Covalent adaptable networks (CANs) are covalently cross-linked polymers that may be reshaped via cross-linking and/or strand exchange at elevated temperatures. They represent an exciting and rapidly developing frontier in polymer science for their potential as stimuli-responsive materials to make traditionally nonrecyclable thermosets more sustainable. CANs whose cross-links undergo associative intermediates rather than dissociating separate reactive groups termed vitrimers. Vitrimers were postulated attractive subset of CANs, because cross-link mechanisms maintain the original density network throughout process. As a result, demonstrate gradual, Arrhenius-like reduction viscosity temperatures while maintaining mechanical integrity. In contrast, reprocessed by dissociation reformation have been exhibit rapid decrease with increasing temperature. Here, we survey stress relaxation behavior all dissociative which variable temperature or data reported date. All Arrhenius relationship between viscosity, only small percentage broken instantaneously under typical reprocessing conditions. such, show nearly identical over broad ranges typically used reprocessing. Given term vitrimer was coined highlight temperature, analogy vitreous glasses, discourage its continued use describe CANs. The realization mechanism does not greatly influence practical most suggests chemistries can considered fewer constraints, focusing instead on activation parameters, synthetic convenience, application-specific considerations.

Abstract Soft ionic conductors show great promise in multifunctional iontronic devices, but currently utilized gel materials suffer from liquid leakage or evaporation issues. Here, a dry ion‐conducting elastomer with dynamic crosslinking structures is reported. The endow it combined advantageous properties simultaneously, including high conductivity (2.04 × 10 −4 S cm −1 at 25 °C), self‐healing capability (96% healing efficiency), stretchability (563%), and transparency (78%). With this conductor as the electrode, two soft devices (electroluminescent triboelectric nanogenerator tactile sensors) are realized entirely stretchable capabilities. Due to absence of materials, shows wide operational temperature range, achieve excellent stability. These findings provide promising strategy highly conductive conductors, demonstrate their potential iontronics electronics.

The ever-increasing demand for flexible and portable electronics has stimulated research development in building advanced electrochemical energy devices which are lightweight, ultrathin, small size, bendable, foldable, knittable, wearable, and/or stretchable. In such devices, semi-solid/solid electrolytes besides anodes cathodes the necessary components determining energy/power performances. By serving as ion transport channels, may be beneficial to resolving issues of leakage, electrode corrosion, metal dendrite growth. this paper, fundamentals (e.g., chemical composition, ionic conductivity, window, mechanical strength, thermal stability, other attractive features), electrode–electrolyte interfacial properties, their relationships with performance various supercapacitors, secondary batteries, metal–sulfur metal–air batteries) comprehensively reviewed terms materials synthesis characterization, functional mechanisms, device assembling validation. most recent advancements improving summarized focuses on analyzing existing technical challenges solid electrolyte interphase formation, growth, polysulfide shuttle issue, instability half-open battery structure) strategies overcoming these through modification materials. Several possible directions future proposed going beyond technological bottlenecks achieving desirable fulfill practical applications. It is expected that review provide readers a comprehensive cross-technology understanding facilitating current researches devices.

Abstract Durable hydrophobic materials have attracted considerable interest in the last century. Currently, most popular strategy to achieve coating durability is through combination of a perfluoro-compound with mechanically robust matrix form composite for protection. The structure typically large (thicker than 10 μm), difficult scale arbitrary materials, and incompatible applications requiring nanoscale thickness such as heat transfer, water harvesting, desalination. Here, we demonstrate durable hydrophobicity superhydrophobicity nanoscale-thick, perfluorinated compound-free polydimethylsiloxane vitrimers that are self-healing due exchange network strands. vitrimer thin film maintains excellent optical transparency after scratching, cutting, indenting. We show can be deposited scalable dip-coating on variety substrates. In contrast previous work achieving thick coatings by passively stacking protective structures, this presents pathway ultra-thin (thinner 100 nm) films.

The application of NASICON-type Li1.5Al0.5Ge1.5P3O12 (LAGP) solid electrolyte in lithium (Li) metal batteries has been retarded by its instability toward metallic Li and the poor interfacial compatibility with cathodes. Here we report a durable LAGP-based battery employing self-healing polymer electrolytes (SHEs) as Janus interfaces. SHEs were constructed on both sides LAGP pellets situ polymerizing functional monomer cross-linker ionic liquid-based (anodic side contact metal) or adiponitrile (AN)-based (cathodic side) electrolytes. as-developed show flame-retardant, high conductivity (>10–3 S cm–1 at 25 °C), excellent electrodes, effective inhibition dendrite formation. metal||LiMn2O4 SHE interfaces deliver reversible capacity long cycle.
