Abstract Materials experience various environmental changes during use. However, materials used for engineering applications tend to have fixed properties. The lack of adaptability increases costs, weight, and impacts structural because material selection the worst-case scenario. Similarly, limits performance functional that are used, such as with camouflage, wetting ability, adhesion properties, as-synthesized optimized a specific operation environment. Biological organisms address this challenge by dynamically changing characteristics based on their It will be desirable next-generation synthetic adopt capability adapt operating environments. In issue, recent efforts develop adaptive different conditions stimuli introduced broad community. Then, current challenges future research opportunities discussed, followed potential scientific societal materials. Graphical abstract
