Abstract
Fibers, with over 100 million tons produced each year, have been widely used in various areas. Recent efforts have focused on improving mechanical properties and chemical resistance of fibers via covalent cross-linking. However, the covalently cross-linked polymers are usually insoluble and infusible, and thus fiber fabrication is difficult. Those reported require complex multiple-step preparation processes. Herein, we present a facile and effective strategy to prepare adaptable covalently cross-linked fibers by direct melt spinning of covalent adaptable networks (CANs). At processing temperature, dynamic covalent bonds are reversibly dissociated/associated and the CANs are temporarily disconnected to enable melt spinning; at the service temperature, the dynamic covalent bonds are frozen, and the CANs exhibit favorable structural stability. We demonstrate the efficiency of this strategy via dynamic oxime-urethane based CANs, and successfully prepare adaptable covalently cross-linked fibers with robust mechanical properties (maximum elongation of 2639%, tensile strength of 87.68 MPa, almost complete recovery from an elongation of 800%) and solvent resistance. Application of this technology is demonstrated by an organic solvent resistant and stretchable conductive fiber.

Abstract
Power systems and electrical grids are critical for the development of renewable energy. Electrical treeing is one of the major factors that lead to electrical damage in insulating dielectrics and decline in the reliability of power equipment and ultimately results in catastrophic failure. Here, we demonstrate that bulk epoxy damaged by electrical treeing is able to efficiently heal repeatedly to recover its original robust performance. The classical dilemma between the insulating properties and electrical-damage healability is overcome by dynamic fluorinated carbamate bonds. Moreover, the dynamic bond enables the epoxy to have admirable degradability, which is demonstrated to be used as an attractive green degradable insulation coating. When used as a matrix for fiber-reinforced composites, the reclaimed glass fibers after decomposing the epoxy maintained their original morphology and functionality. This design provides a novel approach for developing smart and green dielectrics to enhance the reliability, sustainability and lifespan of power equipment and electronics.

Abstract
In the state-of-the-art membrane industry, membranes have linear life cycles and are commonly disposed of by landfill or incineration, sacrificing their sustainability. To date, little or no thought is given in the design phase to the end-of-life management of membranes. For the first time, we have innovated high-performance sustainable membranes, which can be closed-loop recycled after long-term usage for water purification. By synergizing membrane technology and dynamic covalent chemistry, covalent adaptable networks (CANs) with thermally reversible Diels-Alder (DA) adducts were synthesized and employed to fabricate integrally skinned asymmetric membranes via the nonsolvent-induced phase separation technique. Due to the stable and reversible features of CAN, the closed-loop recyclable membranes exhibit excellent mechanical properties and thermal and chemical stabilities as well as separation performance, which are comparable to or even higher than the state-of-the-art nonrecyclable membranes. Moreover, the used membranes can be closed-loop recycled with consistent properties and separation performance by depolymerization to remove contaminants, followed by refabrication into new membranes through the dissociation and reformation of DA adducts. This study may fill in the gaps in closed-loop recycling of membranes and inspire the advancement of sustainable membranes for a green membrane industry.

Abstract
To meet more application requirements, improving mechanical properties and self-healing efficiency has become the focus of current research on self-healing PU. The competitive relationship between self-healing ability and mechanical properties cannot be avoided by a single self-healing method. To address this problem, a growing number of studies have combined dynamic covalent bonding with other self-healing methods to construct the PU structure. This review summarizes recent studies on PU materials that combine typical dynamic covalent bonds with other self-healing methods. It mainly includes four parts: hydrogen bonding, metal coordination bonding, nanofillers combined with dynamic covalent bonding and multiple dynamic covalent bond bonding. The advantages and disadvantages of different self-healing methods and their significant role in improving self-healing ability and mechanical properties in PU networks are analyzed. At the same time, the possible challenges and research directions of self-healing PU materials in the future are discussed.

Abstract
Adaptive bionic self-correcting behavior offers an attractive property for chemical systems. Here, based on the dynamic feature of imine formation, we propose a solvent-responsive strategy for smart switching between an amorphous ionic polyimine membrane and a crystalline organic molecule cage without the addition of other building blocks. To adapt to solvent environmental constraints, the aldehyde and amine components undergo self-correction to form a polymer network or a molecular cage. Studies have shown that the amorphous film can be switched in acetonitrile to generate a discrete cage with bright birefringence under polarized light. Conversely, the membrane from the cage crystal conversion can be regained in ethanol. Such a membrane-cage interconversion can be cycled continuously at least 5 times by switching the two solvents. This work builds a bridge between the polymer network and crystalline molecules and offers prospects for smart dynamic materials.

Abstract
Reversible shape-memory polymers (RSMPs) are highly desired for soft actuators due to the repeatability of deformation. Herein, a polyolefin elastomer vitrimer (POEV) was prepared by constructing a dynamic cross-linked network based on boronic ester bonds. POEV showed varied network relaxation in a wide temperature range due to hierarchical network relaxation, and then the entropy decreased and the relaxation of POEV chains was facilely controlled by temperature. The controllable relaxation of POEV by programming the temperature enabled the actuation domain with a reduction in entropy and the skeleton domain with a relatively high entropy can be built in POEV, greatly affecting the reversible shape memory effects (RSMEs). The topological rearrangement resulted from the activated exchange of dynamic covalent bonds, which enables POEV with good shape reconfigurability, and allows for complicated 3D shapes and shape-shifting on demand. More interestingly, combining the decreasing entropy of POEV chains and fully topological rearrangement tailored by temperature, hybrid aligned carbon nanotubes (CNTs) can be constructed in POEV via a two-stage training. Then, the aligned CNTs can enhance the elasticity and act as a hybrid skeleton for RSMEs, avoiding the negative impact of CNTs on the reversible actuation strain. The hierarchical network relaxation facilitates combining all these unusual properties in one shape memory network synergistically, paving new avenues for realizing smart materials with advanced RSME.

Abstract
The activity of various additives promoting siloxane equilibration reactions is examined and quantified on model compounds. We found in particular that the "superbase" phosphazene derivative P4 -t Bu can promote very fast exchanges (a few seconds at 90 °C) even at low concentration (<0.1 wt %). We demonstrate that permanent silicone networks can be transformed into reprocessable and recyclable dynamic networks by mere introduction of such additives. Annealing at high temperature degrades the additives and deactivates the dynamic features of the silicone networks, reverting them back into permanent networks. A simple rheological experiment and the corresponding model allow to extract the critical kinetic parameters to predict and control such deactivations.

Abstract
Here a new strategy of catalyst-free direct synthesis of covalent adaptable network polyurethanes (LPUs) from lignin with editable shape memory effect is reported. Using unmodified lignin, PEG, and isocyanate under the condition of the isocyanate index less than 1.0 (NCO/OH<1.0), a variety of LPUs are obtained. When NCO/OH=0.8, a stable cross-linked network can be formed (ex. the gel content of LPU50-0.8 was 98±0.3 %). The activation energy (Ea ) value of LPUs is similar to that of polyhydroxyurethanes (PHUs), at around 110 kJ mol-1 . With an increase of lignin content, the LPUs show a transition from ductile fracture to brittle fracture mode. And the mechanical properties of LPUs are significantly enhanced after extrusion processing, with the maximum modulus reaching 649±26 MPa and the maximum toughness up to 9927±111 kJ m-3 . The improvement in mechanical properties is due to the homogenization of complex cross-linked network under the powerful external force of the extruder and the lignin that originally was free in the system participated in the exchange reactions. Moreover, LPUs can also be prepared continuously in one step by using an extruder as the reactor. In addition, LPU50-0.8 has an editable shape memory effect. This study develops a novel method for the synthesis of LPU from lignin with NCO/OH<1.0, showcasing new possibilities for value-added utilization of lignin, and expands the bio-based products portfolio from biomass feedstock to help meet future green manufacturing demands.

Abstract
With the exponentially rapid development of solar-driven interfacial evaporation, evaporators with both high evaporation efficiency and recyclability are highly desirable to alleviate resource waste and environmental problems but remain challenging. Here, a monolithic evaporator was developed based on a dynamic disulfide vitrimer (a covalently cross-linked polymer network with associative exchangeable covalent bonds). Two types of solar absorbers, carbon nanotubes and oligoanilines, were simultaneously introduced to enhance the optical absorption. A high evaporation efficiency of 89.2% was achieved at 1 sun (1 kW m-2). When the evaporator was applied to solar desalination, it shows self-cleaning performance with long-term stability. Drinkable water with low ion concentrations satisfying the drinkable water levels of the World Health Organization and a high output (8.66 kg m-2, 8 h per day) was obtained, revealing great potential for practical seawater desalination. Moreover, a high-performance film material was obtained from the used evaporator via simple hot-pressing, indicating excellent fully closed-loop recyclability of the evaporator. This work provides a promising platform for high-efficiency and recyclable solar-driven interfacial evaporators.

In-situ forming dynamic covalently crosslinked nanofibers with one-pot closed-loop recyclability. Nat Commun 2023; 14:1182. [PMID: 36864024 PMCID: PMC9981754 DOI: 10.1038/s41467-023-36709-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/22/2022] [Accepted: 02/13/2023] [Indexed: 03/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Polymeric nanofibers are attractive nanomaterials owing to their high surface-area-to-volume ratio and superior flexibility. However, a difficult choice between durability and recyclability continues to hamper efforts to design new polymeric nanofibers. Herein, we integrate the concept of covalent adaptable networks (CANs) to produce a class of nanofibers ⎯ referred to dynamic covalently crosslinked nanofibers (DCCNFs) via electrospinning systems with viscosity modulation and in-situ crosslinking. The developed DCCNFs possess homogeneous morphology, flexibility, mechanical robustness, and creep resistance, as well as good thermal and solvent stability. Moreover, to solve the inevitable issues of performance degradation and crack of nanofibrous membranes, DCCNF membranes can be one-pot closed-loop recycled or welded through thermal-reversible Diels-Alder reaction. This study may unlock strategies to fabricate the next generation nanofibers with recyclable features and consistently high performance via dynamic covalent chemistry for intelligent and sustainable applications.

Abstract
As the levels of plastic use in global society have increased, it has become crucial to regulate plastics of all sizes including both microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs). Here, the published literature on the current laws passed by the US Congress and regulations developed by various federal agencies such as the US Environmental Protection Agency and the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that could be used to regulate MPs and NPs have been reviewed and analyzed. Statutes such as the Clean Water Act, the Safe Drinking Water Act, the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, and the Clean Air Act can all be used to address plastic pollution. These statutes have not been invoked for MP and NP waste in water or air. The Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act provides guidance on how the FDA should evaluate plastics use in food, food packaging, cosmetics, drug packaging, and medical devices. The FDA has recommended that acceptable levels of ingestible contaminant from recycled plastic are less than 1.5 µg/person/day, which is 476 000 times less than the possible ingested daily dose. Plastic regulation is present at the state level. States have banned plastic bags, and several cities have banned plastic straws. California is the only state beginning to focus on monitoring MPs in drinking water. The future of MP regulation in the USA should use TSCA to test the safety of plastics. The other statutes need to include MPs in their definitions. For the FDA, MPs should be redefined as contaminants-allowing tolerances to be set for MPs in food and beverages. Through minor changes in how MPs are classified, it is possible to begin to use the current statutes to understand and begin to minimize the possible effects of MPs on human health and the environment.

Abstract
Photoresponsive supramolecular polymers are well-organized assemblies based on highly oriented and reversible noncovalent interactions containing photosensitive molecules as (co-)monomers. They have attracted increasing interest in smart materials and dynamic systems with precisely controllable functions, such as light-driven soft actuators, photoresponsive fluorescent anticounterfeiting and light-triggered electronic devices. The present review discusses light-activated molecules used in photoresponsive supramolecular polymers with their main photo-induced changes, e.g., geometry, dipole moment, and chirality. Based on these distinct changes, supramolecular polymers formed by light-activated molecules exhibit photoresponsive disassembly and reassembly. As a consequence, photo-induced supramolecular polymerization, "depolymerization," and regulation of the lengths and topologies are observed. Moreover, the light-controlled functions of supramolecular polymers, such as actuation, emission, and chirality transfer along length scales, are highlighted. Furthermore, a perspective on challenges and future opportunities is presented. Besides the challenge of moving from harmful UV light to visible/near IR light avoiding fatigue, and enabling biomedical applications, future opportunities include light-controlled supramolecular actuators with helical motion, light-modulated information transmission, optically recyclable materials, and multi-stimuli-responsive supramolecular systems.

Abstract
Recently, self-healing materials have evolved to recover specific functions such as electronic, magnetic, acoustic, structural or hierarchical, and biological properties. In particular, the development of self-healing protection coatings that can be applied to lens components in vision systems such as augmented reality glasses, actuators, and image and time-of-flight sensors has received intensive attention from the industry. In the present study, we designed polythiourethane dynamic networks containing a photothermal N-butyl-substituted diimmonium borate dye to demonstrate their potential applications in self-healing protection coatings for the optical components of vision systems. The optimized self-healing coating exhibited a high transmittance (∼95% in the visible-light region), tunable refractive index (up to 1.6), a moderate Abbe number (∼35), and high surface hardness (>200 MPa). When subjected to near-infrared (NIR) radiation (1064 nm), the surface temperature of the coating increased to 75 °C via the photothermal effect and self-healing of the scratched coatings occurred via a dynamic thiourethane exchange reaction. The coating was applied to a lens protector, and its self-healing performance was demonstrated. The light signal distorted by the scratched surface of the coating was perfectly restored after NIR-induced self-healing. The photoinduced self-healing process can also autonomously occur under sunlight with low energy consumption.

Abstract
Implementing transient processes in networks of dynamic molecules holds great promise for developing new functional behaviours. Here we report that trichloroacetic acid can be used to temporarily rearrange networks of dynamic imine-based metal complexes towards new equilibrium states, forcing them to express complexes otherwise unfavourable in their initial equilibrium states. Basic design principles were determined for the creation of such networks. Where a complex distribution of products was obtained in the initial equilibrium state of the system, the transient rearrangement temporarily yielded a simplified output, forcing a more structured distribution of products. Where a single complex was obtained in the initial equilibrium state of the system, the transient rearrangement temporarily modified the properties of this complex. By doing so, the mechanical properties of an helical macrocyclic complex could be temporarily altered by rearranging it into a [2]catenane.

Abstract
Self-healing materials open new prospects for more sustainable technologies with improved material performance and devices' longevity. We present an overview of the recent developments in the field of intrinsically self-healing polymers, the broad class of materials based mostly on polymers with dynamic covalent and noncovalent bonds. We describe the current models of self-healing mechanisms and discuss several examples of systems with different types of dynamic bonds, from various hydrogen bonds to dynamic covalent bonds. The recent advances indicate that the most intriguing results are obtained on the systems that have combined different types of dynamic bonds. These materials demonstrate high toughness along with a relatively fast self-healing rate. There is a clear trade-off relationship between the rate of self-healing and mechanical modulus of the materials, and we propose design principles of polymers toward surpassing this trade-off. We also discuss various applications of intrinsically self-healing polymers in different technologies and summarize the current challenges in the field. This review intends to provide guidance for the design of intrinsic self-healing polymers with required properties.

Abstract
Shape memory polymers (SMPs) have attracted wide attention over the past few decades due to their fantastic applications in modern life. Nevertheless, excellent self-healing properties, recyclability, solid-state plasticity, and reversible shape-switching ability are necessary but can rarely be satisfied in one material. Herein, we report multifunctional SMPs by constructing a dynamic boronic ester bond cross-linking network using sustainable Eucommia ulmoides gum as a raw material. Thanks to the crystallization and wide melting temperature range, these kinds of SMPs have thermal-triggered one-way shape memory performance and show two-way shape memory properties, whether under constant stress or stress-free conditions. Owing to the dynamic nature of the boronic ester bond, it exhibits good self-healing properties (near 100% at 80 °C), shape reconfigurability, and chemical recyclability. In addition, by incorporating multiwalled carbon nanotubes, the formed composite is responsive to 808 nm near-infrared light. Its applications are further exploited, including photoresponsive actuators, vascular stents, and light-driven switches. This paper provides a simple way for fabricating multifunctional SMPs, and the as-prepared materials have potential applications in diverse fields, such as biomedicine, intelligent sensing, and soft robotics.

Abstract
The chemical upcycling of polymers is an emerging strategy to transform post-consumer waste into higher-value chemicals and materials. However, on account of the high stability of the chemical bonds that constitute their main chains, the chemical modification of many polymers proves to be difficult. Here, we report a versatile approach for the upcycling of linear and cross-linked polyureas, which are widely used because of their high chemical stability. The treatment of these polymers or their composites with acetylacetone affords di-vinylogous amide-terminated compounds in good yield. These products can be reacted with aromatic isocyanates, and the resulting aminoketoenamide bonds are highly dynamic at elevated temperatures. We show here that this conversion scheme can be exploited for the preparation of dynamic covalent poly(aminoketoenamide) networks, which are healable and reprocessable through thermal treatment without any catalyst.

Abstract
Shear-thickening materials have been widely applied in fields related to smart impact protection due to their ability to absorb large amounts of energy during sudden shock. Shear-thickening materials with multifunctional properties are expanding their applications in wearable electronics, where tactile sensors require interconnected networks. However, current bifunctional shear-thickening cross-linked polymer materials depend on supramolecular networks or slightly dynamic covalently cross-linked networks, which usually exhibit lower energy-absorption density than the highly dynamic covalently cross-linked networks. Herein, we employed boric ester-based covalent adaptive networks (CANs) to elucidate the shear-thickening property and the mechanism of energy dissipation during sudden shock. Guided by the enhanced energy-absorption capability of double networks and the requirements of the conductive networks for the wearable tactile sensors, tungsten powders (W) were incorporated into the boric ester polymer matrix to form a second network. The W networks make the materials stiffer, with a 13-fold increase in Young's modulus. Additionally, the energy-absorption capacity increased nearly 7 times. Finally, we applied these excellent energy-absorbing and conductive materials to bifunctional shock-protective and strain rate-dependent tactile sensors. Considering the self-healable and recyclable properties, we believe that these anti-impact and tactile sensing materials will be of great interest in wearable devices, smart impact-protective systems, post-tunable materials, etc.

Abstract
Boronic esters prepared by condensation of boronic acids and diols have been widely used as dynamic covalent bonds in the synthesis of both discrete assemblies and polymer networks. In this study we investigate the potential of a new dynamic-covalent motif, derived from TetraAzaADamantanes (TAADs), with their adamantane-like triol structure, in boronic ester-based covalent adaptable networks (CANs). The TetraAzaADamantane-boronic ester linkage has recently been reported as a more hydrolytically stable boronic ester variant, while still having a dynamic pH response: small-molecule studies found little exchange at neutral pH, while fast exchange occurred at pH 3.8. In this work, bi- and trifunctional TetraAzaADamantane linkers were synthesised and crosslinked with boronic acids to form rubber-like materials, with a Young's modulus of 1.75 MPa. The dynamic nature of the TetraAzaADamantane networks was confirmed by stress relaxation experiments, revealing Arrhenius-like behaviour, with a corresponding activation energy of 142 ± 10 kJ/mol. Increasing the crosslinking density of the material from 10% to 33% resulted in reduced relaxation times, as is consistent with a higher degree of crosslinking within the dynamic networks. In contrast to the reported accelerating effect of acid addition to small-molecule TetraAzaADamantane complexes, within the polymer network the addition of acid increased relaxation times, suggesting unanticipated interactions between the acid and the polymer that cannot occur in the corresponding small-molecules analogues. The obtained boronate-TetraAzaADamantane materials were thermally stable up to 150°C. This thermal stability, in combination with the intrinsically dynamic bonds inside the polymer network, allowed these materials to be reprocessed and healed after damage by hot-pressing.

Abstract
Bio-based polyurethanes are promising for the controlled release of nutrients and fertilizers, but their toughness and plasticity need to be improved. We developed a smooth, dense, elastic, and indestructible bio-based polyurethane (BPU) coating with a nutrient controlled release ∼150% superior, a tensile strength ∼300% higher, and a toughness ∼1200% higher than those for the original BPU coating. Through a one-step reaction of soybean oil polyols (accounting for more than 60%), isocyanate, and benzil dioxime, the dynamic covalent network based on oxime-carbamate replaces part of irreversible covalent cross-linking. The dynamic fracture-bonding reaction in the modified coating BPU can effectively promote the hydrogen bond recombination and oxime-carbamate chain migration in the coating process, which avoids the structural defects caused by coating tear and fertilizer collision. This work provides a simple and versatile strategy for building controlled-release fertilizer coatings.

Abstract
Polymer networks built out of dynamic covalent bonds offer the potential to translate the control and tunability of chemical reactions to macroscopic physical properties. Under conditions at which these reactions occur, the topology of covalent adaptable networks (CANs) can rearrange, meaning that they can flow, self-heal, be remolded, and respond to stimuli. Materials with these properties are necessary to fields ranging from sustainability to tissue engineering; thus the conditions and time scale of network rearrangement must be compatible with the intended use. The mechanical properties of CANs are based on the thermodynamics and kinetics of their constituent bonds. Therefore, strategies are needed that connect the molecular and macroscopic worlds. In this Perspective, we analyze structure-reactivity-property relationships for several classes of CANs, illustrating both general design principles and the predictive potential of linear free energy relationships (LFERs) applied to CANs. We discuss opportunities in the field to develop quantitative structure-reactivity-property relationships and open challenges.

Abstract
Dynamic bonds introduce unique properties such as self-healing, recyclability, shape memory, and malleability to polymers. Significant efforts have been made to synthesize a variety of dynamic linkers, creating a diverse library of materials. In addition to the development of new dynamic chemistries, fine-tuning of dynamic bonds has emerged as a technique to modulate dynamic properties. This Review highlights approaches for controlling the timescales of dynamic bonds in polymers. Particularly, eight dynamic bonds are considered, including urea/urethanes, boronic esters, Thiol-Michael exchange, Diels-Alder adducts, transesterification, imine bonds, coordination bonds, and hydrogen bonding. This Review emphasizes how structural modifications and external factors have been used as tools to tune the dynamic character of materials. Finally, this Review proposes strategies for tailoring the timescales of dynamic bonds in polymer materials through both kinetic effects and modulating bond thermodynamics.

Abstract
Incorporating a pattern-memorizing surface into a multi-functional shape memory polymer (SMP) offers various extraordinary opportunities for their engineering applications. However, current memory-patterned approaches prepared by artificial loading are at the cost of initial balance, whose potential is greatly limited by the internal relationship between thermodynamic equilibrium and the entropy-driven pattern-memorizing cycle. Here, a robust yet effective strategy is presented for fabricating a spontaneous pattern on a poly(styrene-block-butadiene-block-styrene) (SBS)-based SMP with a gradient crosslinking network via molecular diffusion for equilibrium. Benefiting from the photo-induced diffusion of maleimide, the resulting steady-state pattern as a permanent shape ensures the recovery of morphology, and the gradient network formed by the diffusion-regulated spatial Diels-Alder (D-A) crosslinking reaction makes the pattern memory cycle from existence to elimination possible. Furthermore, taking advantage of an uneven structural network, the shape reconfigurations from 2D patterned sheets to 3D configurations with a patterned surface can be achieved conveniently through a shape memory effect, simplifying programming setups. In addition, this type of 3D shape also can shift back to a 2D patterned film via an inverse D-A decrosslinking reaction upon thermal treatment. This straightforward approach for fabricating a pattern of a single layer on an SMP surface with a spatial gradient network opens a new avenue for functional smart materials, which expands the technological perspectives in many fields of flexible electronics, smart actuators, switching sensors and soft robotics.

Abstract
Dynamic covalent polymers of different topology have been synthesized from an aromatic dialdehyde and α,ω-dinitroalkanes via the nitroaldol reaction. All dinitroalkanes yielded dynamers with the dialdehyde, where the length of the dinitroalkane chain played a vital role in determining the structure of the final products. For longer dinitroalkanes, linear dynamers were produced, where the degree of polymerization reached a plateau at higher feed concentrations. In the reactions involving 1,4-dinitrobutane and 1,5-dinitropentane, specific macrocycles were formed through depolymerization of the linear chains, further driven by precipitation. At lower temperature, the same systemic self-sorting effect was also observed for the 1,6-dinitrohexane-based dynamers. Moreover, the dynamers showed a clear adaptive behavior, displaying depolymerization and rearrangement of the dynamer chains in response to alternative building blocks as external stimuli.

Abstract
Hydrogel electronics have attracted growing interest for emerging applications in personal healthcare management, human-machine interaction, etc. Herein, a "doping then gelling" strategy to synthesize supramolecular PANI/PAA hydrogel with a specific strand entangled network is proposed, by doping the PANI with acrylic acid (AA) monomers to avoid PANI aggregation. The high-density electrostatic interaction between PAA and PANI chains serves as a dynamic bond to initiate the strand entanglement, enabling PAA/PANI hydrogel with ultra-stretchability (2830%), high breaking strength (120 kPa), and rapid self-healing properties. Moreover, the PAA/PANI hydrogel-based sensor with a high strain sensitivity (gauge factor = 12.63), a rapid responding time (222 ms), and a robust conductivity-based sensing behavior under cyclic stretching is developed. A set of strain sensing applications to precisely monitor human movements is also demonstrated, indicating a promising application prospect as wearable devices.

Abstract
The functionalization and performance improvement of supramolecular hydrogels are very important for their application in the wound dressing field. Inspired by the role of lignin in plant cell walls, sulfonated lignin is introduced into the supramolecular hydrogel to improve functionality, mechanical strength, and biological activity. According to the chemical structure characteristics of the sulfonated lignin and the requirements for wound dressing, a novel polymer system is designed and successfully synthesized to cooperate with the sulfonated lignin to form the supramolecular hydrogel dressings. The introduction of the sulfonated lignin can effectively improve the mechanical strength, self-healing property, antioxidant activity, and biological activity of the obtained supramolecular hydrogel dressings. In the rat wound healing model experiment, the supramolecular hydrogel dressings can maintain the moist environment on the wound surface, clean up the excretion of wound tissue, promote wound healing, and reduce the occurrence of inflammation. This supramolecular hydrogel dressing shows obvious potential for wound management and treatment by a facile and effective approach and has great promise for long-term application of wound dressings. This strategy for designing polymers according to the chemical structure characteristics of the sulfonated lignin and the application requirements has reference value for further development of biomass-based compound materials.

Abstract
Addressing the conflict between achieving high mechanical properties and room-temperature self-healing ability is extremely significant to achieving a breakthrough in the application of self-healing materials. Therefore, inspired by natural spider silk and nacre, a room-temperature self-healing supramolecular material with ultrahigh strength and toughness is developed by synergistically incorporating flexible disulfide bonds and dynamic sextuple hydrogen bonds (H-bonds) into polyurethanes (PUs). Simultaneously, abundant H-bonds are introduced at the interface between graphene oxide nanosheets with dynamic multiple H-bonds and the PU matrix to afford strong interfacial interactions. The resulting urea-containing PU material with an inverse artificial nacre structure has a record mechanical strength (78.3 MPa) and toughness (505.7 MJ m-3), superior tensile properties (1273.2% elongation at break), and rapid room-temperature self-healing abilities (88.6% at 25 °C for 24 h), forming the strongest room-temperature self-healing elastomer reported to date and thus upending the previous understanding of traditional self-healing materials. In addition, this bionic PU-graphene oxide network endows the fabricated flexible intelligent robot with functional repair and shape memory capabilities, thus providing prospects for the fabrication of flexible functional devices.

Abstract
While the Michael addition has been employed for more than 130 years for the synthesis of a vast diversity of compounds, the reversibility of this reaction when heteronucleophiles are involved has been generally less considered. First applied to medicinal chemistry, the reversible character of the hetero-Michael reactions has recently been explored for the synthesis of Covalent Adaptable Networks (CANs), in particular the thia-Michael reaction and more recently the aza-Michael reaction. In these cross-linked networks, exchange reactions take place between two Michael adducts by successive dissociation and association steps. In order to understand and precisely control the exchange in these CANs, it is necessary to get an insight into the critical parameters influencing the Michael addition and the dissociation rates of Michael adducts by reconsidering previous studies on these matters. This review presents the progress in the understanding of the thia-Michael reaction over the years as well as the latest developments and plausible future directions to prepare CANs based on this reaction. The potential of aza-Michael reaction for CANs application is highlighted in a specific section with comparison with thia-Michael-based CANs.

Abstract
Lipid-based boundary layers formed on liposome-containing hydrogels can facilitate lubrication. However, these boundary layers can be damaged by shear, resulting in decreased lubrication. Here, a shear-responsive boundary-lubricated drug-loaded hydrogel is created by incorporating celecoxib (CLX)-loaded liposomes within dynamic covalent bond-based hyaluronic acid (HA) hydrogels (CLX@Lipo@HA-gel). The dynamic cross-linked network enables the hydrogel to get restructured in response to shear, and the HA matrix allows the accumulation of internal liposome microreservoirs on the sliding surfaces, which results in the formation of boundary layers to provide stable lubrication. Moreover, hydration shells formed surrounding the hydrogel can retard the degradation process, thus helping in sustaining lubrication. Furthermore, in vitro and in vivo experiments found that CLX@Lipo@HA-gels can maintain anabolic-catabolic balance, alleviate cartilage wear, and attenuate osteoarthritis progression by delivering CLX and shear-responsive boundary lubrication. Overall, CLX@Lipo@HA-gels can serve as shear-responsive boundary lubricants and drug-delivery vehicles to alleviate friction-related diseases like osteoarthritis.

Abstract
Phenyl tellurosulfide (PhS-TePh) was used to study the redox activity of the S-Te bond in lithium batteries. PhS-TePh formed a dynamic covalent network during lithiation, which provided a balance between responsiveness and stability to facilitate ion and electron transfer, enabling Li/PhS-TePh cells to achieve stable cycling and excellent rate performance in dilute electrolyte.
