Tunable mechanical response under dynamic and static loading is desirable for many
technological applications. Traditionally, mechanical performance of polymeric materials is …

Metal coordination hydrogels (MC-HGs) that introduce dynamically coordinate bonds
together with metal ionic conduction have attracted considerable attention in flexible …

In this invited frontier article, recently discovered d6 and d10 complexes with long-lived
metal-to-ligand charge transfer (MLCT) excited states are highlighted. Chelating …

Mussel-inspired polymeric materials have found a broad range of applications not only in
adhesives, coatings, and tough hydrogels but thanks to self-healing and stimuli …

We report on the characterization of two imine type ligands containing photoresponsive
azobenzene units as side groups and their transition metal ions complexes. The ligands …

Mechanisms of biomaterial sclerotization in natural systems promise new insights into how
the mechanical properties of engineered materials may be dynamically modulated. One …

Metal coordination crosslinking between stiff N-polyindole chains was constructed, and the
crosslinked films exhibited high tensile strength, high heat resistance and excellent polar …

Crosslinked high‐performance polymers have many industrial applications, but are difficult
to recycle or rework. A novel class of recyclable crosslinking Cu (II)‐metallo‐supramolecular …

2, 2′-Bipyridine-terminated poly (dimethylsiloxane) s (bpyPDMS) with number average
molecular weights, MN, of 3300, 6100, 26 200, and 50 000 g mol− 1 were synthesized …

In order to combine dendritic structures and thermoresponsiveness within the field of metallo-
supramolecular chemistry, a novel type of smart hydrogel was prepared through ferrous ion …
