Supramolecular Polymer Brushes. [PDF]
ACS Polym Au, 2023 Polymer brushes are thin polymer films that consist of densely grafted, chain-end tethered polymers. These thin polymer films can be produced either by anchoring presynthesized chain-end functional polymers to the surface of interest ("grafting to"), or by using appropriately modified surfaces to facilitate growth of polymer chains from the substrate ("

Tuning Dry and Wet Adhesion with a Branched Supramolecular Polymer Solution [PDF]
Small Science, 2023 Endowing adhesives with both dry and wet adhesion to surfaces from hard substrates to soft biological tissues is challenging. Herein, a branched supramolecular polymer is introduced in dry‐ and wet‐crosslinking forms to adaptively achieve dry and wet ...

Highly robust supramolecular polymer networks crosslinked by a tiny amount of metallacycles [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsSupramolecular polymeric materials have exhibited attractive features such as self-healing, reversibility, and stimuli-responsiveness. However, on account of the weak bonding nature of most noncovalent interactions, it remains a great challenge to ...

Preparation and Performance Evaluation of a Supramolecular Polymer Gel-Based Temporary Plugging Agent for Heavy Oil Reservoir [PDF]
GelsWhen encountering heavy oil reservoirs during drilling, due to the change in pressure difference inside the well, heavy oil will invade the drilling fluid, and drilling fluid will spill into the reservoir along the formation fractures, affecting the ...

Healable supramolecular polymer solids [PDF]
Progress in Polymer Science, 2015 Abstract The reversible nature of non-covalent interactions between constituting building blocks permits one to temporarily disassemble supramolecular polymers through the application of an appropriate external stimulus “on command”. This framework has recently emerged as a general design strategy for the development of healable polymer systems.
