Polymer networks embedded with dynamic covalent bonds have been demonstrated to be capable of network reconfiguration. This reprocessability is often related the dynamics or flowability, precise control which highly depends on underlying chemistry. Particularly, vitrimer materials flow at a constant crosslinking density because associative chemistry involved. Here, we report fabrication enamine-one vitrimers through an amino-yne click reaction using secondary amine substrates. Compared primary amines, amine-based mild and yields less gel content (70 vs 97%) in our curing system. By modulating substituents amine, show that activation energy exchange increases (52–90 kJ/mol) increasing steric hindrance (piperidyl ∼ methyl < ethyl isopropyl tert-butyl), similar trend was observed networks. Interestingly, piperidine exhibits reactivities (including yielded dynamics) comparable amines constrained cyclic structure. study not only enriches scope substrates for but also offers convenient means tune substrate choices combination strategies (i.e., mixing various amines).

Poly(β-amino esters) (PBAEs), which include tertiary amines at the β-position of ester linkages, are promising in biomaterials due to their biodegradability and pH responsiveness. Such characteristics molecular structure also appealing for designing catalyst-free covalent adaptable networks (CANs), but this has rarely been explored literature. Herein, we synthesize a series PBAE-based CANs by aza-Michael addition, using diacrylate monomers with without β-hydroxyl groups, triamine crosslinker. By leveraging hydrogen bonding, thermal mechanical properties these effectively tuned through monomer composition. Owing numerous serving as internal catalysts, undergo network exchange dynamic reaction. Interestingly, increasing amount groups accelerates overall stress relaxation from synergistic effects transesterification (associative type) lower temperatures reaction (dissociative higher temperatures. Based on features, successfully demonstrate reprocessing healing elevated under mild pressure, well shape memory reconfiguration. Thus, controlling group concentration is useful strategy enhancing both strength rate.
