Abstract Marine animals, such as leptocephalus and jellyfish, can sense external stimuli achieve optical camouflage in the aquatic environment. Fabricating an intelligent soft sensor that mimic capabilities of transparent marine animals function underwater enable transformative applications various novel fields. However, previously reported sensors struggle to meet requirements adhesion, self‐healing ability, transparency, stable conductivity Herein, high‐performance ionogels by virtue ion–dipole ion–ion interactions between fluorine‐rich poly(ionic liquid) ionic liquid are designed. The hydrophobic dynamic viscoelastic networks provide excellent properties for ionogels, including adjustable mechanical properties, adhesiveness, conductivity, 3D printability. A mechanically compliant visually invisible based on ionogel is developed. This camouflage, human‐body‐motion detection, barrier‐free communication contactless sensing mechanism changing electron transfer pathway proposed. Several interesting functions, detection water environment changes, recognition objects, delivery information, even identification human standing posture be realized. Importantly, avoid fatigue physical damage process.

The evolution of self-healing polymers has resulted in a myriad healing designs that have given way to complex systems capable supporting multiple cycles, among other features. This progression enables us propose the implementation timeline classifies generations based on mechanism, and correlated with historical development. first generation employed encapsulation external agents; second one, intrinsic mechanisms, applied reversible chemistries; third was inspired by natural examples such as plants human skin, which agent is embedded vascular networks. Despite great efforts and, few exceptions, high efficiency mechanical performance are not common. To improve this situation, combination different mechanisms currently emerging, giving birth fourth materials. article, focused elastomers, provides rigorous overview new generation, covalent bonds non-covalent interactions an optimal balance between repairability. concept leads materials real commercial potential functional applications, coatings, sensors, actuators, controlled release drugs, seals, gaskets, hoses, even high-performance applications tires railway components.

Abstract Developing an autonomous room temperature self‐healing supramolecular polyurethane (PU) with toughness and stiffness remains a great challenge. Herein, novel concept that utilizes T‐shaped chain extender double amide hydrogen bonds in side to extend PU prepolymers construct highly stiff tough integrated functions is reported.
