Dynamic covalent hydrogels are facilely prepared from biocompatible polysaccharides in physiological conditions by the formation of phenylboronate ester cross‐links. This is based on the simple mixing of carboxylate‐containing polysaccharides (i.e., hyaluronic acid or carboxymethylcellulose) modified with phenylboronic acid and maltose moieties according to mild coupling reactions performed in aqueous solution. The formation of dynamic networks based on reversible boronic‐ester cross‐links is demonstrated by analyzing their rheological behavior. This study shows that these gels can adapt their structure in response to chemical stimuli such as variations in pH or addition of glucose and self‐heal.

Disclosed here is the design of a novel supramolecular membrane with self‐mobile adsorption sites for biomolecules purification. In the 3D micropore channels of membrane matrix, the ligands are conjugated onto the cyclic compounds in polyrotaxanes for protein adsorption. During membrane filtration, the adsorption sites can rotate and/or slide along the axial chain, which results in the enhanced adsorption capacity. The excellent performance of supramolecular membrane is related with the dynamic working manner of adsorption sites, which plays a crucial role on avoiding spatial mismatching and short‐circuit effect. The supramolecular strategy described here has general suggestions for the “sites” involved technologies such as catalysis, adsorption, and sensors, which is of broad interest.

A thermo‐, photo‐ and chemoresponsive shape‐memory material is successfully prepared by introducing α‐cyclodextrin (αCD) and azobenzene (Azo) into a poly(acrylate acid)/alginate (PAA/Alg) network. The tri‐stimuli‐responsive formation/dissociation of αCD‐Azo acts as molecular switches freezing or increasing the molecular mobility. The resulting film herein can be processed into temporary shapes as needed and recovers its initial shape upon the application of light irradiation, heating, or chemical agent independently. Furthermore, the agar diffusion test suggests that the α‐CD‐Alg/Azo‐PAA has good biocompatibility for L929 fibroblast‐like cells.

The combined effect of high pressure and electronic photo‐excitation has been proven to be very efficient in activating extremely selective polymerisations of small unsaturated hydrocarbons in diamond anvil cells (DAC). Here we report an ambient temperature, large volume synthesis of high density polyethylene based only on high pressure (0.4–0.5 GPa) and photo‐excitation (~350 nm), without any solvent, catalyst or radical initiator. The reaction conditions are accessible to the current industrial technology and the laboratory scale pilot reactor can be scaled up to much larger dimensions for practical applications. FTIR and Raman spectroscopy, and X‐ray diffraction, indicate that the synthesised material is of comparable quality with respect to the outstanding crystalline material obtained in the DAC. The polydispersity index is comparable to that of IV generation Ziegler‐Natta catalysts. Moreover the crystalline quality of the synthesised material can be further enhanced by a thermal annealing at 373 K and ambient pressure.

Cross‐linked azobenzene liquid‐crystalline polymer films with a poly(oxyethylene) backbone are synthesized by photoinitiated cationic copolymerization. Azobenzene moieties in the film surface toward the light source are simultaneously photoaligned during photopolymerization with unpolarized 436 nm light and thus form a splayed alignment in the whole film. The prepared films show reversible photoinduced bending behavior with opposite bending directions when different surfaces of one film face to ultraviolet light irradiation.

A novel type of emulsion gel based on star‐polymer‐stabilized emulsions is highlighted, which contains discrete hydrophobic oil and hydrophilic aqueous solution domains. Well‐defined phenol‐functionalized core‐crosslinked star polymers are synthesized via reversible addition‐fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT)‐mediated dispersion polymerization and are used as stabilizers for oil‐in‐water emulsions. Horseradish‐peroxidase‐catalyzed polymerization of the phenol moieties in the presence of H2O2 enables rapid formation of crosslinked emulsion gels under mild conditions. The crosslinked emulsion gels exhibit enhanced mechanical strength, as well as widely tunable composition.

Self‐initiated photografting polymerization is used to couple the polymerizable initiator monomer 2‐(2‐chloropropanoyloxy)ethyl acrylate to a range of polymeric substrates. The technique requires only UV light to couple the initiator to surfaces. The initiator surface density can be varied by inclusion of a diluent monomer or via selection of initiator and irradiation parameters. The functionality of the initiator surface is demonstrated by subsequent surface‐initiated atom transfer radical polymerization. Surfaces are characterized by x‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), ellipsometry, and atomic force microscopy (AFM), and UV‐induced changes to the initiator are assessed by 1H NMR and gel permeation chromatography (GPC). This is the first time this one‐reactant one‐step technique has been demonstrated for creating an initiator surface of variable density.

Diarylbutadiyne derivatives are ideal monomers for providing the π‐electron‐conjugated system of polydiacetylenes (PDAs). The geometrical parameters for diacetylene topochemical polymerization are known. However, control of the molecules under these parameters is yet to be addressed. This work shows that by simply tailoring diarylbutadiyne with amide side‐chain substituents, the arrangement of the substituents and the resulting hydrogen bond framework allows formation of π‐electron‐conjugated PDA.

Due to the axial group initiation in traditional (salen)CoX/quaternary ammonium catalyst system, it is difficult to construct single active center propagating polycarbonates for copolymerization of CO2/epoxides. Here a redox‐responsive poly(vinyl cyclohexene carbonate) (PVCHC) with detachable disulfide‐bond backbone is synthesized in a controllable manner using (salen)CoTFA/[bis(triphenylphosphine)iminium, [PPN]TFA binary catalyst, where the axial group initiation is depressed by judiciously choosing 3,3′‐dithiodipropionic acid as starter. While for those comonomers failing to obtain polycarbonate with unimodal gel permeation chromatography (GPC) curve, a versatile method is developed by combination of immortal copolymerization and prereaction approach, and functional aliphatic polycarbonates having well‐defined architecture and narrow polydispersity can be prepared. The resulting PVCHC can be further functionalized with alkenes by versatile cross‐metathesis reaction to tune the physicochemical properties. The combination of immortal polymerization and prereaction approach creates a powerful platform for controllable synthesis of functional CO2‐based polycarbonates.

Supramolecular polymer networks have attracted considerable attention not only due to their topological importance but also because they can show some fantastic properties such as stimuli‐responsiveness and self‐healing. Although various supramolecular networks are constructed by supramolecular chemists based on different non‐covalent interactions, supramolecular polymer networks based on multiple orthogonal interactions are still rare. Here, a supramolecular polymer network is presented on the basis of the host–guest interactions between dibenzo‐24‐crown‐8 (DB24C8) and dibenzylammonium salts (DBAS), the metal–ligand coordination interactions between terpyridine and Zn(OTf)2, and between 1,2,3‐triazole and PdCl2(PhCN)2. The topology of the networks can be easily tuned from monomer to main‐chain supramolecular polymer and then to the supramolecular networks. This process is well studied by various characterization methods such as 1H NMR, UV–vis, DOSY, viscosity, and rheological measurements. More importantly, a supramolecular gel is obtained at high concentrations of the supramolecular networks, which demonstrates both stimuli‐responsiveness and self‐healing properties.

The present review focuses on the recent progress made in thin film orientation of semi‐conducting polymers with particular emphasis on methods using epitaxy and shear forces. The main results reported in this review deal with regioregular poly(3‐alkylthiophene)s and poly(dialkylfluorenes). Correlations existing between processing conditions, macromolecular parameters and the resulting structures formed in thin films are underlined. It is shown that epitaxial orientation of semi‐conducting polymers can generate a large palette of semi‐crystalline and nanostructured morphologies by a subtle choice of the orienting substrates and growth conditions.

Botryoid‐shaped reactive terpolymer nanoparticles, whose aldehyde‐functional living domains are miniaturized into small‐sized discrete “grapes” and attached onto the outwardly‐branched scaffolds of fluorinated segments, are reported. These nanostructures can be fabricated by spontaneous structural reorganization of core–shell terpolymer micelles simply by manipulating drying conditions. The miniaturized discrete living domains are stabilized by outwardly‐branched scaffolds and exhibit excellent accessibility to solution media, thus can effectively respond to solution media, which is desired in sensor‐related applications.

Polymeric nanosheets organized by molecular building blocks bearing specifically oriented reactive groups provide abundant and versatile strategies for tailoring structure and chemical functionality periodically over extended length scales that complement graphene. Here we report the bulk synthesis of free‐standing polymeric nanosheets via spatially confined polymerization from an elaborate 2D supramolecular system composed of two liquid‐crystalline lamellar bilayer membranes of a self‐assembled nonionic surfactant—dodecylglyceryl itaconate (DGI)—sandwiched by a water layer. By employing a covalent polymerization on the lamellar bilayer membranes, single‐bilayer‐thick (4.2 nm), and large area (greater than 100 μm2) polymeric nanosheets of bilayer membranes are achieved. The polymeric nanosheets could serve as a well‐defined 2D platform for post‐functionalization for producing advanced hybrid materials by introducing the reactions on the hydroxyl groups at the head of DGI on the outer surfaces.

A simple and effective airflow method to prepare sandwich‐type block copolymer films is reported. The films are composed of three layers: vertically oriented nanocylinders align in both upper and bottom layers and irregular nanocylinders exist in the bulk of the film. The vertically oriented nanocylinders in both sides can provide high accessibility to ions and ensures the exchange of chemical species between the membrane and external environment, while the irregularly oriented nanocylinders in the middle part of the film can prolong the pathway of ions transportation and enhance ions selectivity.

Here, the preparation of a novel block copolymer consisting of a statistical copolymer N‐(2‐hydroxypropyl) methacrylamide‐s‐N‐(3‐aminopropyl) methacrylamide and a short terminal 3‐guanidinopropyl methacrylamide block is reported. This polymer structure forms neutral but water‐soluble nanosized complexes with siRNA. The siRNA block copolymer complexes are first analyzed using agarose gel electrophoresis and their size is determined with fluorescence correlation spectroscopy. The protective properties of the polymer against RNA degradation are investigated by treating the siRNA block copolymer complexes with RNase V1. Heparin competition assays confirm the efficient release of the cargo in vitro. In addition, the utilization of microscale thermophoresis is demonstrated for the determination of the binding strength between a fluorescently labeled polyanion and a polymer molecule.

A series of fluorene‐based conjugated polymers containing the aggregation‐induced emissive (AIE)‐active tetraphenylethene and dicarboxylate pseudocrown as a receptor exhibits a unique dual‐mode sensing ability for selective detection of lead ion in water. Fluorescence turn‐off and turn‐on detections are realized in 80%–90% and 20% water in tetrahydrofuran (THF), respectively, for lead ion with a concentration as low as 10−8 m .

Surface‐initiated photo‐induced copper‐mediated radical polymerization is employed to graft a wide range of polyacrylate brushes from silicon substrates at extremely low catalyst concentrations. This is the first time that the controlled nature of the reported process is demonstrated via block copolymer formation and re‐initiation experiments. In addition to unmatched copper catalyst concentrations in the range of few ppb, film thicknesses up to almost 1 μm are achieved within only 1 h.

A self‐healing hydrogel is prepared by crosslinking acrylamide with a host–guest macro‐crosslinker assembled from poly(β‐cyclodextrin) nanogel and azobenzeneacrylamide. The photoisomerizable azobenzene moiety can change its binding affinity with β‐cyclodextrin, therefore the crosslinking density and rheology property of the hydrogel can be tuned with light stimulus. The hydrogel can repair its wound autonomously through the dynamic host–guest interaction. In addition, the wounded hydrogel will lose its ability of self‐healing when exposed to ultraviolet light, and the self‐healing behavior can be recovered upon the irradiation of visible light. The utilizing of host–guest macro‐crosslinking approach manifests the as‐prepared hydrogel reversible and light‐switchable self‐healing property, which would broaden the potential applications of self‐healing polymers.

In this article, taurine, one of the small biomolecules associated with bone metabolism, is firstly utilized to induce the fabrication of nano‐architectured conducting polypyrrole (NCPPy) on biomedical titanium in diverse pH values of phosphate buffer solution (PBS). Accordingly, the possible mechanism for the fabrication of NCPPy is proposed, which is dependent on the states of polytaurine from the polymerization of taurine, i.e., the inability of forming polytaurine and unordered restricted space results in taurine‐incorporated and polytaurine‐incorporated tightly packed nanoparticles (pH 6.2 and 8.0), respectively, and however, ordered restricted space constructed by polytaurine chains induces the fabrication of polytaurine‐incorporated nanopillars (pH 6.8) and polytaurine‐incorporated nanowire networks (pH 7.4).

Amino‐acid‐based chiral surfactants with polymerizable moieties are synthesized, and a versatile approach to prepare particles thereof with a chiral surface functionality is presented. As an example of an application, the synthesized particles are tested for their ability as nucleating agents in the enantioselective crystallization of amino acid conglomerate systems, taking rac‐asparagine as a model system. Particles resulting from chiral surfactants with different tail groups are compared and the results demonstrate that only the chiral nanoparticles made of the polymerizable surfactant are able to act efficiently as nucleation agent in enantioselective crystallization.
