Self-healing materials open new prospects for more sustainable technologies with improved
material performance and devices' longevity. We present an overview of the recent …

Dynamic covalent polymer networks (DCPN) have historically attracted attention for their
unique roles in chemical recycling and self-healing, which are both relevant for sustainable …

Developing a new generation of polymeric materials that integrate robust mechanical
properties with ultra-high self-healing efficiency at ambient temperature remains a …

The classical division of polymeric materials into thermoplastics and thermosets based on
covalent network structure often implies that these categories are distinct and irreconcilable …

Biological systems have the powerful ability to self-heal. Human skin can, for example,
autonomously heal from wounds of various degrees, allowing it to restore its mechanical …

Boron-containing polymers have many applications resulting from their prominent
properties. Organoboron species with reversible B–O bonds have been successfully …

Dynamic covalent bonds (DCBs) have received widespread attention due to their unique
reversibility and stimulus responsiveness. The introduction of DCBs often endows materials …

Reversible covalent polymers are able to change their bond arrangement and structure via
reversible reaction triggered by external stimuli including heating, light and pH, while …

Less than 10% of plastics are recycled worldwide, among which polyolefins, which form two-
thirds of all produced polymers, are the most discarded ones. This stems from the nonpolar …

Recent years, an explosive growth of wearable technology has been witnessed. A highly
stretchable and sensitive wearable strain sensor which can monitor motions is in great …
