A strategy to efficiently synthesize thermally reprogrammable but mechanically stable liquid crystalline elastomers (LCEs) is reported by investigating the catalytic effects of para-substituted phenols on dynamic aza-Michael reactions. The synthesis LCEs was optimized based a study catalyzed small-molecule reactions, where presence an electron-withdrawing substituent significantly improved reactivity system. catalysts were then screened their exchange adducts. Catalysts with substituents efficient in inducing bonds, thus influencing mesogen alignment and actuation. After programming alignment, catalyst washed away dramatically reduce activity improve creep resistance material while preserving postsynthetic alignment. This approach represents straightforward accessible methodology for obtaining programmable as well actuators from LCEs.

The vast majority of traditional vulcanized rubber products are insoluble and infusible, which is difficult to reprocess biodegrade, resulting in black pollution. In addition, although most materials based on covalent adaptive networks (CANs) can achieve structural reconstruction, the lack vulcanization system leads a decline strength. this study, biobased vanillin derivatives (PV) were synthesized cross-link commercially available 1,2-polybutadiene precursor construct imine-based CANs, thereby fabricating resource-renewable, recyclable, degradable high-performance material. Due rigid tripod structure PV, tensile strength material as high 16.24 MPa, ranking among best field recyclable polybutadiene-based materials. Benefiting from dynamic imine unit, "dynamic bridge" be re-established repair damaged network endow with excellent weldability. And, shape memory faculty was proved depicted. Moreover, displayed antibacterial property originates introduced Schiff-base structure. By mixing graphene, application action sensors also achieved.

Thermoset materials sacrifice recyclability and reshapeability for increased chemical mechanical robustness because of an immobilized, cross-linked polymeric matrix. The robust material properties thermosets make them well-suited applications such as heat-shielding (HSMs) or ablatives where excellent thermal stability, good strength, high charring ability are paramount. Many these characteristic covalent adaptable networks (CANs), the static connectivity has been replaced with dynamic cross-links. This allows network mobility while retaining cross-link to permit damage repair reshaping that traditionally inaccessible thermoset materials. Herein, we report synthesis hybrid inorganic–organic enaminone vitrimers contain exceptionally weight percent polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS)-derivatives. Polycondensation β-ketoester-containing POSS various diamine cross-linkers led facile tunability, shapeability, predictable glass transition temperatures, residual char mass following degradation. Furthermore, show notable retention their preordained shape decomposition, suggesting future utility in design HSMs complex detailing.

Benzoxazines represent a class of thermoset resins known for their exceptional thermal, fire, and mechanical properties. These find wide applications in various industries, including composites electronic components. However, like conventional thermosets, benzoxazines have limitations terms end-of-life options, typically being landfilled or incinerated. To address this concern, researchers been exploring the incorporation dynamic bonds into structure polybenzoxazines to add functionalities such as reprocessability, self-healing, recycling capabilities, develop polybenzoxazine-based covalent adaptable networks (CANs). This mini-review offers an overview recent endeavors focused on introduction within polybenzoxazine structures. It emphasizes synergies between molecular exchanges, transesterification disulfide metathesis, provides comparative summary properties achieved by materials developed context. By leveraging strengths benzoxazine structures, aims foster exploration development innovative approaches that combine unique CANs, enabling more sustainable environmentally friendly materials.
