自修复聚合物材料的研究进展

针对聚合物材料在使用过程中难以检测的损伤,人们引入了自修复概念。本文就近年来自修复聚合物材料的研究进展作了系统综述。根据自修复过程是否使用修复剂,聚合物材料(包括聚合物基复合材料)的自修复可分为外援型和本征型两大类。外援型自修复借助于外加修复剂实现自修复,主要包括埋植微胶囊化修复剂和埋植中空纤维化修复剂两种方法。微裂纹的破坏使微胶囊或中空纤维释放修复剂,修复剂发生化学反应,键合裂纹面,达到自修复的效果。这种方法相对比较简单,修复效果较好,但不能重复进行,而且可选用的修复剂种类有限。本征型自修复则借助于体系内存在的Diels-Alder反应、动态共价化学、双硫键反应、含有氢键的超分子结构、π-π堆叠及离子聚合物等来完成,这些特殊的分子结构所涉及的化学反应是可逆的。本征型自修复聚合物材料的制备过程较为复杂,但这种自修复可以反复多次有效,从而延长了聚合物材料的使用寿命。本文针对以上两大类自修复聚合物材料体系的特点和应用进行综述,并展望其发展方向。

An overview on the recent developments in reactive plasticizers in polymers

This review is about the reactive plasticizer. Plasticizers are small molecules with low molecular weight. These compounds typically have an esteric structure. The plasticizers reduce the glass transition temperature, and the viscosity of the polymer also enhances the flexibility and processability of polymer materials. The main problem of these additives is that, over time, they migrate from the polymeric matrix and exude to the surface of polymeric matrix. As a result, the physical and mechanical properties of the polymer are affected. Various strategies, such as increasing molecular weight of plasticizer, selection of oligomeric structure for plasticizer, and adding nanoparticles of minerals, have been investigated to reduce and eliminate migration. An approach that has recently been of great interest to researchers is the use of reactive plasticizers. In this approach, plasticizers covalently bond to the polymeric chains and prevent migration.

Recently investigated applications of polymeric materials for tissue engineering, regenerative medicine, implants, stents, and medical devices are described in the present review. Papers published during the last 2 years about polymeric materials used for preparation of various polymeric scaffolds, methods of fabrication of such scaffolds and their effectiveness in providing support for cell growth and development into various tissues and enhancing or mimicking an extracellular network (ECM's) have been cited. Papers describing the use of such polymeric materials for tissue engineering of cartilage and bones were cited. The exciting developments in the field of regenerative medicine, based on application of the self‐assembled biocompatible polymeric scaffolds for regeneration of tissues and organs are described in some detail. The use of the biocompatible and biodegradable collapsible polymeric stents, as well as the use of biocompatible, but not necessarily biodegradable polymeric materials for protective coatings of metallic stents and reservoirs of drugs, preventing restenosis and other post‐operative complications that may occur after insertion of a stent, have been reviewed. Clinical results pointing out the advantages of such treatments, as well as results indicating their limitations, have been cited. New formulas, for coating implants, stents, and other medical devices, have been discussed. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

The Potential of Microencapsulated Self-healing Materials for Microcracks Recovery in Self-healing Composite Systems: A Review

The autonomic self-healing materials based on microcapsules have made major advancements for the repairing of microcracks in polymers and polymer composite systems. Self-healing encapsulated materials have the inborn ability to heal polymeric composites after being damaged by chemical and mechanical progressions. These intelligent micro-encapsulated self-healing materials possess great capabilities for recovering the mechanical as well aesthetic properties and barrier properties of the polymeric structures. Based on real world observations and experimental data, it is believed that microcracks and microcracking in polymeric materials can result because of many chemical and physical routes and is one of the foremost critical issues for polymeric materials. Especially in polymeric coatings, these microcracks can lead towards disastrous failure, and conventional healing systems like patching and welding cannot be used to repair microcracks at such a micro-level. Self-healing materials, especially, capsule based self-healing materials is a new field sought as an alternative to the conventional repairing techniques, requiring no manual intrusion and uncovering. This review covers the basic and major aspects of the microencapsulated self-healing approach like the effect of synthesis parameters on the size of microcapsules, healing efficiency determination, and the potential of the existing developed microencapsulated agents.     

The Taming of the Maleimide: Fabrication of Maleimide‐Containing ‘Clickable’ Polymeric Materials

Functional polymers are widely employed in various areas of biomedical sciences. In order to tailor them for desired applications, facile and efficient functionalization of these polymeric materials under mild and benign conditions is important. Polymers containing reactive maleimide groups can be employed for such applications since they provide an excellent handle for conjugation of thiol‐ and diene‐containing molecules and biomolecules. Until recently, fabrication of maleimide containing polymeric materials has been challenging due to the interference from the highly reactive double bond. A Diels‐Alder/retro Diels‐Alder reaction sequence based strategy to transiently mask the maleimide group provides access to such polymeric materials. In this personal account, we summarize contributions from our group towards the fabrication and functionalization of maleimide‐containing polymeric materials over the past decade.     

Recent advances in polymer monoliths for ion-exchange chromatography

The use of polymeric materials in ion-exchange chromatography applications is advantageous because of their typically high mechanical stability and tolerance of a wide range of pH conditions. The possibility of using polymeric monoliths in ion-exchange chromatography is therefore obvious and many of the same strategies developed for polymeric particles have been adapted for use with polymeric monoliths. In this review different strategies for the synthesis of polymeric monoliths with ion-exchange functionality are discussed. The incorporation of ion-exchange functionality by co-polymerization is included, as also are different post-polymerization alterations to the monolith surface such as grafting. The formulations and strategies presented include materials intended for use in analytical separations in ion-exchange chromatography, sample pre-treatment or enrichment applications, and materials for capillary electrochromatography. Finally, examples of the use of polymeric monoliths in ion-exchange chromatography applications are included with examples published in the years 2003 to 2008.
