1 Introduction Thermoresponsive hydrogels are an important class of materials with applicability in many research areas from drug delivery[1, 2] to sensors.[3, 4] The extent of thermoresponsiveness can be dictated by a polymer's lower critical solution temperature (LCST) phase transition, whereby soluble polymer chains undergo aggregation out of solution.[5] For hydrogels, this enables hydrophilic to hydrophobic phase separation, which can promote changes in gel mechanical properties.[6]...
