The synthesis of novel luminescent polymer containing p‐phenylene‐ethynylene and 9,12‐linked o‐carborane units alternately in the main chain is reported. The obtained polymer exhibits intense blue photoluminescence, providing the first insights into the optical properties of a 9,12‐disubstituted o‐carborane dye. π‐Conjugated substituent at 9 and/or 12‐positions in o‐carborane is electrically independent, and both the HOMO and the LUMO levels slightly increase, whereas LUMO of the π‐conjugated substituent at 1 and/or 2‐positions in o‐carborane decrease. Thus, it is deduced that polymers consisting of the 9,12‐linked o‐carborane unit are able to be applied as light‐emitting materials.

The hierarchical self‐assembly of an amphiphilic block copolymer, poly(N,N‐dimethylacrylamide)‐block‐polystyrene with a very short hydrophilic block (PDMA10‐b‐PS62), in large granular nanoparticles is reported. While these nanoparticles are stable in water, their disaggregation can be induced either mechanically (i.e., by applying a force via the tip of the cantilever of an atomic force microscope (AFM)) or by partial hydrolysis of the acrylamide groups. AFM force spectroscopy images show the rupture of the particle as a combination of collapse and flow, while scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images of partly hydrolyzed nanoparticles provide a clear picture of the granular structure.

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.

A novel and non‐cytotoxic self‐healing supramolecular elastomer (SE) is synthesized with small‐molecular biological acids by hydrogen‐bonding interactions. The synthesized SEs behave as rubber at room temperature without additional plasticizers or crosslinkers, which is attributed to the phase‐separated structure. The SE material exhibits outstanding self‐healing capability at room temperature and essential non‐cytotoxicity, which makes it a potential candidate for biomedical applications.

Aggregation‐induced emission (AIE) is an abnormal phenomenon that has sparked great attention for diverse applications in different fields. In particular, the fabrication and biological imaging applications of AIE‐active fluorescent organic nanoparticles (FONs) have become a focus in the emerging and promising fields. A large number of AIE‐active polymeric nanoprobes have recently been fabricated through different strategies. The advances and progress in this direction have also recently been summarized by some groups. However, the fabrication and biomedical applications of AIE‐active FONs based on carbohydrate polymers and AIE‐active dyes are quite rare and limited. In this feature article, the recently reported AIE‐active FONs with different structures and applications based on AIE‐active dyes and carbohydrate polymers are highlighted, and the major current limitations and development tendencies are also discussed.

A new method for fabricating hydrogels with intricate control over hierarchical 3D porosity using microfiber porogens is presented. Melt electrospinning writing of poly(ε‐caprolactone) is used to create the sacrificial template leading to hierarchical structuring consisting of pores inside the denser poly(2‐oxazoline) hydrogel mesh. This versatile approach provides new opportunities to create well‐defined multilevel control over interconnected pores with diameters in the lower micrometer range inside hydrogels with potential applications as cell scaffolds with tunable diffusion and transport of, e.g., nutrients, growth factors or therapeutics.

This work describes the synthesis of π‐conjugated polymers possessing arylene and 1,3‐butadiene alternating units in the main chain by the reaction of α,β‐unsaturated ester/nitrile containing γ‐H with aromatic/heteroaromatic aldehyde compound. By using 4‐(4‐formylphenyl)‐2‐butylene acid ethyl ester as a model monomer, the different polymerization conditions, including catalyst, catalyst amount, and solvent, are optimized. The polymerization of 4‐(4‐formylphenyl)‐2‐butylene acid ethyl ester is carried out by refluxing in ethanol for 72 h with 1,8‐diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec‐7‐ene (DBU) as a catalyst to give a 1,3‐butadiene‐containing π‐conjugated polymer, poly(phenylene‐1,3‐butadiene), in 84.3% yield with and / (PDI) estimated as 6172 and 1.65, respectively. Based on this new methodology, a series of π‐conjugated polymers containing 1,3‐butadiene units with different substituents are obtained in high yields. A possible mechanism is proposed for the polymerization through a six‐membered ring transition state and then a 1,5‐H shift intermediate.

A superhydrophobic polythiophene film (SSPTH) is prepared by double‐layer electrodeposition on an indium tin oxide (ITO) glass electrode. This film shows not only electroresponsive superhydrophobic features, but also high transparency compared with the usual polythiophene film. The water‐droplet adhesion on the SSPTH film can be switched between sliding and pinned states under the applied potential. More intresetingly, the change in water‐droplet adhesion results in a change in cell adsorption on the SSPTH film. The low‐adhesion (dedoped) SSPTH films can prevent Hela cell adhesion, whereas high‐adhesion (doped) SSPTH films can promote Hela cell adsorption. This controllable cell adhesion on a SSPTH film may be developed as a smart biointerface material.

A linear supramolecular polymer based on the self‐assembly of an easily available copillar[5]arene monomer is efficiently prepared, which is evidenced by the NMR spectroscopy, viscosity measurement, and DOSY experiment. The single‐crystal X‐ray analysis reveals that the polymerization of the AB‐type monomer is driven by the quadruple CH•••π interactions and one CH•••O interaction.

The electrical memory characteristics of the n‐channel organic field‐effect transistors (OFETs) employing diverse polyimide (PI) electrets are reported. The synthesized PIs comprise identical electron donor and three different building blocks with gradually increasing electron‐accepting ability. The distinct charge‐transfer capabilities of these PIs result in varied type of memory behaviors from the write‐one‐read‐many (WORM) to flash type. Finally, a prominent flexible WORM‐type transistor memory is demonstrated and shows not only promising write‐many‐read‐many (WMRM) multilevel data storage but also excellent mechanical and retention stability.

The functionalization of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles by poly(3‐hexylthiophene) (P3HT) brush is completed by the combination of a mussel inspired biomimetic anchoring group and Huisgen cyclo‐addition “click chemistry.” Herein, the direct coupling of an azide modified catechol derivative with an alkyne end‐functionalized P3HT is described. This macromolecular binding agent is used to access core@corona ZnO@P3HT with a stable and homogeneous conjugated organic corona. Preliminary photoluminescence measurement proves an efficient electron transfer from the donor P3HT to the acceptor ZnO nanoparticles upon grafting, thus demonstrating the potential of such a combination in organic electronics.

In this study, the group transfer polymerization (GTP) of the functional monomer 3‐(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate (TMSPMA) is reported to produce polymers of different architectures and topologies. TMSPMA is successfully polymerized and copolymerized with GTP to produce well‐defined (co)polymers that can be used to fabricate functional hybrid materials like hydrogels and films.

The protection of primary amines available in proteins holds great potential to introduce a plethora of diverse functionalities along the protein backbone (e.g., via its carboxylic acid or alcohol moieties) while circumventing the crosslinking issue using conventional approaches. This paper reports on a straightforward and efficient proof‐of‐concept including the chemoselective N‐tert‐butyloxycarbonylation of the primary amines in the protein gelatin (gel‐NH‐BOC), followed by introducing crosslinkable methacrylamide moieties. The reaction is performed successfully under relatively mild conditions (50 °C). Following selective protein functionalization, the deprotection is realized by adding a catalytic amount of an aqueous hydrogen chloride solution. The present communication illustrates the occurrence of a straightforward and selective deprotection procedure, which is typically required to circumvent the occurrence of acidic hydrolysis of the protein backbone. The results hold promise for a large range of biomedical applications in which the presence of primary amines is essential for preserving the biological activity.

In the last decades, metallopolymers have received great attention due to their various applications in the fields of materials and chemistry. In this article, a neutral 18‐electron exo‐substituted η4‐cyclopentadiene CpCo(I) unit‐containing polymer is prepared in a controlled/“living” fashion by combining facile click chemistry and ring‐opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP). This Co(I)‐containing polymer is further used as a heterogeneous macromolecular catalyst for atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of methyl methacrylate and styrene.

Cyclic multiblock polymers with high‐order blocks are synthesized via the combination of single‐electron transfer living radical polymerization (SET‐LRP) and copper‐catalyzed azide‐alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC). The linear α,ω‐telechelic multiblock copolymer is prepared via SET‐LRP by sequential addition of different monomers. The SET‐LRP approach allows well control of the block length and sequence as A‐B‐C‐D‐E, etc. The CuAAC is then performed to intramolecularly couple the azide and alkyne end groups of the linear copolymer and produce the corresponding cyclic copolymer. The block sequence and the cyclic topology of the resultant cyclic copolymer are confirmed by the characterization of 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, gel permeation chromatography, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry.

A double‐layer hollow fiber is fabricated where an isoporous surface of polystyrene‐block‐poly(4‐vinylpyridine) is fixed on a support layer by co‐extrusion. Due to the sulfonation of the support layer material, delamination of the two layers is suppressed without increasing the number of subsequent processing steps for isoporous composite membrane formation. Electron microscope‐energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy images unveil the existence of a high sulfur concentration in the interfacial region by which in‐process H‐bond formation between the layers is evidenced. For the very first time, our study reports a facile method to fabricate a sturdy isoporous double‐layer hollow fiber.

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.

Investigation into the mussel‐inspired polymerization of dopamine has led to the realization that other compounds possessing potential quinone structures could undergo similar self‐polymerizations in mild buffered aqueous conditions. To this end, 5‐hydroxyindazole was added to a dopamine polymerization matrix in varying amounts, to study its incorporation into a polydopamine coating of silica particles. Solid‐state 13C NMR spectroscopy confirmed the presence of the indazole in the polymer shell when coated onto silica gel. SEM and DLS analysis also confirmed that the presence of the indazole in the reaction matrix yielded monodisperse polymer‐coated particles, which retained their polymer shell upon HF etching, except when high levels of the indazole were used. Characterization data and examination of incorporation mechanism suggests that the 5‐hydroxyindazole performs the function of a chain‐terminating agent. Cytotoxicity studies of the polymer particles containing 5‐hydroxyindazole showed dramatically lower toxicity levels compared to polydopamine alone.

Herein, a novel photoinitiated polymerization‐induced self‐assembly formulation via photoinitiated reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer dispersion polymerization of glycidyl methacrylate (PGMA) in ethanol–water at room temperature is reported. It is demonstrated that conducting polymerization‐induced self‐assembly (PISA) at low temperatures is crucial for obtaining colloidal stable PGMA‐based diblock copolymer nano‐objects. Good control is maintained during the photo‐PISA process with a high rate of polymerization. The polymerization can be switched between “ON” and “OFF” in response to visible light. A phase diagram is constructed by varying monomer concentration and degree of polymerization. The PGMA‐based diblock copolymer nano‐objects can be further cross‐linked by using a bifunctional primary amine reagent. Finally, silver nanoparticles are loaded within cross‐linked vesicles via in situ reduction, exhibiting good catalytic properties.

Poly (N‐isopropylacrylamide) (pNIPAm)‐based hydrogels and hydrogel particles (microgels) have been extensively studied since their discovery and “popularization” a few decades ago. While their uses seem to have no bounds, this Feature Article is focused on their development and application for sensing small molecules, macromolecules, and biomolecules. Hydrogel/microgel‐based photonic materials with order in one, two, or three dimensions are highlighted, which exhibit optical properties that depend on the presence and concentration of various analytes.
