The Diels–Alder (DA) reaction is regarded as quite a useful strategy in organic and
macromolecular syntheses. The reversibility of this reaction and the advent of self-repair …

The intrinsic compliance of soft robots provides safety, a natural adaptation to its
environment, allows to absorb shocks, and protects them against mechanical impacts …

Ever since the emergence of polymers, there has been interest in the production of “self-
healing” materials. Over the last decade this dream has become closer to reality with the …

Self-healing coatings inspired by biological systems possess the ability to repair physical
damage or recover functional performance with minimal or no intervention. This article …

From cars to airplanes, from household appliances to indoor ornaments, from biomedical
devices to factory equipment, epoxy resins have been deeply rooted in modern society. But …

The outstanding performance of conventional thermosets arising from their covalently cross-
linked networks directly results in a limited recyclability. The available commercial or close …

Self‐healing materials are able to partially or completely heal damage inflicted on them, eg,
crack formation; it is anticipated that the original functionality can be restored. This article …

Vitrimers with covalent adaptable networks usually show low mechanical properties and
water resistivity. Here, we report an epoxy vitrimer which possesses not only high …

To tackle the challenges of insufficient heat conduction capacity and thermally/mechanically
induced internal damages of glass fiber reinforced epoxy composite (that traditionally serves …

A new high performance stiff epoxy vitrimer based on siloxane equilibration has been
fabricated in a simple way in which a polysiloxane oligomer containing aminopropyl side …
