Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>Cover:</bold> Cover: Rapid response characteristics of polystyrene/poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) blended nanofiber mats fabricated by electrospinning process is shown by placing a droplet (dye solution) on top of the fiber mat surface with their contact angle changing images. The fiber mat switches from superhydrophobic to superhydrophilic state in few seconds in response to changes in environmental temperature. Further details can be found in the article by Palanikkumaran Muthiah, * Timothy J. Boyle, and Wolfgang Sigmund on page 1251. <boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgg3zmns3zq" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
