On the basis of many literature measurements, a critical overview is given on essential
noncovalent interactions in synthetic supramolecular complexes, accompanied by analyses …

Interactions between solvents and solutes are a cornerstone of physical organic chemistry
and have been the subject of investigations over the last century. In recent years, a renewed …

Importing self-repair or self-healing features into inert materials is of great relevance to
material scientists, since it is expected to eliminate the necessity of replenishing a damaged …

Supramolecular materials, dynamic materials by nature, are defined as materials whose
components are bridged via reversible connections and undergo spontaneous and …

As a novel class of dynamic and non‐covalent polymers, supramolecular polymers not only
display specific structural and physicochemical properties, but also have the ability to …

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 …

As polymers and polymeric materials are “the” smart invention and technological driving
force of the 20th century, the quest for self‐healing or self‐repairing polymers is strong. The …
