Polymer networks expose a wide range of mechanical properties depending on their
microstructure and connectivity. Specifically, transient networks based on end-linking of …

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 …

By the coordination of dangling terpyridine (TPY) ligands with transition metal ions to form
supramolecular cross-linking points as sacrificial bonds (SBs), a double-cross-linked system …

This work presents a novel self-healing polyurethane (Upy-PU) that strikes a remarkable
balance between ultra-fast room-temperature self-healing and excellent mechanical …

Besides a stable phase, shape‐memory polymers require an additional switchable moiety.
In addition to thermal transitions and supramolecular interactions, these units can also be …
