Abstract
Polyolefins (POs), which constitute over 50% of all plastics, predominantly end up in landfills. To date, there have been no reports on mixtures of PO vitrimers. This study reports the successful synthesis of PO vitrimers from a mixture of 27.7% high-density polyethylene (HDPE), 36.3% linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE)/low-density polyethylene (LDPE), and 36.0% polypropylene (PP), which is similar to that of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW). This is achieved by using silyl ether-based chemistry, both with and without nitroxides. Additionally, these PO vitrimers are compared with individual vitrimers made of HDPE, LDPE, LLDPE, and PP, as well as vitrimers made from PE blends (comprising HDPE, LLDPE, and LDPE). All vitrimers were prepared via melt extrusion. Their cross-linking density, storage modulus, tensile properties, and reprocessability were assessed. For PO vitrimers, a storage modulus of 0.61 MPa was achieved, indicating a cross-linked network while also maintaining complete melt reprocessability. This study not only provides fundamental insights but also presents a sustainable pathway for recycling PEs and POs into useful materials, hence helping to minimize waste.

Abstract
The most common type of insulation of extruded high-voltage power cables is composed of low-density polyethylene (LDPE), which must be crosslinked to adjust its thermomechanical properties. A major drawback is the need for hazardous curing agents and the release of harmful curing byproducts during cable production, while the thermoset nature complicates reprocessing of the insulation material. This perspective explores recent progress in the development of alternative concepts that allow to avoid byproducts through either click chemistry type curing of polyethylene-based copolymers or the use of polyolefin blends or copolymers, which entirely removes the need for crosslinking. Moreover, polypropylene-based thermoplastic formulations enable the design of insulation materials that can withstand higher cable operating temperatures and facilitate reprocessing by remelting once the cable reaches the end of its lifetime. Finally, polyethylene-based covalent and non-covalent adaptable networks are explored, which may allow to combine the advantages of thermoset and thermoplastic insulation materials in terms of thermomechanical properties and reprocessability.

ADVANCED MATERIALS (DEERFIELD BEACH, FLA.) 2024; 36:e2406574.

Abstract
Interconnecting macromolecules via multiple hydrogen bonds (H-bonds) can simultaneously strengthen and toughen polymers, but material synthesis becomes extremely difficult with increasing number of H-bonding donors and acceptors; therefore, most reports are limited to triple and quadruple H-bonds. Herein, this bottleneck is overcome by adopting a quartet-wise approach of constructing H-bonds instead of the traditional pairwise method. Thus, large multiple hydrogen bonds can be easily established, and the supramolecular interactions are further reinforced. Especially, when such multiple H-bond motifs are embedded in polymers, four macromolecular chains-rather than two as usual-are tied, distributing the applied stress over a larger volume and more significantly improving the overall mechanical properties. Proof-of-concept studies indicate that the proposed intermolecular multiple H-bonds (up to duodecuple) are readily introduced in polyurethane. A record-high tensile strength (105.2 MPa) is achieved alongside outstanding toughness (352.1 MJ m-3), fracture energy (480.7 kJ m-2), and fatigue threshold (2978.4 J m-2). Meantime, the polyurethane has acquired excellent self-healability and recyclability. This strategy is also applicable to nonpolar polymers, such as polydimethylsiloxane, whose strength (15.3 MPa) and toughness (50.3 MJ m-3) are among the highest reported to date for silicones. This new technique has good expandability and can be used to develop even more and stronger polymers.

Abstract
Elastomers are widely used in traditional industries and new intelligent fields. However, they are inevitably damaged by electricity, heat, force, etc. during the working process. With the continuous improvement of reliability and environmental protection requirements in human production and living, it is vital to develop elastomer materials with good mechanical properties that are not easily damaged and can self-heal after being damaged. Nevertheless, there are often contradictions between mechanical properties and self-healing as well as toughness, strength, and ductility. Herein, a strong and dynamic decuple hydrogen bonding based on carbon hydrazide (CHZ) is reported, accompanied with soft polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) chains to prepare self-healing (efficiency 98.7%), recyclable, and robust elastomers (CHZ-PDMS). The strategy of decuple hydrogen bonding will significantly impact the study of the mechanical properties of elastomers. High stretchability (1731%) and a high toughness of 23.31 MJ m-3 are achieved due to the phase-separated structure and energy dissipation. The recyclability of CHZ-PDMS further supports the concept of environmental protection. The application of CHZ-PDMS as a flexible strain sensor exhibited high sensitivity.

Abstract
Additive manufacturing capable of controlling and dynamically modulating structures down to the nanoscopic scale remains challenging. By marrying additive manufacturing with self-assembly, we develop a UV (ultra-violet)-assisted direct ink write approach for on-the-fly modulation of structural color by programming the assembly kinetics through photo-cross-linking. We design a photo-cross-linkable bottlebrush block copolymer solution as a printing ink that exhibits vibrant structural color (i.e., photonic properties) due to the nanoscopic lamellar structures formed post extrusion. By dynamically modulating UV-light irradiance during printing, we can program the color of the printed material to access a broad spectrum of visible light with a single ink while also creating color gradients not previously possible. We unveil the mechanism of this approach using a combination of coarse-grained simulations, rheological measurements, and structural characterizations. Central to the assembly mechanism is the matching of the cross-linking timescale with the assembly timescale, which leads to kinetic trapping of the assembly process that evolves structural color from blue to red driven by solvent evaporation. This strategy of integrating cross-linking chemistry and out-of-equilibrium processing opens an avenue for spatiotemporal control of self-assembled nanostructures during additive manufacturing.

Abstract
The current work focuses on the investigation of two functionalized naphthyridine derivatives, namely ODIN-EtPh and ODIN-But, to gain insights into the hydrogen bond-assisted H-aggregate formation and its impact on the optical properties of ODIN molecules. By employing a combination of X-ray and electron crystallography, absorption and emission spectroscopy, time resolved fluorescence and ultrafast pump-probe spectroscopy (visible and infrared) we unravel the correlation between the structure and light-matter response, with a particular emphasis on the influence of the polarity of the surrounding environment. Our experimental results and simulations confirm that in polar and good hydrogen-bond acceptor solvents (DMSO), the formation of dimers for ODIN derivatives is strongly inhibited. The presence of a phenyl group linked to the ureidic unit favors the folding of ODIN derivatives (forming an intramolecular hydrogen bond) leading to the stabilization of a charge-transfer excited state which almost completely quenches its fluorescence emission. In solvents with a poor aptitude for forming hydrogen bonds, the formation of dimers is favored and gives rise to H aggregates, with a consequent considerable reduction in the fluorescence emission. The urea-bound phenyl group furtherly stabilizes the dimers in chloroform.

Abstract
Recently, polymers capable of repeatedly self-healing physical damage and restoring mechanical properties have attracted extensive attention. Among the various supramolecular chemistry, hydrogen-bonding (H-bonding) featuring reversibility, directionality and high per-volume concentration has become one of the most attractive directions for the development of self-healing polymers (SHPs). Herein, we review the recent advances in the design of high-performance SHPs based on different H-bonding types, for example, H-bonding motifs and excessive H-bonding. In particular, the effects of the structural design of SHPs on their mechanical performance and healing efficiency are discussed in detail. Moreover, we also summarize how to employ H-bonding-based SHPs for the preparation of self-healable electronic devices, focusing on promising topics, including energy harvesting devices, energy storage devices, and flexible sensing devices. Finally, the current challenges and possible strategies for the development of H-bonding-based SHPs and their smart electronic applications are highlighted.

Abstract
In this study, we present two-photon microscopy (2PM) as an original technique to investigate the compatibilization between PE-HEMA and EVOH at the sub-micrometer level, both on the surface and in the bulk. 2PM is a nonlinear fluorescence imaging technique commonly exploited for thick biological tissue analysis. Here, we use 2PM to visualize polymer blending through 3D images of the obtained films. Compatibilization was performed in solution, upon functionalization of PE-HEMA with 1.4% molar of ODIN, a fluorescent molecule able to form multiple hydrogen bonds with EVOH and to act as a fluorescent probe. Different blends were synthesized, and the obtained films were analyzed by 2PM. For all compositions, it was demonstrated that ODIN is evenly distributed both on the surface and in the bulk. 2PM analysis of the thermally reprocessed specimen revealed that repeated reprocessing allows the reformation of ODIN dimers as the most stable H-bonding array in the solid state, partially reversing the compatibilization.

Abstract
Thermosets composed of cross-linked polymers demonstrate enhanced thermal, solvent, chemical, and dimensional stability as compared to their non-cross-linked counterparts. However, these often-desirable material properties typically come at the expense of reprocessability, recyclability, and healability. One solution to this challenge comes from the construction of polymers that are reversibly cross-linked. We relied on lessons from Nature to present supramolecular polymer networks comprised of cooperative Janus-faced hydrogen bonded cross-links. A triazine-based guanine-cytosine base (GCB) with two complementary faces capable of self-assembly through three hydrogen bonding sites was incorporated into poly(butyl acrylate) to create a reprocessable and recyclable network. Rheological experiments and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) were employed to investigate the flow behavior of copolymers with randomly distributed GCB units of varying incorporation. Our studies revealed that the cooperativity of multiple hydrogen bonding faces yields excellent network integrity evidenced by a rubbery plateau that spanned the widest temperature range yet reported for any supramolecular network. To verify that each Janus-faced motif engages in multiple cross-links, we studied the effects of local concentration of the incorporated GCB units within the polymer chain. Mechanical strength improved by colocalizing the GCB within a block copolymer morphology. This enhanced performance revealed that the number of effective cross-links in the network increased with the local concentration of hydrogen bonding units. Overall, this study demonstrates that cooperative noncovalent interactions introduced through Janus-faced hydrogen bonding moieties confers excellent network stability and predictable viscoelastic flow behavior in supramolecular networks.

Abstract
![]()
The
origin of unique rheological response in supramolecular brush
polymers is investigated using different polymer chemistries (poly(methyl
acrylate) (PmA) and poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)), topologies (linear
or star), and molecular weights. A recently developed hydrogen-bonding
moiety (1-(6-isocyanatohexyl)-3-(7-oxo-7,8-dihydro-1,8-naphthyridin-2-yl)-urea)
(ODIN) was coupled to PmAs and PEGs to form supramolecular brush polymers,
the backbone of which is formed by the associated moieties. At low
molecular weights of monofunctionalized polymers (both PmA and PEG),
the formed brushes are mostly composed of a thick backbone (with very
short arms) and are surrounded by other similar brush polymers, which
prevent them from diffusing and relaxing. Therefore, the monofunctionalized
PmA with a low Mn does not show terminal
flow even at the highest experimentally studied temperature (or at
longest time scales). By increasing the length of the chains, supramolecular
brushes with longer arms are obtained. Due to their lower density
of thick backbones, these last ones have more space to move and their
relaxation is therefore enhanced. In this work, we show that despite
similarities between covalent and transient brush polymers, the elastic
response in the latter does not originate from the brush entanglements
with a large Me (entanglement molecular
weight), but it rather stems from the impenetrable rigid backbone
and caging effect similar to the one described for hyperstars.

Abstract
It has always been critical to develop high-performance polymeric materials with exceptional mechanical strength and toughness, thermal stability, and even healable properties for meeting performance requirements in industry. Conventional chemical cross-linking leads to enhanced mechanical strength and thermostability at the expense of extensibility due to mutually exclusive mechanisms. Such major challenges have recently been addressed by using noncovalent cross-linking of reversible multiple hydrogen-bonds (H-bonds) that widely exist in biological materials, such as silk and muscle. Recent decades have witnessed the development of many tailor-made high-performance H-bond cross-linked polymeric materials. Here, recent advances in H-bond cross-linking strategies are reviewed for creating high-performance polymeric materials. H-bond cross-linking of polymers can be realized via i) self-association of interchain multiple H-bonding interactions or specific H-bond cross-linking motifs, such as 2-ureido-4-pyrimidone units with self-complementary quadruple H-bonds and ii) addition of external cross-linkers, including small molecules, nanoparticles, and polymer aggregates. The resultant cross-linked polymers normally exhibit tunable high strength, large extensibility, improved thermostability, and healable capability. Such performance portfolios enable these advanced polymers to find many significant cutting-edge applications. Major challenges facing existing H-bond cross-linking strategies are discussed, and some promising approaches for designing H-bond cross-linked polymeric materials in the future are also proposed.

Abstract
A series of poly(tetrahydrofuran)s with molecular weights above entanglement molecular weight M e were synthesized, and one of their end-groups was functionalized with a supramolecular entity so that the corresponding polymers form a brushlike structure suitable for comparison with conventional irreversible bottlebrush polymers. To compare their relaxation mechanisms, linear rheology was employed and showed that a hierarchical relaxation, which is usually observed in bottlebrush polymers, occurs in these materials, too. The polymer chain segments close to the supramolecular backbone are highly immobilized due to strong association in the center of polymer brush and cannot relax via reptation mechanism, which is mainly responsible for linear entangled polymer relaxations. Therefore, disentanglement can take much longer through contour length fluctuations and arm retraction processes similar to covalent bottlebrush polymers and combs. The relaxed ends of polymers then act as solvent to let the remaining segments of the polymeric brush undergo Rouse-like motions (constraint release Rouse). At longer times, additional plateau appears, which can be attributed to the relaxation of the entire supramolecular bottlebrush polymer via hopping or reptative motions. With an increase of temperature, viscoelastic solid behavior turns into viscoelastic liquid due to reversible depolymerization of the supramolecular backbone of the bottlebrush polymer. The elastic modulus (G' in the order of kPa) was much less than the values found for the entanglement plateau modulus of linear poly(tetrahydrofuran) (in order of MPa). This low modulus value, which exists up to very low frequencies (high temperatures), makes them a good candidate for supersoft elastomers.
