLS vs. temperature of P(AAm-co-BMDO) copolymers P13 and P18P19 in solution in water (10 mg mL−1) upon cooling (1 °C min−1) during temperature cycling; d variation of the solution transmittance vs. temperature of P(AAm-co-BMDO) P13 at different concentrations in water, i.e., 1, 2.5, 5, and 10 mg mL−1 upon cooling (1 °C min−1).
