We present a surfactant-free precipitation polymerization approach, combining temperature-ramp (T-ramp) and fed-batch, generating 1-5 µm in diameter poly(N-Vinylcaprolactam) (pVCL) microgels. Confocal microscopy and dynamic light scattering (DLS) confirm that the size of temperature-responsive pVCL microgels can be adjusted by the feeding ratio. The experimentally determined microgel sizes match well the model-based predictions. The developed synthesis method achieves high monomer conversions and provides high microgel yields as determined by Raman spectroscopy.}, cin = {416710}, cid = {$I:(DE-82)416710_20140620$}, pnm = {SFB 985 B04 - Synthese von Mikrogelen: Kinetik, Partikelbildung und Reaktordesign (B04) (221473487) / DFG project 191948804 - SFB 985: Funktionelle Mikrogele und Mikrogelsysteme (191948804)}, pid = {G:(GEPRIS)221473487 / G:(GEPRIS)191948804}, typ = {PUB:(DE-HGF)32}, doi = {10.18154/RWTH-2019-05397}, url = {https://publications.rwth-aachen.de/record/762101}, }
