Abstract
The characteristics of multi-hydroxyl structure and strong hydrogen bonding in polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) make its melting point close to its decomposition temperature, causing melt-processing difficulty. In this work, following the plasticization of small-molecule primary plasticizer acetamide, lignin was demonstrated as a green secondary plasticizer in realizing the melt processing and simultaneous reinforcement of PVA. During the plasticization process, lignin was able to combine with the hydroxyl groups of PVA, so as to destroy the hydrogen bonds and regularity of the PVA chains. The synergistic plasticization effect of lignin dramatically reduced the melting point of PVA from 185 °C to 151 °C. The thermal processing window of PVA composites was expanded from 50 °C to roughly 80 °C after introducing lignin. In contrast to acetamide, the addition of lignin significantly increased the tensile strength and Young's modulus of the composites to 71 MPa and 1.34 GPa, respectively. Meanwhile, lignin helped to hinder the migration of acetamide via hydrogen bonds. With the addition of lignin, the composites also displayed enhanced hydrophobicity and excellent UV shielding performance. The strategy of synergistic plasticization of lignin provides a feasible basis for the practical application of lignin in melt-processable PVA materials with good comprehensive properties.

Lee JY, Shin HH, Cho C, Ryu JH. Effect of Tannic Acid Concentrations on Temperature-Sensitive Sol-Gel Transition and Stability of Tannic Acid/Pluronic F127 Composite Hydrogels. Gels 2024; 10:256. [PMID: 38667675 PMCID: PMC11048884 DOI: 10.3390/gels10040256] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/11/2024] [Revised: 03/29/2024] [Accepted: 04/02/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Recently, interest in polyphenol-containing composite adhesives for various biomedical applications has been growing. Tannic acid (TA) is a polyphenolic compound with advantageous properties, including antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. Additionally, TA contains multiple hydroxyl groups that exhibit biological activity by forming hydrogen bonds with proteins and biomacromolecules. Furthermore, TA-containing polymer composites exhibit excellent tissue adhesion properties. In this study, the gelation behavior and adhesion forces of TA/Pluronic F127 (TA/PluF) composite hydrogels were investigated by varying the TA and PluF concentrations. PluF (above 16 wt%) alone showed temperature-responsive gelation behavior because of the closely packed micelle aggregates. After the addition of a small amount of TA, the TA/PluF hydrogels showed thermosensitive behavior similar to that of PluF hydrogels. However, the TA/PluF hydrogels containing more than 10 wt% TA completely suppressed the thermo-responsive gelation kinetics of PluF, which may have been due to the hydrogen bonds between TA and PluF. In addition, TA/PluF hydrogels with 40 wt% TA showed excellent tissue adhesion properties and bursting pressure in porcine intestinal tissues. These results are expected to aid in understanding the use of mixtures of TA and thermosensitive block copolymers to fabricate adhesive hydrogels for versatile biomedical applications.

Abstract
Supramolecular polymer networks (SPNs), crosslinked by noncovalent bonds, have emerged as reorganizable and recyclable polymeric materials with unique functionality. However, poor stability is an imperative challenge faced by SPNs, because SPNs are susceptible to heat, water, and/or solvents due to the dynamic and reversible nature of noncovalent bonds. Herein, the design of a noncovalent cooperative network (NCoN) to simultaneously stabilize and reinforce SPNs is reported, resulting in an ultrastable, superrobust, and recyclable SPN. The NCoN is constructed by multiplying the H-bonding sites and tuning the conformation/geometry of the H-bonding segment to optimize the multivalence cooperativity of H-bonds. The rationally designed H-bonding segment with high conformational compliance favors the formation of tightly packed H-bond arrays comprising higher-density and stronger H-bonds. Consequently, the H-bonded crosslinks in the NCoN display a covalent crosslinking effect but retain on-demand dynamics and reversibility. The resultant ultrastable SPN not only displays remarkable resistance to heat up to 120 °C, water soaking, and a broad spectrum of solvents, but also possesses a superhigh true stress at break (1.1 GPa) and an ultrahigh toughness (406 MJ m-3 ). Despite the covalent-network-like stability, the SPN is recyclable through activating its reversibility in a high-polarity solvent heated to a threshold temperature.

Abstract
Injectable hydrogel has attracted appealing attention for skin wound treatment. Although multifunctional injectable hydrogels can be prepared by introducing bioactive ingredients with antibacterial and anti-inflammatory capabilities, their preparation remains complicated. Herein, a polyphenol-based supramolecular injectable hydrogel (PBSIH) based on polyphenol gallic acid and biological macromolecule sodium alginate is developed as a wound dressing to accelerate wound healing. We show that such PBSIH can be rapidly formed within 15 s by mixing the sodium alginate and gallic acid solutions based on the hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions. The PBSIH shows excellent cytocompatibility, antibacterial, and antioxidant properties, which enhance infected wound healing by inhibiting bacterial infection and alleviating inflammation after treatment of 11 days. Moreover, we show that the preparative strategies of injectable supramolecular hydrogels can be extended to other polyphenols, including protocatechuic and tannic acids. This study provides a facile yet highly effective method to design injectable polyphenol- sodium alginate hydrogel for wound dressing based on naturally bioactive ingredients.

Abstract
Herein, the fabrication of amphibious polymer materials with outstanding mechanical performances, both underwater and in the air is reported. A polyvinyl alcohol/poly(2-methoxyethylacrylate) (PVA/PMEA) composite with multiscale nanostructures is prepared by combining solvent exchange and thermal annealing strategies, which contributes to nanophase separation with rigid PVA-rich and soft PMEA-rich phases and high-density crystalline domains of PVA chains, respectively. Benefiting from the multiscale nanostructure, the PVA/PMEA hydrogel demonstrates excellent stability in harsh (such as acidic, alkaline, and saline) aqueous solutions, as well as superior mechanical behavior with a breaking strength of up to 34.8 MPa and toughness of up to 214.2 MJ m-3 . Dehydrating the PVA/PMEA hydrogel results in an extremely robust plastic with a breaking strength of 65.4 MPa and toughness of 430.9 MJ m-3 . This study provides a promising phase-structure engineering route for constructing high-performance polymer materials for complex load-bearing environments.

Abstract
Solid-phase molecular self-assembly (SPMSA) is emerging as an efficient approach, leading to scale-span self-assembled supramolecular films. With SPMSA, freestanding macroscopic supramolecular films can be formed upon mechanically pressing the precipitates formed with polyelectrolytes and oppositely charged surfactants. Herein, we report that the film formation ability and the mechanical strength of the resultant film depend highly on the surfactant chain lengths and the molecular weight of polyelectrolytes. A coarse-grained molecular dynamics study revealed that the longer surfactant chains are beneficial for the ordered assembly of surfactant bilayers in the film, whereas the larger molecular weight of PE favors the enhanced mechanical strength of the film by promoting the long-range order of the surfactant bilayers. The current results disclosed the physical insight of the surfactant chain length and the molecular weight of polyelectrolytes into the film structure and mechanical strength, which is of practical importance in guiding the creation of SPMSA materials.

Abstract
Hydrogel-based evaporators are a promising strategy to obtain freshwater from seawater and sewage. However, the time-consuming and energy-consuming methods used in hydrogel preparation, as well as their limited scalability, are major factors that hinder the development of a hydrogel-based evaporator. Herein, a facile and scalable strategy was designed to prepare a hydrogel-coated evaporator to realize efficient solar-driven water evaporation. The hydrogel coating layer is composed of a robust 3D network formed by tannic acid (TA) and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) through a hydrogen bond. With the assistance of TA surface modifier, carbon black (CB) is uniformly distributed within the hydrogel matrix, endowing the coating with remarkable photothermal properties. In addition, Fe3+ is deposited on the surface of the hydrogel coating through metal coordination with TA, further improving the light absorption of the coating. Due to the synergistic effect of CB and Fe3+, the hydrogel-coated foam exhibited excellent photothermal properties. The water evaporation rate reached 3.64 kg m-2 h-1 under 1 sun irradiation. Because of the hydration ability of PVA hydrogel and the large porous structure of the foam, the hydrogel-coated foam demonstrated excellent antifouling performance and salt resistance. This study provides a facile method for designing and manufacturing high-performance solar-driven water evaporation materials.

Abstract
The management of infected wounds is still an intractable challenge in clinic. Development of antibacterial wound dressing is of great practical significance for wound management. Herein, a natural-derived antibacterial drug, tannic acid (TA), was incorporated into the electrospun polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) fiber (TA/PVA fiber, 952 ± 40 nm in diameter). TA worked as a cross-linker via hydrogen bonding with PVA to improve the physicochemical properties of the fiber and to reach a sustained drug release (88% release of drug at 48 h). Improved mechanical property (0.8-1.2 MPa) and computational simulation validated the formation of the hydrogen bonds between TA and PVA. Moreover, the antibacterial and anti-inflammatory characteristics of TA laid the foundation for the application of TA/PVA fiber in repairing infected wounds. Meanwhile, in vitro studies proved the high hemocompatibility and cytocompatibility of TA/PVA fiber. Further in vivo animal investigation showed that the TA/PVA fiber promoted the repair of infected wound by inhibiting the bacterial growth, promoting granulation formation, and collagen matrix deposition, accelerating angiogenesis, and inducing M2 macrophage polarization within 14 days. All the data demonstrated that the TA cross-linked fiber would be a potent dressing for bacteria-infected wound healing.

Abstract
Flexible strain sensors based on conductive hydrogels have profound implications for wearable electronics and health-monitoring systems. However, such sensors still need to integrate with energy providing devices to drive their functions. Herein, we develop a soaking-free polyacrylamide/carboxymethyl cellulose/tannic acid (PAAM/CMC/TA) hydrogel containing 2 M ZnSO4 + 0.1 M MnSO4 electrolyte for a novel zinc-ion battery-type self-powered strain sensing system. The synthesized hydrogel possesses desirable stretchability (tensile strain/stress of 622%/132 kPa), self-healing and self-adhesive properties, as well as good ionic conductivity (0.76 ± 0.04 S m-1). A mechanically durable Zn-MnO2 battery is developed using the PAAM/CMC/TA hydrogel and it can deliver a high specific capacity (223.0 mA h g-1) and maintain stable energy outputs under severe mechanical deformations. The electrochemical behavior of the battery can recover even after several self-healing cycles. Due to the excellent strain and pressure sensing properties of the PAAM/CMC/TA hydrogel, the battery combined with a fixed resistor served as a self-powered wearable sensing device, which could translate different human movements into distinguishable electrical signals without an external power supply. Our work provides guidance for the development of next-generation self-powered sensors.

Abstract
Assembly of nanoparticles into macroscopic materials with mechanical robustness, green processability, and recastable ability is an important and challenging task in materials science and nanotechnology. As an emerging nanoparticle with superior properties, macroscopic materials assembled from carbon dots will inherit their properties and further offer collective properties; however, macroscopic materials assembled from carbon dots solely remain unexplored. Here we report macroscopic films assembled from carbon dots modified by ureido pyrimidinone. These films show tunable fluorescence inherited from carbon dots. More importantly, these films exhibit collective properties including self-healing, re-castability, and superior mechanical properties, with Young's modulus over 490 MPa and breaking strength over 30 MPa. The macroscopic films maintain original mechanical properties after several cycles of recasting. Through scratch healing and welding experiments, these films show good self-healing properties under mild conditions. Moreover, the molecular dynamics simulation reveals that the interplay of interparticle and intraparticle hydrogen bonding controls mechanical properties of macroscopic films. Notably, these films are processed into diverse shapes by an eco-friendly hydrosetting method. The methodology and results in this work shed light on the exploration of functional macroscopic materials assembled from nanoparticles and will accelerate innovative developments of nanomaterials in practical applications.

Bioinspired hydrogels have demonstrated multiple superiorities over traditional wound dressings for wound healing applications. However, the fabrication of bioinspired hydrogel-based wound dressings with desired functionalities always requires multiple successive steps, time-consuming processes, and/or sophisticated protocols, plaguing their clinical applications. Here, a facile one-pot strategy is developed to prepare a skin-inspired multifunctional hydrogel within 30 min by incorporating elastin (an essential functional component of the dermal extracellular matrix), tannic acid, and chitosan into the covalently cross-linked poly(acrylamide) network through noncovalent interactions. The resulting hydrogel exhibits a Young's modulus (ca. 36 kPa) comparable to that of human skin, a high elongation-at-break (ca. 1550%), a satisfactory tensile strength (ca. 61 kPa), and excellent elastic self-restorability, enabling the hydrogel to synchronously and conformally deform with human skin when used as wound dressings. Importantly, the hydrogel displays a self-adhesive property to skin tissues with an appropriate bonding strength (ca. 55 kPa measured on intact porcine skin), endowing the hydrogel with the ability to rapidly self-adhere to intact human skin, sealing the wound surface and also easily being removed without residue left or trauma caused to the skin. The hydrogel also possesses remarkable antibacterial activity, antioxidant capability, and hemocompatibility. All of these collective beneficial properties enable the hydrogel to significantly accelerate the wound healing process, outperforming the commercial wound dressings.

Abstract
Self-healing, thermoresponsive hydrogels with a triple network (TN) were obtained by copolymerizing N-isopropyl acryl amide (NiPAAm) with polyvinyl alkohol (PVA) functionalized with methacrylic acid and N,N'-methylene bis(acryl amide) crosslinker in the presence of low amounts (<1 wt.%) of tannic acid (TA). The final gels were obtained by crystalizing the PVA in a freeze-thaw procedure. XRD, DCS, and SEM imaging indicate that the crystallinity is lower and the size of the PVA crystals is smaller at higher TA concentrations. A gel with 0.5 wt.% TA has an elongation at a break of 880% at a tension of 1.39 MPa. It has the best self-healing efficiency of 81% after cutting and losing the chemical network. Step-sweep strain experiments show that the gel has thixotropic properties, which are related to the TA/PVA part of the triple network. The low amount of TA leaves the gel with good thermal responsiveness (equilibrium swelling ratio of 13.3). Swelling-deswelling loop tests show enhanced dimensional robustness of the hydrogel, with a substantial constancy after two cycles.

Abstract
Self-sensing actuators are critical to artificial robots with biomimetic proprio-/exteroception properties of biological neuromuscular systems. Existing add-on approaches, which physically blend heterogeneous sensor/actuator components, fall short of yielding satisfactory solutions, considering their suboptimal interfaces, poor adhesion, and electronic/mechanical property mismatches. Here, a single homogeneous material platform is reported by creating a silver-polymer framework (SPF), thus realizing the seamless sensing-actuation unification. The SPF-enabled elastomer is highly stretchable (1200%), conductive (0.076 S m-1 ), and strong (0.76 MPa in-strength), where the stretchable polymer matrix synthesis and in situ silver nanoparticles reduction are accomplished simultaneously. Benefiting from the multimodal sensing capability from its architecture itself (mechanical and thermal cues), self-sensing actuation (proprio-deformations and external stimuli perceptions) is achieved for the SPF-based pneumatic actuator, alongside an excellent load-lifting attribute (up to 3700 times its own weight), substantiating its advantage of the unified sensing-actuation feature in a single homogenous material. In view of its human somatosensitive muscular systems imitative functionality, the reported SPF bodes well for use with next-generation functional tissues, including artificial skins, human-machine interfaces, self-sensing robots, and otherwise dynamic materials.

Abstract
Plasmonic holography is generally regarded as an effective technology for 3D display that meets the requirements of the human visual system. However, low readout stability and large cross talk in the frequency field during a plasmonic photo-dissolution reaction set a huge obstacle for application of color holography. Herein, we propose a new, to the best of our knowledge, route toward producing exciting frequency sensitive holographic-inscription based on plasmonic nano-Ag adaptive growth. Donor-molecule-doped plasmonic polymers on polyethylene terephthalate substrates exhibit wide spectral response range, accurate optical frequency sensing, and bending durability. The resonant plasmonic particles act as optical antennas and transfer energy to surrounding organic matrices for nanocluster production and non-resonant particle growth. The surface relief hologram is also highly dependent on the excitation frequency, so we successfully obtain a controllable cross-periodic structure with amplitude/phase mixed information, as well as color holographic display. This work provides a bright way to high-density storage, information steganography, and virtual/augmented reality.

Abstract
High-performance elastomers have gained significant interest because of their wide applications in industry and our daily life. However, it remains a great challenge to fabricate elastomers simultaneously integrating ultra-high mechanical strength, toughness, and excellent healing and recycling capacities. In this study, ultra-strong, healable, and recyclable elastomers are fabricated by dynamically cross-linking copolymers composed of rigid polyimide (PI) segments and soft poly(urea-urethane) (PUU) segments with hydrogen bonds. The elastomers, which are denoted as PIPUU, have a record-high tensile strength of ≈142 MPa and an extremely high toughness of ≈527 MJ m-3 . The structure of the PIPUU elastomer contains hydrogen-bond-cross-linked elastic matrix and homogenously dispersed rigid nanostructures. The rigid PI segments self-assemble to generate phase-separated nanostructures that serve as nanofillers to significantly strengthen the elastomers. Meanwhile, the elastic matrix is composed of soft PUU segments cross-linked with reversible hydrogen bonds, which largely enhance the strength and toughness of the elastomer. The dynamically cross-linked PIPUU elastomers can be healed and recycled to restore their original mechanical strength. Moreover, because of the excellent mechanical performance and the hydrophobic PI segments, the PIPUU elastomers are scratch-, puncture-, and water-resistant.

Abstract
A pseudo-capacitor with transient behavior is applied in implantable, disposable, and bioresorbable devices, incorporating an Na ion-doped bioderived ionic liquid, molybdenum trioxide (MoO3 )-covered molybdenum foil, and silk sheet as the electrolyte, electrode, and separator, respectively. Sodium lactate is dissolved in choline lactate as a source of Na ions. The Experimental results reveal that the Na ions are intercalated into the van der Waals gaps in MoO3 , and the pseudo-capacitor shows an areal capacitance (1.5 mF cm-2 ) that is three times larger than that without the Na ion. The fast ion diffusion of the electrolyte and the low resistance of the MoO3 and Mo interface result in an equivalent series resistance of 96 Ω. A cycle test indicates that the pseudo-capacitor exhibited a high capacitance retention of 82.8% after 10 000 cycles. The transient behavior is confirmed by the dissolution of the pseudo-capacitor into phosphate-buffered saline solution after 101 days. Potential applications of transient pseudo-capacitors include electronics without the need for device retrieval after use, including smart agriculture, implantable, and wearable devices.

Abstract
Developing bioelectronics that retains their long-term functionalities in the human body during daily activities is a current critical issue. To accomplish this, robust tissue adaptability and biointerfacing of bioelectronics should be achieved. Hydrogels have emerged as promising materials for bioelectronics that can softly adapt to and interface with tissues. However, hydrogels lack toughness, requisite electrical properties, and fabrication methodologies. Additionally, the water-swellable property of hydrogels weakens their mechanical properties. In this work, an intrinsically nonswellable multifunctional hydrogel exhibiting tissue-like moduli ranging from 10 to 100 kPa, toughness (400-873 J m-3 ), stretchability (≈1000% strain), and rapid self-healing ability (within 5 min), is developed. The incorporation of carboxyl- and hydroxyl-functionalized carbon nanotubes (fCNTs) ensures high conductivity of the hydrogel (≈40 S m-1 ), which can be maintained and recovered even after stretching or rupture. After a simple chemical modification, the hydrogel shows tissue-adhesive properties (≈50 kPa) against the target tissues. Moreover, the hydrogel can be 3D printed with a high resolution (≈100 µm) through heat treatment owing to its shear-thinning capacity, endowing it with fabrication versatility. The hydrogel is successfully applied to underwater electromyography (EMG) detection and ex vivo bladder expansion monitoring, demonstrating its potential for practical bioelectronics.

Abstract
Hemostatic powders provide an important treatment approach for time-sensitive hemorrhage control. Conventional hemostatic powders are challenged by the lack of tissue adhesiveness, insufficient hemostatic efficacy, limited infection control, and so forth. This study develops a hemostatic powder from tricomponent GTP coacervates consisting of gelatin, tannic acid (TA), and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA). The physical cross-linking by TA results in facile preparation, good storage stability, ease of application to wounds, and removal, which provide good potential for clinical translation. When rehydrated, the coacervate powders rapidly form a cohesive layer with interconnected microporous structure, competent flexibility, switchable wet adhesiveness, and antibacterial properties, which facilitate the hemostatic efficacy for treating irregular, noncompressible, or bacteria-infected wounds. Compared to commercial hemostats, GTP treatment results in significantly accelerated hemostasis in a liver puncture model (∼19 s, >30% reduction in the hemostatic time) and in a tail amputation model (∼38 s, >60% reduction in the hemostatic time). In the GTP coacervates, gelatin functioned as the biodegradable scaffold, while PVA introduced the flexible segments to enable shape-adaptability and interfacial interactions. Furthermore, TA contributed to the physical cross-linking, adhesiveness, and antibacterial performance of the coacervates. The study explores the tunability of GTP coacervate powders to enhance their hemostatic and wound healing performances.

Abstract
Engineered materials are ubiquitous throughout society and are critical to the development of modern technology, yet many current material systems are inexorably tied to widespread deterioration of ecological processes. Next-generation material systems can address goals of environmental sustainability by providing alternatives to fossil fuel-based materials and by reducing destructive extraction processes, energy costs, and accumulation of solid waste. However, development of sustainable materials faces several key challenges including investigation, processing, and architecting of new feedstocks that are often relatively mechanically weak, complex, and difficult to characterize or standardize. In this review paper, we outline a framework for examining sustainability in material systems and discuss how recent developments in modeling, machine learning, and other computational tools can aid the discovery of novel sustainable materials. We consider these through the lens of materiomics, an approach that considers material systems holistically by incorporating perspectives of all relevant scales, beginning with first-principles approaches and extending through the macroscale to consider sustainable material design from the bottom-up. We follow with an examination of how computational methods are currently applied to select examples of sustainable material development, with particular emphasis on bioinspired and biobased materials, and conclude with perspectives on opportunities and open challenges.

Abstract
Advanced elastomers are increasingly used in emerging areas, for example, flexible electronics and devices, and these real-world applications often require elastomers to be stretchable, tough and fire safe. However, to date there are few successes in achieving such a performance portfolio due to their different governing mechanisms. Herein, a stretchable, supertough, and self-extinguishing polyurethane elastomers by introducing dynamic π-π stacking motifs and phosphorus-containing moieties are reported. The resultant elastomer shows a large break strain of ≈2260% and a record-high toughness (ca. 460 MJ m-3 ), which arises from its dynamic microphase-separated microstructure resulting in increased entropic elasticity, and strain-hardening at large strains. The elastomer also exhibits a self-extinguishing ability thanks to the presence of both phosphorus-containing units and π-π stacking interactions. Its promising applications as a reliable yet recyclable substrate for strain sensors are demonstrated. The work will help to expedite next-generation sustainable advanced elastomers for flexible electronics and devices applications.

Abstract
Development of closed-loop chemically recyclable plastics (CCRPs) that can be widely used in daily life can be a fundamental solution to the global plastic waste crisis. Hence, it is of great significance to develop easy-to-recycle CCRPs that possess superior or comparable material properties to the commodity plastics. Here, a novel dual crosslinked CCRP, namely, supramolecular covalent adaptable networks (supra-CANs), is reported, which not only displays mechanical properties higher than the strong and tough commodity polycarbonate, but also exhibits excellent solvent resistance as thermosets. The supra-CANs are constructed by introducing reversible noncovalent crosslinks into the dynamic covalent polymer networks, resulting in highly stiff and strong thermosets that also exhibit thermoplastic-like ductile and tough behaviors as well as reprocessability and rehealability. In great contrast, the analogs that do not have noncovalent crosslinks (CANs) show elastomeric properties with significantly decreased mechanical strength. Importantly, the developed supra-CANs and CANs can be converted back into the initial monomers in high yields and purity at room temperature, even with additives, which enables the sustainable polymer-monomer-polymer circulation. This work provides new design principles for high-performance chemically recyclable polymers as sustainable substitutes for the conventional plastics.

Abstract
Supramolecular materials with room-temperature healability and recyclability are highly desired because they can extend materials lifetimes and reduce resources consumption. Most approaches toward healing and recycling rely on the dynamically reversible supramolecular interactions, such as hydrogen, ionic and coordinate bonds, which are hygroscopic and vulnerable to water. The general water-induced plasticization facilitates the healing and reprocessing process but cause a troubling problem of random self-adhesion. To address this issue, here it is reported that by modifying the hygroscopic surfaces with hydrophobic alkyl chains of dodecyltrimethoxysilane (DTMS), supramolecular plastic films based on commercial raw materials of sodium alginate (SA) and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) display extraordinary damage-specific healability. Owing to the hydrophobic surfaces, random self-adhesion is eliminated even under humid environment. When damage occurs, the fresh surfaces with ionic groups and hydroxyl groups expose exclusively at the damaged site. Thus, damage-specific healing can be readily facilitated by water-induced plasticization. Moreover, the films display excellent room-temperature recyclability. After multiple times of reprocessing and re-modifying with DTMS, the rejuvenated films exhibit fatigueless mechanical properties. It is anticipated that this approach to damage-specific healing and room-temperature recycling based on surface hydrophobization can be applied to design various of supramolecular plastic polysaccharides materials for building sustainable societies.

Abstract
Hemostatic materials have played a significant role in mitigating traumatic injury by controlling bleeding, however, the fabrication of the desirable material's structure to enhance the accumulation of blood cells and platelets for highly efficient hemostasis is still a great challenge. In this work, directed assembly of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) macromolecules covering the rigid Kevlar nanofiber (KNF) network during 3D printing process is utilized to fabricate hydrophilic, biocompatible, and mechanically stable KNF-PVA aerogel filaments for effective enriching blood components by fast water absorption. As such, KNF-PVA aerogel gauzes demonstrate remarkable water permeability (338 mL cm-2 s-1 bar-1 ), water absorption speed (as high as 9.64 g g-1 min-1 ) and capacity (more than ten times of self-weight), and ability to enrich micron-sized particles when contacting aqueous solution. All these properties favor efficient hemostasis and the resulting KNF-PVA aerogel gauzes significantly outperform the commercial product Quikclot Gauze (Z-Medica) during in vivo experiments with the rat liver laceration model, reducing the hemostasis time by half (60 ± 4 s) and the blood loss by two thirds (0.07 ± 0.01 g). These results demonstrate a robust strategy to design various aerogel gauzes for hemostasis applications.

Abstract
Hydrogels composed of polyphenols and various macromolecules have been widely reported to have the advantage of facile preparation, mainly through the formation of hydrogen bonds. However, the traditional preparation method involves the direct mixing of polyphenols and macromolecules, which generally occurs too quickly and uncontrollably, and results in poor homogeneity, injectability, and shape designability. Here, inspired by the intermediate precursor during biomineralization, to facilitate transformation in a controllable way, we propose a novel and universal internal gelation method that creates an intermediate precursor by controlling the pH value to manipulate the elimination and generation of hydrogen bonds between a polyphenol and macromolecules. The precursor strategy greatly improves the homogeneity, injectability, and shape designability of the hydrogel while also achieving a controllable gelation process, and the gelation time can be accurately adjusted. The hydrogels prepared with this method exhibited superior capability to seal leaks, provided complete wound coverage, and showed the potential to be a shape-designable wearable strain sensor. Our study opens up a new way to construct and apply polyphenol-macromolecule hydrogels in a more controllable manner.

Abstract
Molecular self-assembled materials have attracted considerable interest in recent years. As part of the efforts to overcome the shortcoming that the solution-based methods were hardly applicable in preparing bulk macroscopic molecular self-assemblies, Yan [ CCS Chem. 2020, 2, 98-106] developed a strategy of solid-phase molecular self-assembly (SPMSA) that allows scaling up the generation of massive supramolecular films. It is highly desired to understand the physical insight into the SPMSA at a molecular level. Here, in combination with the experimental study, we report molecular dynamics (MD) simulations on the SPMSA of the surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) using a coarse-grained method with the Martini force field model. The MD simulations clearly manifest that a small amount of water is required to endow the SDS molecules with sufficient mobility to self-assemble, and the smaller size of the preassembled SDS particles favors their further fusion into mesophases by reducing the total surface Gibbs free energy, while the smaller interparticle distance decreases the time for the particle fusion. The simulation results agree well with the conditions required in the experiment, confirming that SMPSA is a free-energy-favored process leading to bulk self-assembled materials.

Abstract
Noncovalently cross-linked polymeric materials generally exhibit lower mechanical robustness than traditional polymeric materials. Therefore, it is important to improve the mechanical properties of noncovalently cross-linked polymeric materials using an efficient and generalized approach. In this Perspective, we systematically summarized the recent development of noncovalently cross-linked polymeric materials reinforced by in situ-formed nanofillers. The synergy of high-density noncovalent interactions and in situ-formed rigid nanofillers provided an effective means for the fabrication of noncovalently cross-linked plastics with high mechanical strength. The design of in situ-formed tough nanofillers, which could deform and dissociate, endowed the noncovalently cross-linked hydrogels and elastomers with high toughness, excellent stretchability, elasticity, damage resistance, and damage tolerance. Benefiting from the well-designed in situ-formed nanofillers, these noncovalently cross-linked polymeric materials with enhanced mechanical strength still exhibited satisfactory healing, recycling, and reprocessing properties. Outlooks were provided to envision the remaining challenges to the further development and practical application of noncovalently cross-linked polymeric materials reinforced with in situ-formed nanofillers.

Abstract
To impart self-healing polymers largely adjustable dynamicity and mechanical performance, here we develop libraries of catalyst-free reversible polythioureas directly from commodity 1,4-phenylene diisothiocyanate and amines via facile click chemistry based modular assembly. By using the amine modules with various steric hindrances and flexibilities, the reversible thiourea units acquire triggering temperatures from room temperature to 120 °C. Accordingly, the derived self-healable, recyclable and controlled degradable dynamically crosslinked polythioureas can take effect within wide temperature range. Moreover, mechanical properties of the materials can be tuned covering plastics, elastomers and fibers using (i) different assemble modules or (ii) solid-state stretching. Particularly, unidirectional stretching leads to the record-high tensile strength of 266 MPa, while bidirectional stretching provides the materials with biaxial strengths up to over 120 MPa. The molecular mechanism and technological innovations discussed in this work may benefit promotion and application of self-healing polymers towards greatly diverse demands and scenarios. Intrinsic self-healing polymers attract increasing attention but often suffer from a narrow self-healing temperature range and unsatisfactory mechanical performance. Here, the authors use click chemistry to develop a library of catalyst-free reversible polythioureas and demonstrate that the self-healing temperature and mechanical properties can be adjusted by controlling the flexibility and the steric environment.

Abstract
Making a hydrogel-based first-aid bandage with green resources, desirable biocompatibility, universal adhesive properties, low cost and simple production is a long-standing research aspiration. Considering this, three naturally existing organic acids, namely tannic acid, thioctic acid and phytic acid, were used to construct a novel adhesive gel (TATAPA hydrogel) for epidermal tissue bandage applications. This hydrogel could be synthesized under mild conditions with no need for a freeze-thawing shaping procedure, and was transparent, moldable and stretchable with good stability under continuous water immersion. In lap-shear tests, the TATAPA hydrogel could adhere to various hydrophilic and hydrophobic surfaces. Moreover, in the case of skin tissue adhesion, the hydrogel could be easily peeled off from the skin, meeting wearability requirements. Rheological tests showed that the hydrogel possessed thermal sensitive properties derived from multi-supramolecular interactions. The methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)-infected burn wound test demonstrated that the hydrogel had desirable antibacterial activity and was beneficial for wound healing. A femoral artery bleeding assay was also used to reveal that the TATAPA hydrogel could be directly pasted onto the bleeding site for hemostasis. Overall, this hydrogel demonstrates potential as a surgical bioadhesive for a broad range of medical applications.

Abstract
The construction of solvent-free ionic conductive elastomers with high mechanical stretchability and large dynamic reversibility of chain segments is highly desired yet challenging. Here, a hierarchical response network strategy is presented for preparing highly stretchable yet mechanical robust ionic conductive elastomer composites (ICECs), among which poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) microcrystalline serves as a physical cross-linking site providing high mechanical strength and elasticity, while dense hydrogen bonds endow superior mechanical toughness and dynamic reversibility. Due to the formation of the hierarchical response network, the resultant ICECs exhibit intrinsically high stretchability (>1500%), large tensile strength (∼2.1 MPa), and high fracture toughness (∼28 MJ m-3). Intriguingly, due to the high reversibility of hydrogen-bonded networks, the ICECs after being crushed are capable of healing and recycling by simple hot-pressing for multiple cycles. Moreover, the ICECs are dissolvable under an alkaline condition and easily regenerated in an acid solution for manifold cycles. Importantly, the healed, recycled, and regenerated ICECs are capable of maintaining their initial mechanical elasticity and ionic conducting performance. Due to the integration of high stretchability, fatigue resistance, and ionic conductivity, the ICECs can readily work as a stretchable ionic conductor for skin-inspired ionic sensors for real-time and accurately sensing complex human motions. This study thus provides a promising strategy for the development of healable and renewable ionic sensing materials with high stretchability and mechanical robustness, demonstrating great potential in soft ionotronics.

Abstract
Chitin, an abundant, biodegradable, and biocompatible polysaccharide, is one of the most ideal eco-friendly alternatives to petroleum-based plastics. However, the applications of chitin-based materials are hindered by their low processability and brittleness induced by strong hydrogen bonds. Herein, a tensile-induced orientation and hydrogen bond reconstruction strategy was developed to fabricate a chitin nanowhiskers/poly(vinyl alcohol) composite film with high strength and toughness. After stretching and hydrogen bond reconstruction, the tensile strength and elongation at break of the composite film increased from 38.6 to 115.2 MPa and 9.37% to 40.7%, respectively. Furthermore, strengthening and toughening mechanisms were also studied, which were attributed to the effects of the intra-layer orientation and interlayer sliding, respectively.

Abstract
Flexible perovskite solar cells draw great attention due to their likeable traits like low cost, portability, light-weight, et al. However, mechanical stability is still the weak point in their practical application. Herein, we prepared efficient FPSC with remarkable mechanical stability by dynamic thermal self-healing effect, which can be realized by the usage of supramolecular adhesive. The colloidal adhesive was obtained by random copolymerization of acrylamide and n-butyl acrylate, which is amphiphilic, has a proper glass transition temperature and high density of hydrogen bond donors and receptors, providing the possibility of thermal dynamic repair of stress damage in FPSCs. The adhesive also greatly improves the leveling property of the precursor solution on the hydrophobic poly[bis(4-phenyl)(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)]amine (PTAA) surface. PSCs containing this adhesive achieves more than 20% power conversion efficiency (PCE) on flexible substrates and 21.99% PCE on rigid substrates (certified PCE of 21.27%), with improved electron mobility and reduced defect concentration.

Abstract
Resveratrol/tannic acid-poly(vinyl alcohol) (RETA-PVA) blends have been prepared by compression molding using poly(vinyl alcohol), tannic acid and resveratrol as raw materials. The effects of different resveratrol/tannic acid ratios on the flammability of RETA-PVA blends have been studied. The flammability of the RETA-PVA blends was assessed using cone calorimetry, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Results indicate that RETA-PVA molecules occur through hydrogen bonding and RETA-PVA blends are amorphous. The glass transition temperature for RETA-PVA-2 is the highest among all blends and the peak of heat release rate and smoke production rate for RETA-PVA is 38.4% and 43.9% lower than that for PVA, respectively. With the addition of resveratrol, the residual amount of RETA-PVA after complete combustion is greatly increased, to 30 times that for PVA, indicating that RETA-PVA blends display excellent flame retardant properties. The rigid molecular structure of biobased resveratrol/tannic acid (RETA) complex increases the residual amount of RETA-poly(vinyl alcohol) after complete combustion.![]()

Abstract
Lightweight polymeric materials are highly attractive platforms for many potential industrial applications in aerospace, soft robots, and biological engineering fields. For these real-world applications, it is vital for them to exhibit a desirable combination of great toughness, large ductility, and high strength together with desired healability and biocompatibility. However, existing material design strategies usually fail to achieve such a performance portfolio owing to their different and even mutually exclusive governing mechanisms. To overcome these hurdles, herein, for the first time a dynamic hydrogen-bonded nanoconfinement concept is proposed, and the design of highly stretchable and supratough biocompatible poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) with well-dispersed dynamic nanoconfinement phases induced by hydrogen-bond (H-bond) crosslinking is demonstrated. Because of H-bond crosslinking and dynamic nanoconfinement, the as-prepared PVA nanocomposite film exhibits a world-record toughness of 425 ± 31 MJ m-3 in combination with a tensile strength of 98 MPa and a large break strain of 550%, representing the best of its kind and even outperforming most natural and artificial materials. In addition, the final polymer exhibits a good self-healing ability and biocompatibility. This work affords new opportunities for creating mechanically robust, healable, and biocompatible polymeric materials, which hold great promise for applications, such as soft robots and artificial ligaments.

Abstract
The construction of silicone elastomers crosslinked by a natural crosslinker under a catalyst-free method is highly desirable. Herein we present catalyst-free silicone elastomers (SEs) by simply introducing tannic acid (TA) as a natural crosslinker when using poly (aminopropylmethylsiloxane-co-dimethylsiloxane) (PAPMS) as the base polymer. The crosslinked bonding of these SEs can be easily changed from hydrogen bonding to covalent bonding by altering the curing reaction from room temperature to heating condition. The formability and mechanical properties of the SEs can be tuned by altering various factors, including processing technique, the amount of TA and aminopropyl-terminated polydimethylsiloxane, the molecular weight and -NH2 content of PAPMS, and the amount of reinforcing filler. The hydrogen bonding was proved by the reversible crosslinking of the elastomers, which can be gradually dissolved in tetrahydrofuran and re-formed after removing the solvent. The covalent bonding was proved by a model reaction of catechol and n-decylamine and occurred through a combination of hydroxylamine reaction and Michael addition reaction. These elastomers exhibit good thermal stability and excellent hydrophobic property and can bond iron sheets to hold the weight of 500 g, indicating their promising as adhesives. These results reveal that TA as a natural product is a suitable “green” crosslinker for the construction of catalyst-free silicone elastomers by a simple crosslinking strategy. Under this strategy, TA and more natural polyphenols could be certainly utilized as crosslinkers to fabricate more organic elastomers by selecting amine-containing polymers and further explore their extensive applications in adhesives, sealants, insulators, sensors, and so forth.

Abstract
The development of waterproof ionogels with high stretchability and fast self-healing performance is essential for stretchable ionic conductors in sophisticated skin-inspired wearable sensors but can be rarely met in one material. Herein, a semicrystalline fluorinated copolymer ionogel (SFCI) with extremely high stretchability, underwater stability, and fast self-healability was fabricated, among which hydrophobic ionic liquids ([BMIM][TFSI]) were selectively enriched in fluoroacrylate segment domains of the fluorinated copolymer matrix through unique ion-dipole interactions. Benefiting from the reversible ion-dipole interactions between the [BMIM][TFSI] and fluoroacrylate segment domains as well as the physical cross-linking effects of semicrystalline oligoethylene glycol domains, the SFCI exhibited ultrastretchability (>6000%), fast room-temperature self-healability (>96% healing efficiency after cutting and self-healing for 30 min), and outstanding elasticity. In addition, the representative SFCI also exhibited high-temperature tolerance up to 300 °C, antifreezing performance as low as -35 °C, and high transparency (>93% visible-light transmittance). As a result, the as-obtained SFCI can readily be used as a highly stretchable ionic conductor in skin-inspired wearable sensors with waterproof performance for real-time detecting physiological human activities. These attractive features illustrate that the developed ultrastretchable and rapidly self-healable ionogels with unique waterproofness are promising candidates especially for sophisticated wearable strain sensing applications in complex and extreme environments.

Abstract
Poor room-temperature ionic conductivities and narrow electrochemical stable windows severely hinder the application of conventional poly(ethylene oxide)-based (PEO-based) solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) for high-energy-density lithium metal batteries (LMBs). Herein, we designed and synthesized a PEO-based self-healing solid polymer electrolyte (SHSPE) via dynamically cross-linked imine bonds for safe, flexible solid LMBs. The constructed dynamic networks endow this SPE with fascinating intrinsic self-healing ability and excellent mechanical properties (extensibility > 500% and stress >130 kPa). More importantly, this SHSPE exhibits ultrahigh ionic conductivity (7.48 × 10-4 S cm-1 at 25 °C) and wide ESW (5.0 V vs Li/Li+). As a result, Li||Li symmetrical cells with the SHSPE showed reliable stability in a >1200 h cycling test under room temperature. The assembled Li|SHSPE|LiFePO4 cell maintained a discharge capacity of 126.4 mAh g-1 after 300 cycles (0.1C, 27 °C). This work highlights a promising strategy for next-generation room-temperature solid-state LMBs.
