temperature above which a polymer such as poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) separates out of water, enabling thermally switched materials.

In polymer science, lower critical solution temperature refers to temperature above which a polymer such as poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) separates out of water, enabling thermally switched materials. This meaning comes from Heskins (1968) in Journal of Macromolecular Science: Part A - Chemistry.[1]
