Abstract

Abstract : Thermoresponsive polymers undergo phase separation in response to changes in temperature. In their Communication (e202209530), Simon Harrisson, Colin Bonduelle, and co‐workers present the use of synthetic polymers consisting of L‐proline monomer units exhibiting temperature‐driven aggregation in water with unprecedented hysteresis. This protein‐like behavior paves the way to new processes, driven by either temperature or ionic strength changes, such as simple "with memory" thermometers.
