a Effect of temperature on the transmittance (at 650 nm) of PBS(−) containing POEGMA (●) and P(MAC-co-OEGMA) with MAC concentrations of 16 (■) and 20 mol% (◆). The polymer concentration was 5.0 mg/mL. b Effect of temperature on the transmittance (wavelength, 650 nm) of the P(MAC-co-OEGMA) gel with 20 mol% MAC prepared via UV (300–400 nm) exposure for 1 h. c Contact angles of an air bubble on the P(MAC-co-OEGMA) hydrogel with 20 mol% MAC in water at 25 °C and 37 °C. The gel was prepared by UV (300–400 nm) exposure for 2 h
