Bioinspired Healable Mechanochromic Function from Fluorescent Polyurethane Composite Film
ChemistryOpen, 2020 Camouflage and wound healing are two vital functions for cephalopods to survive from dangerous ocean risks. Inspired by these dual functions, herein, we report a new type of healable mechanochromic (HMC) material.

Approaches to polymeric mechanochromic materials [PDF]
Journal of Polymer Science Part A: Polymer Chemistry, 2016 ABSTRACTMechanochromic materials respond to mechanical stimuli with a change of their optical properties. Such materials are of interest for many technological applications and support fundamental research as they help improving the understanding of stress transfer in polymeric objects and aid in the identification of the processes that lead to ...

Hierarchically Structured Deformation‐Sensing Mechanochromic Pigments
Advanced Science, 2023 Mechanochromic materials alter their color in response to mechanical force and are useful for both fundamental studies and practical applications. Several approaches are used to render polymers mechanochromic, but they generally suffer from limitations ...

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, 2020 AbstractMechanochromic polymers can be used as stress‐ and damage‐detecting sensors in polymeric materials, given that mechanical stimuli can be visualized by color changes. Although many types of mechanochromic polymers have been reported so far, there are only few examples on their further functionalization based on multiple color changes (multicolor

Suppressing the Mechanochromism of Flexible Photonic Crystals
Optics Express, 2023 We present flexible photonic crystal slabs (PCS) obtained by sputtering of a dielectric 100 nm Nb2O5 high refractive index layer onto a flexible nanostructured polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) substrate with 370 nm grating period. The PCS exhibit a guided mode resonance at around 650 nm.

Deep Learning Enables Identification of Antimicrobial Peptides Through Mechanochromic Fingerprints
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.We demonstrate a new platform for antimicrobial peptide identification by combining polydiacetylene, hyperspectral imaging, and deep learning. The trained model classifies distinct spectral fingerprints into 14 peptide classes with 96.79% accuracy, revealing previously hidden molecular information beyond conventional colorimetric sensing.
