摘要

Abstract

Both of temperature (in water) and composition (in the water/methanol mixed solvent) can induce the coil-to-globule transition of poly(

-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM). The atomic force microscope (AFM) based single molecule force spectroscopy (SMFS) has been exploited to investigate the interactions between the polymer chain and solvent at the single-molecule level. It is found that the single-chain mechanics of PNIPAM show a remarkable dependence on the two external stimuli. A confusing experimental result is that all the force-extension (F-E) curves of unfolding an individual PNIPAM globule present a feature of elastic (monotonically increasing force) stretching but not plateau (constant force) stretching predicted by theory. In this article

we clarify that the presence of the interior solvent molecules in the single-chain globule is the origin of the discrepancy between the F-E curves obtained from theory and experiment. Although both of the external stimuli do tend to lower the solvent quality for PNIPAM

water and the water/methanol mixed solvent will never be the strongly poor solvent for PNIPAM

even at the worst condition.
