Abstract

Several proposals for the construction of artificial photoresponsive polymer systems are reviewed. On photoirradiation, photoresponsive polymers change reversibly their physical and/or chemical properties, such as conformation, shape, surface wettability, membrane potential, membrane permeability, pH, solubility, sol-gel transition temperature, and phase separation temperature of polymer blends. The dynamics of the conformation changes detected with a time-resolved light scattering measuring system combined with a short laser pulse source is included in the discussion. Photoresponsive polymers are interesting practically as well as academically.
