The incorporation of deformable network junctions into polymer networks is a new fundamental concept in the design smart topology-switching materials. However, it still nascent field that needs to be amplified by developing and creating materials with practical properties. Here, we construct (TPN) using conformational transformable peptide coiled-coils as junctions. coiled-coil display two distinct branch functionalities at pH 6 8, respectively. As consequence, TPN shows nearly instantaneous reversible solution-gel transition when varies between 8. This does not rely on establishment interactions components occurs during most hydrogelation processes but only reconfiguration triggered topology change, which may represent hydrogel formation mechanism. Moreover, can used minor reinforce main double system, unexpectedly interestingly, reinforcement pathway-dependent achieved situ change rather than directly utilizing specific prepare network.
