Abstract
Polymeric materials that undergo photoinduced degradation have wide application in fields such as controlled release. Most methods for photoinduced degradation rely on the UV or near-UV region of the electromagnetic spectrum; however, use of the deeply penetrating and benign wavelengths of visible light offers a multitude of advantages. Here we report a lactone monomer for ring-opening copolymerizations to introduce a sacrificial linker into a polymer backbone which can be cleaved by reactive oxygen species which are produced by a photocatalyst under visible light irradiation. We find that copolymers of this material readily degrade under visible light. We followed polymer degradation using a continuous flow size exclusion chromatography system, the components of which are described herein.

Abstract
Homopolymerization of ortho-nitrobenzyl (oNB)-protected l-cysteine and l-glutamic acid was systematically studied in different solvents and at different monomer to initiator ratios, revealing the best reaction control in dimethylformamide (DMF) across a range of degrees of polymerization. In the subsequent ultraviolet (UV)-cleavage studies, it was found that quantitative deprotection upon UV exposure at 365 nm was not achievable for either of the homopolypeptides as confirmed by 1H NMR and UV/visible (UV/vis) analyses. While the poly(oNB-l-cysteine) deprotected more readily with no effect of the polypeptide molecular weight, lower molecular weight poly(oNB-l-glutamate) reached maximum deprotection faster than high molecular weight samples. This was further confirmed by the pH changes of the solution. When incorporated into the core of miniemulsion-derived nanoparticles, both oNB-protected copolypeptides were successfully deprotected as evident from a color change and a pH change in the case of poly(oNB-l-glutamate). However, the removal of the deprotection byproduct nitrosobenzaldehyde proved unsuccessful, which indicates a diffusion barrier caused by the nanoparticle's surfactant. The study provides insights and guidelines for the UV deprotection of polypeptides and demonstrates the ability to selectively UV-deprotect polypeptides in the confined space of a nanoparticle dispersion.

Influence of Nanoaggregation Routes on the Structure and Thermal Behavior of Multiple-Stimuli-Responsive Micelles from Block Copolymers of Oligo(ethylene glycol) Methacrylate and the Weak Acid [2-(Hydroxyimino)aldehyde]butyl Methacrylate. LANGMUIR : THE ACS JOURNAL OF SURFACES AND COLLOIDS 2022; 38:14371-14386.

Abstract
In this work, we compare nanoaggregation driven by pH-induced micellization (PIM) and by the standard solvent displacement (SD) method on a series of pH-, light-, and thermosensitive amphiphilic block copolymers. Specifically, we investigate poly(HIABMA)-b-poly(OEGMA) and poly(HIABMA)-b-poly(DEGMA-r-OEGMA), where HIABMA = [(hydroxyimino)aldehyde]butyl methacrylate, OEGMA = oligo(ethylene glycol)methyl ether methacrylate, and DEGMA = di(ethylene glycol)methyl ether methacrylate. The weakly acidic HIA group (pKa ≈ 8) imparts stability to micelles at neutral pH, unlike most of the pH-responsive copolymers investigated in the literature. With SD, only some of our copolymers yield polymeric micelles (34-59 nm), and their thermoresponsivity is either poor or altogether absent. In contrast, PIM affords thermoresponsive, smaller micelles (down to 24 nm), regardless of the polymer composition. In some cases, cloud points are remarkably well defined and exhibit limited hysteresis. By combining turbidimetric, dyamic light scattering, and small-angle X-ray scattering measurements, we show that SD yields loose micelles with POEGMA segments partly involved in the formation of the hydrophobic core, whereas PIM yields more compact core-shell micelles with a well-defined PHIABMA core. We conclude that pH-based nanoaggregation provides advantages over block-selective solvation to obtain compact micelles exhibiting well-defined responses to external stimuli.

Abstract
The simultaneous and efficient removal of oleophilic and hydrophilic stains from polyurethane (PU) is realized by combining the easy-cleaning from the hydrophilic thermoresponsive hydrogel coating containing acrylamide (AAm), gum arabic (GA), and (ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate (OEGMA300) P(GA/AAm/OEGMA300) and the self-cleaning from the embedded nonmetallic photocatalyst g-C3N4. Due to the existence of strong hydrogen bonds between the hydroxyl groups in the hybrid hydrogel coating and the hydroxyl/carboxyl groups in the plasma-treated PU, the hybrid hydrogel coating is very stable on PU. Simultaneously, the acrylamide network in the hybrid hydrogel coating enhances its mechanical strength. Because the transition temperature of OEGMA300 is well above the room temperature, the cross-linked coating remains hydrophilic in ambient conditions. Thus, oleophilic stains, such as oil and grease, can be easily removed from the coating surface. In addition, the embedded photocatalyst g-C3N4 in the hybrid hydrogel coating introduces the extra capability of decomposing organic compounds under sunshine, which favors the removal of hydrophilic stains such as dyes and wines. After sunlight illumination and simply rinsing with water, both hydrophilic and oleophilic stains can be easily removed. Moreover, this joint cleaning performance can work for a long time. Even after four consecutive cycles, both the easy-cleaning to oleophilic stains by the hydrophilic hydrogel surface and self-cleaning to the hydrophilic stains by the embedded g-C3N4 remain unchanged.

Abstract
Altering the glucose supply and the metabolic pathways would be an intriguing strategy in starvation therapy toward cancers. Nevertheless, starvation therapy alone could be inadequate to eliminate tumor cells completely. Herein, a multifunctional bioreactor was fabricated for synergistic starvation-chemotherapy through embedding glucose oxidase (GOx) and doxorubicin (DOX) in the tumor targeting ligands (RGD) modified red blood cell membrane camouflaged metal-organic framework (MOF) nanoparticle (denoted as RGD-mGZD). Owing to the remarkable biointerfacing property, the designed RGD-mGZD could not only possess enhanced blood retention time inherited from red blood cells, but also preferentially target the tumor site after the modification with RGD peptide. Once the bioreactor reached the desired region, GOx promptly consumed the intratumoral glucose and oxygen to starve cancer cells for robust starvation therapy. More importantly, the aggravated acidic microenvironment at the tumor region was found to induce the decomposition of the MOF structure, thus triggering the release of DOX for reinforced chemotherapy. This bioreactor would further prompt the development of synergistic patterns toward cancer treatment in a spatiotemporally controlled manner.

Abstract
In the two decades since the introduction of the "click chemistry" concept, the toolbox of "click reactions" has continually expanded, enabling chemists, materials scientists, and biologists to rapidly and selectively build complexity for their applications of interest. Similarly, selective and efficient covalent bond breaking reactions have provided and will continue to provide transformative advances. Here, we review key examples and applications of efficient, selective covalent bond cleavage reactions, which we refer to herein as "clip reactions." The strategic application of clip reactions offers opportunities to tailor the compositions and structures of complex (bio)(macro)molecular systems with exquisite control. Working in concert, click chemistry and clip chemistry offer scientists and engineers powerful methods to address next-generation challenges across the chemical sciences.

Abstract
Enhanced synergistic stain removal is realized by tailoring the comonomer fractions of a light- and thermo-dual responsive copolymer, which is immobilized on cotton fabrics by a cross-linker. The copolymer poly(acrylamide azobenzene-co-ethylene glycol methacrylate-co-triethylene glycol methyl ether methacrylate), denoted P(AAAB1-co-EGMA2-co-MEO3MA17), is prepared by the ATRP polymerization method. The present molar ratio for these monomers is 1:2:17. Because of the existence of the light-responsive AAAB unit, the transition temperature of its aqueous solution under UV radiation is shifted to 39 °C, which is 2 °C higher than that in ambient conditions. This increase is caused by the trans-cis isomerization from the azobenzene groups, indicating an increased hydrophilicity of P(AAAB1-co-EGMA2-co-MEO3MA17) under UV radiation. After being immobilized onto cotton fabrics by a cross-linker, they are also dual-responsive. The equilibrium swelling ratio (ESR) of the cotton fabrics is further increased after UV radiation. Compared to our former investigation, the reduction of the AAAB molar fraction from 0.1 to 0.05 causes an increase of the ESR value by 10%. Moreover, the stain removal efficiency of the cotton fabrics immobilized with P(AAAB1-co-EGMA2-co-MEO3MA17) by cross-linker is also significantly improved under UV radiation. The hydrophilicity of the copolymer mainly from the MEO3MA units is crucial to the cleaning capability. Additionally lowering the attachment between stain and the copolymer coating on the cotton fabrics by trans-cis isomerization in those AAAB units also favors the cleaning. Hence, the stain removal is strongly improved by optimizing the fraction of light- versus thermo-responsive components in the copolymer, which can profoundly reduce the consumption of chemical detergents and energy during laundry.

Abstract
Since the late 1980s, additive manufacturing (AM), commonly known as three-dimensional (3D) printing, has been gradually popularized. However, the microstructures fabricated using 3D printing is static. To overcome this challenge, four-dimensional (4D) printing which defined as fabricating a complex spontaneous structure that changes with time respond in an intended manner to external stimuli. 4D printing originates in 3D printing, but beyond 3D printing. Although 4D printing is mainly based on 3D printing and become an branch of additive manufacturing, the fabricated objects are no longer static and can be transformed into complex structures by changing the size, shape, property and functionality under external stimuli, which makes 3D printing alive. Herein, recent major progresses in 4D printing are reviewed, including AM technologies for 4D printing, stimulation method, materials and applications. In addition, the current challenges and future prospects of 4D printing were highlighted.

Abstract
Nitroxide-based organic-radical contrast agents (ORCAs) are promising as safe, next-generation magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) tools. Nevertheless, stimuli-responsive ORCAs that enable MRI monitoring of prodrug activation have not been reported; such systems could open new avenues for prodrug validation and image-guided drug delivery. Here, we introduce a novel "pro-ORCA" concept that addresses this challenge. By covalent conjugation of nitroxides and drug molecules (doxorubicin, DOX) to the same brush-arm star polymer (BASP) through chemically identical cleavable linkers, we demonstrate that pro-ORCA and prodrug activation, i.e., ORCA and DOX release, leads to significant changes in MRI contrast that correlate with cytotoxicity. This approach is shown to be general for a range of commonly used linker cleavage mechanisms (e.g., photolysis and hydrolysis) and release rates. Pro-ORCAs could find applications as research tools or clinically viable "reporter theranostics" for in vitro and in vivo MRI-correlated prodrug activation.

Abstract
Active targeting and precise control of drug release based on nanoparticle therapies are urgently required to precisely treat cancer. We have custom-synthesized a functional lipid (termed Fa-ONB) by introducing a folic acid-targeting group into an o-nitro-benzyl ester lipid. As designed, the liposomes formed by Fa-ONB combine active targeting and dual trigger release capabilities, which help to improve drug efficacy and reduce the toxicity of traditional liposomes. We first verified that both pH-induced hydrolysis and light treatment were able to cleave the Fa-ONB lipid. We then prepared a series of liposomes (termed FOBD liposomes) by compounding the Fa-ONB lipid with DOPC at different ratios. After encapsulation of doxorubicin (DOX), we found that the particle size of DOX-loaded FOBD liposomes (DOX/FOBD) first increased (290 to 700 nm) and then decreased again (to 400 nm) under continuous UV irradiation (120 min). The photocatalytic release efficiency under different pH conditions was investigated by dialysis experiments, and it was found that the release efficiency in an acidic environment was significantly increased relative to neutral pH. This pH-triggered release response helps distinguish pathological tissues such as lysosomal compartments and tumors. The light-induced formation of a DOX precipitate increases in efficiency with increasing UV exposure time as well as with increasing environmental acidity or alkalinity. In addition, confocal imaging and flow cytometry showed that the ability of FOBD lipids to actively target HeLa cells increased with increasing Fa-ONB lipid content. Real-time in vivo fluorescence small animal experiments proved targeting to tumors and pH- and photo-induced release properties. Furthermore, therapeutic experiments using a mouse model found a significant tumor inhibitory effect for DOX/FOBD55 liposomes with UV irradiation, clearly demonstrating the benefit of light treatment: the tumor size of the control (PBS) group was 7.59 times that of the light treatment group. Therefore, this research demonstrates the benefits of combining triggerable release functions and effective active tumor targeting in one small lipid molecule for precise cancer treatment.

Abstract
HYPOTHESIS The controllable transfer of colloidal particles across liquid-liquid interfaces has attracted great interests in synthesis of new materials and stabilization of emulsions. Can we find new ways of controlled transferring particles across liquid-liquid interface with reversible transfer directions and size manipulation? EXPERIMENTS A technique of bidirectional transfer of colloidal particles in an aqueous two-phase system (ATPS) under electric pulse was developed. The influences of electric pulse, ATPS composition, surfactant concentration, ionic strength and particle size on the particle transfer were investigated systematically. FINDINGS Under electric pulses, particles overcome the energy barrier at the liquid-liquid interface and transfer into the other phase. The action of particle transfer is determined by the voltage of electric pulse, and the transfer direction is reversible by exchanging the direction of electric pulse. The ATPS composition, surfactant concentration, ionic strength and particle size affect the particle transfer by changing the free energy of particle detachment. With this method, the targeted transfer of particles by size can be realized by controlling the strength of electric pulse. The proposed method provides a promising technique for transfer of particles across liquid-liquid interface with advantages of fast response and precise control.

A multifunctional lipid that forms contrast-agent liposomes with dual-control release capabilities for precise MRI-guided drug delivery. Biomaterials 2019; 221:119412.

Abstract
Monitoring of nanoparticle-based therapy in vivo and controlled drug release are urgently needed for the precise treatment of disease. We have synthesized a multifunctional Gd-DTPA-ONB (GDO) lipid by introducing the Gd-DTPA contrast agent moiety into an o-nitro-benzyl ester lipid. By design, liposomes formed from the GDO lipid combine MRI tracking ability and dual-trigger release capabilities with maximum sensitivity (because all lipids bear the cleavable moiety) without reducing the drug encapsulation rate. We first confirmed that both photo-treatment and pH-triggered hydrolysis are able to cleave the GDO lipid and lyse GDO liposomes. We then investigated the efficiency of drug release via the combined release processes for GDO liposomes loaded with doxorubicin (DOX). Relative to neutral pH, the release efficiency in acidic environment increased by 10.4% (at pH = 6.5) and 13.3% (at pH = 4.2). This pH-dependent release response is conducive to distinguishing pathological tissue such as tumors and endolysosomal compartments. The photo-induced release efficiency increases with illumination time as well as with distance of the pH from neutral. Photolysis increased the release efficiency by 13.8% at pH = 4.2, which is remarkable considering the already increased amount of drug release in the acidic environment. In addition, the relaxation time of GDO liposomes was 4.1 times that of clinical Gd-DTPA, with brighter T1-weighted imaging in vitro and in vivo. Real-time MRI imaging and in vivo fluorescence experiments demonstrated tumor targeting and MRI guided release. Furthermore, significant tumor growth inhibition in a treatment experiment using DOX-loaded GDO liposomes clearly demonstrated the benefit of photo-treatment for efficacy: the tumor size in the photo-treatment group was 3.7 times smaller than in the control group. The present study thus highlights the benefit of the design idea of combining efficient imaging/guiding, targeting, and triggerable release functions in one lipid molecule for drug delivery applications.

Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) printing has revolutionized the world manufacturing production. In biomedical applications, however, 3D printed constructs fell short of expectations mainly due to their inability to adequately mimic the dynamic human tissues. To date, most of the 3D printed biomedical structures are largely static and inanimate as they lack the time-dependant dimension. To adequately address the dynamic healing and regeneration process of human tissues, 4D printing emerges as an important development where "time" is incorporated into the conventional concept of 3D printing as the fourth dimension. As such, additive manufacturing (AM) evolves from 3D to 4D printing and in the process putting stimulus-responsive materials in the limelight. In this review, the state-of-the-art efforts in integrating the time-dependent behaviour of stimulus-responsive materials in 4D printing will be discussed. In addition, current literatures on the interactions between various types of stimuli (categorized under physical, chemical and biological signals) with the associated stimulus-responsive materials will be the major focus in this review. Lastly, potential usage of 4D printing in biomedical applications will also be discussed, followed by technical considerations as well as outlook for future discoveries. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: In this Review, we have demonstrated the significance of 4D printing in biomedical applications, in which "time" has been incorporated into the conventional concept of 3D printing as the 4th dimension. As such, 4D printing differentiates and evolves from 3D printing using stimulus-responsive materials which can actively respond to external stimuli and more sophisticated "hardware"-printer which can achieve multi-printing via mathematical-predicted designs that are programmed to consider the transformation of 3D constructs over time. The emphasize will be on the interactions between various types of stimuli (categorized under physical, chemical and biological signals) with the associated stimulus-responsive materials, followed by technical considerations as well as outlook for future discoveries.

Abstract
An amphiphilic block copolymer (BCP) which contains both photoresponsive and thermoresponsive blocks was synthesized by the atom transfer radical polymerization approach. Meanwhile, a new core/shell type of the upconversion nanoparticle (UCNP) LiYF4:Yb3+ 0.25,Tm3+ 0.01@LiYF4:Yb3+ 0.2 was successfully synthesized. By encapsulating UCNPs inside the micelles of the BCP and incorporating Nile red (NR) into the UCNP@BCP hybrid nanoparticles as a model drug, controlled release of the drug by the dual-stimuli BCP could be studied. After exposing the UCNP-loaded micellar solution to near-infrared (NIR) light, it was found that the UV light pumped from UCNPs could disrupt the polymer micelles and the fluorescence intensity of NR decreased with the increase of the irradiation time of the NIR light. The thermoresponsive study indicated that the fluorescence intensity of NR decreased with the increase of temperature of the micellar solution because of the release of NR into water arising from the contraction of the amphiphilic BCP.

Abstract
The microenvironment characteristics of solid tumors, renowned as barriers that harshly impeded many drug-delivery approaches, were precisely studied, investigated, categorized, divided, and subdivided into a complex diverse of barriers. These categories were further studied with a particular perspective, which makes all barriers found in solid-tumor micromilieu turn into different types of stimuli, and were considered triggers that can increase and hasten drug-release targeting efficacy. This review gathers data concerning the nature of solid-tumor micromilieu. Past research focused on the treatment of such tumors, the recent efforts employed for engineering smart nanoarchitectures with the utilization of the specified stimuli categories, the possibility of combining more than one stimuli for much-greater targeting enhancement, examples of the approved nanoarchitectures that already translated clinically as well as the obstacles faced by the use of these nanostructures, and, finally, an overview of the possible future implementations of smart-chemical engineering for the design of more-efficient drug delivery and theranostic systems and for making nanosystems with a much-higher level of specificity and penetrability features.

Abstract
Polymeric micelles based on light-responsive block copolymers were prepared and used for the phototunable detection of mercury(II) ions. 2-Nitrobenzyl acrylate (NBA) and ( E)-2-((4-((4-formylphenyl)diazenyl)phenyl)(methyl)amino) ethyl acrylate (FPDEA) were copolymerized from a poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) macroinitiator via atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP), leading to a well-defined block copolymer of PEO113- b-[p(NBA10- co-FPDEA3)] with a low polydispersity index (PDI = 1.16). After polymerization, the aldehyde groups of PEO- b-[p(NBA- co-FPDEA)] were converted to aldoxime groups by reacting with hydroxylamine, leading to the formation of a final oxime-containing polymeric probe, PEO- b-[p(NBA- co-HPDEA)], P1. The resulting block copolymer, P1, was self-assembled in water to yield spherical micelles that consist of a PEO block forming a hydrophilic shell and a copolymer of light-responsive NBA and a mercury(II) ion-detecting HPDEA block forming a hydrophobic core. Upon the addition of mercury(II) ions to this micellar solution, no detection was observed since water-soluble mercury(II) ions have limited accessability to the oxime units of P1, which are located in the hydrophobic core. After UV light irradiation, however, the photolabile 2-nitrobenzyl moieties were cleaved, and hydrophobic PNBA was transformed to hydrophilic poly(acrylic acid) (PAA), leading to the photoinduced dissociation of micelles to unimers. As a result, the oxime units of P1 were exposed to a hydrophilic environment and could react with mercury(II) ions to form nitrile groups, resulting in the turn-on detection of mercury(II) ions by UV light irradiation.

Abstract
The intensity ratio between the first (373 nm) and the third (383 nm) vibronic peaks [I 1/I 3, as the pyrene (Py) scale] of fluorescent Py was used to monitor the critical concentration, drug-loading, and -releasing behaviors of a Py-terminated, amphiphilic polypeptide PPM and its hydrogen-bonded interpolymer complex (HIPC) with poly(acrylic acid) (PAA). Primarily, an amphiphilic PPM with a hydrophobic Py terminal and hydrophilic methoxy-bis(ethylene oxide) pendant groups was synthesized through multiple preparative steps, and the resultant PPM was thoroughly mixed with PAA through a preferable hydrogen bond (H bond) interaction to form HIPC. The emission study suggested that the I 1/I 3 ratio and the quantum yield (ΦF) are effective in determining the critical concentrations of the aqueous PPM and PPM/PAA solutions. Moreover, the I 1/I 3 ratio and ΦF were found to be convenient measures for determining the amounts of doxorubicin drugs loaded by and released from the aqueous PPM and PPM/PAA solutions.

Abstract
The focus of this review is on the class of transiently thermoresponsive polymers. These polymers are thermoresponsive, but gradually lose this property upon chemical transformation - often a hydrolysis reaction - in the polymer side chain or backbone. An overview of the different approaches used for the design of these polymers along with their physicochemical properties is given. Their amphiphilic properties and degradability into fully soluble compounds make this class of responsive polymers attractive for drug delivery and tissue engineering applications. Examples of these are also provided in this review.

Abstract
Thermal and photo responsive copolymer based on N-vinylamide backbone was designed. Methoxyethyl group and azobenzene were selected to improve hydrophilicity and photoresponsive moieties, respectively. The N-(methoxyethyl)-N-vinylformamide was synthesized and copolymerized with N-vinylformamide by free radical polymerization. In order to control the nanosized structures, poly(N-vinylformamide) derivatives bearing azobenzene at the N-position near to the vinyl polymer main chain were synthesized by polymer reaction with the poly(N-vinylformamide-co-N-(methoxyethyl)-N-vinylformamide) and azobenzene. Aggregation size of the multi-stimuli-responsive polymer was controlled by preparation of the hydrophobic interaction at around N-position.

Abstract
Molecular design of stimuli-sensitive polymers has been attracting considerable interest of chemists because of their latent ability to achieve smart materials. Heat, light, pH, and chemicals have been often utilized as a stimuli-inducing polymer phase transition from solution to aggregation and vice versa. In this report, as a new trigger for lower critical solution temperature (LCST)-type polymer phase transition, we introduce organic reaction of small organic molecules, not to the polymer chain itself. The addition of the reactant for the "effector", which can interact with the polymer chain for increasing the compatibility of the polymer chain with the media, caused a polymer phase separation, due to reduction of the solvation ability of the effector to the polymer chain. In other words, decrease of the "effector" concentration induced the polymer phase separation. Within our knowledge, this is the first report to connect a polymer phase separation with organic reaction dynamics. This process will be the first step for the development of artificial allosteric enzyme mimics from a combination of a simple synthetic polymer and a product or reactant in organic reactions.

Abstract
Compared with traditional stimuli-responsive devices with simple planar or tubular geometries, 3D printed stimuli-responsive devices not only intimately meet the requirement of complicated shapes at macrolevel but also satisfy various conformation changes triggered by external stimuli at the microscopic scale. However, their development is limited by the lack of 3D printing functional materials. This paper demonstrates the 3D printing of photoresponsive shape memory devices through combining fused deposition modeling printing technology and photoresponsive shape memory composites based on shape memory polymers and carbon black with high photothermal conversion efficiency. External illumination triggers the shape recovery of 3D printed devices from the temporary shape to the original shape. The effect of materials thickness and light density on the shape memory behavior of 3D printed devices is quantified and calculated. Remarkably, sunlight also triggers the shape memory behavior of these 3D printed devices. This facile printing strategy would provide tremendous opportunities for the design and fabrication of biomimetic smart devices and soft robotics.

Abstract
This review focuses on block copolymers featuring different photo-responsive building blocks and self-assembly of such materials in different selective solvents. We have subdivided the specific examples we selected: (1) according to the wavelength at which the irradiation has to be carried out to achieve photo-response; and (2) according to whether irradiation with light of a suitable wavelength leads to reversible or irreversible changes in material properties (e.g., solubility, charge, or polarity). Exemplarily, an irreversible change could be the photo-cleavage of a nitrobenzyl, pyrenyl or coumarinyl ester, whereas the photo-mediated transition between spiropyran and merocyanin form as well as the isomerization of azobenzenes would represent reversible response to light. The examples presented cover applications including drug delivery (controllable release rates), controlled aggregation/disaggregation, sensing, and the preparation of photochromic hybrid materials.
